A provably stable reduced order model, based on a projection onto a scaled orthonormal Laguerre basis, followed by a SVD step, is proposed. The method relies on the conformal mapping properties induced by the complete orthonormal scaled Laguerre basis, allowing a mapping from the discrete-stable case to the continuous-stable case and vice versa.

In this paper, we give an explicit method for mapping any simply connected surface onto the sphere in a manner which preserves angles. This technique relies on certain conformal mappings from differential geometry. Our method provides a new way to automatically assign texture coordinates to complex undulating surfaces. We demonstrate a finite element method that can be used to apply our mapping...
