Applications are invited for several PhD and Postdoc positions funded by the ERC Consolidator Grant project Computational Complexity of Highly Nonlinear Approximations at RWTH Aachen. The positions will be available starting July 1st, 2025, but later starting dates are possible. The aim of the project is to investigate numerical methods for high-dimensional partial different equations based on nonlinear approximations such as low-rank tensor decompositions, anisotropic Gaussians and neural networks, with focus on the computational costs of reliable solvers. For certain parts of the project, expertise in mathematical aspects of quantum chemistry is particularly welcome. For further details and how to apply, see https://www.igpm.rwth-aachen.de/stellen

Dear all, please note that the registration for abstracts at the GAMM annual meeting held from April  7-11 in Poznan (Poland) ends on December 15th. Our activity group will have again our own section (S26) fix in the program. In recent years, we had around 27 talks in average  on our subject making the meeting a wonderful place for discussion and exchange of ideas. It is tradition to have one or two longer keynote-speakers in the section. This year, we’re happy to let you know that we will have Tony Lelièvre (Ecole des Ponts) and Jiří Vaníček (EPFL) as keynote-speakers in our section. It would be great to see you numerous again this year! You find more information about the conference here [1] and can register here [2]. I'm looking forward to the meeting!
