Our annual meeting will be at TU Munich, at the TUM Institute for Advanced Study, on Thu/Fri 20/21 November 2025. Please reserve the date in your diary, and consider contributing a talk! As usual the bulk of the program will be members' presentations. The meeting will start Thu 11:15 and finish Fri 13:15. More information will follow soon. Gero (Friesecke)

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
