Subject: School on Matrices/Linear Algebra, Rome & Moscow, Sep/Oct 2010
I would like make you know about a beautiful interesting joint initiative of
the universities of Rome "Tor Vergata" and Lomonosov Moscow State.
The Rome-Moscow school of Matrix Methods and Applied Linear Algebra
19th September - 3th October 2010, University of Rome "Tor Vergata" (TV)
10th - 24th October 2010,Lomonosov Moscow State University (LMSU)
The school will take place during a whole month, two weeks in Rome and two
weeks in Moscow, offering to young students a long time for learning and
thinking over the arguments proposed, not limited to short courses of
seminars. The school proposes advanced scientific topics and the opportunity
of entering in direct contact with people and institutions of excellence in
the field.
The main courses are: Future of tensor computations: theory, algorithms and
applications in many and few dimensions (E. TYRTYSHNIKOV), Condensed
forms for
matrices under unitary similarities and congruences: theoretical
problems and
computational implications (K. IKRAMOV), Matrix structures and applications
(D. BERTACCINI, C. DI FIORE, P. ZELLINI), Eigenvalues of large
Toeplitz matrices: asymptotic approach (S. GRUDSKY, in Moscow), A unified
tight-frame approach for missing data recovery in images (R. CHAN, in Rome).
Further seminars will be held by local expert researchers.

Lisbon (Caparica), Portugal
July 24-27, 2011
(first announcement)
Department of Mathematics
Faculdade de Ciencias e Tecnologia
Universidade Nova de Lisboa
Optimization 2011 is the seventh edition of a series of Optimization
international conferences held every three or four years, in Portugal.
This meeting aims to bring together researchers and practitioners
from different areas and with distinct backgrounds, but with common
interests in optimization. This conference series has international
recognition as an important forum of discussion and exchange of
ideas, being organized under the auspices of APDIO (the Portuguese
Operations Research Society).
In this edition, we feel honored to celebrate the 60th anniversary
of our dear colleague Joaquim Joao Judice (Univ. of Coimbra).

Subject: PostDoc and PhDs Fellowships at Univ Bergen, Norway
2 PhD + 1 PostDoc fellowships - University of Bergen, Norway
The research group shall participate in the project
"Multiscale Domain Decomposition: Algorithms and Analysis".
The primary objective of the project is to investigate
new Multiscale algorithms based on the framework of
domain decomposition.
This project will run from summer 2010 to summer 2014.
The PhD students should have a strong background in and interest
for applied and computational mathematics equivalent to a MSc degree.
The PhD students will join a research group in Bergen with further
international relations to leading scientists in Poland and China.
The Postdoc should have a recent PhD in a topic relevant for
the work outlined above. The initial appointment will be for 2 years.
Project Summary:
Multiscale in the framework of Domain Decomposition:
Understand Multiscale methods in the framework of Domain
Decomposition methods, derive and analyze effective methods
exploiting the features of Multiscale methods and involving the
computational power of the Domain Decomposition iteration.
Multiscale Domain Decomposition with less regular subdomains:
In the first part, we assume that the coarse cells, consequently the
subdomains, are typically the union of few coarse triangle or
rectangles in the 2D, which is not realistic. In this part of the
project, we will consider subdomains which are less regular.
The proposed project aims at understanding the existing Multiscale
methods, developing new algorithms and their theoretical analysis
based on the theory of Domain Decomposition methods.
Contacts:
The 3 positions are open for applications now and until the
successful applicants have been selected.
