Subject: Improved version, A Possible Proof of Goldbach's Conjecture


The Conjecture asserts that each even positive integer >= 4 is the sum
of two primes. The improved version of the possible proof (2-1/2
pages) is simpler than previous ones. The paper also contains a
description of the remarkable behavior of pairs of primes relative to
each even positive integer.

I will welcome comments.

The paper is on occampress.com.

The project idea is to perform many runs with cloud model CM1 to
simulate and understand the formation of shallow cumulus clouds over
land from early morning until early afternoon. This part is based on
increasing understanding of this delicate process. We then machine
learn the relation between meteorological variables of the early
morning and cloud cover in early afternoon. As a next step we will
perform data assimilation with CM1 to obtain a better description and
understanding of the shallow-cumulus formation process. The
data-assimilation results will also be used to fine-tune the machine
learning model. The project is a collaboration between the research
groups of profs Van Leeuwen and Chiu at Colorado State University.

Proficient programming skills. Keen interest in the development and
implementation of numerical methods.

Background on the Topic: The lattice Boltzmann method stands out as a
highly attractive and parallelizable algorithm for fluid flow
simulations. This project aims to advance transparent boundary
conditions, a critical aspect in reducing expansive physical domains
to more manageable computational domains. The goal is to ensure that
the boundary does not interact with the fluid, minimizing effects such
as wave reflections.

Application Deadline:
December 15th, 2023, with the intended start date in March 2024.

Requirements: Join us in pushing the boundaries of applied mathematics
and computational engineering. This PhD position offers a unique
opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research with a team of
international advisors. We welcome enthusiastic candidates to apply
and be part of our dynamic research community. We are looking for
highly qualified and motivated scientists and engineers. Candidates
are expected to hold a Master's degree, a German Diploma or an
equivalent degree at the start of their PhD project. Involvement in
national and international collaborations requires a willingness to
cooperate in teams. We expect you to be able to communicate your
results orally and in writing in good English.

Selection: Candidates are asked to submit an academic CV and a
motivation letter (max 1 page). The best candidates will be invited
for an online interview. The earliest possible start date is March
2024, but later starts are possible. Funding will be provided for
three years.

For inquiries and application submission, please contact Andreas
Bartel at bartel@uni-wuppertal.de.

Applications are invited for PhD studies in Optimization and Operational
Research at the School of Mathematics at the University of Edinburgh
for the academic year 2024-2025. A degree in mathematics or
operational research is not an application requirement. Our PhD
students have backgrounds in engineering, mathematics, computer
science, business, physical sciences, or related fields.

The School of Mathematics offers several fully funded PhD studentships
each year. Students receiving School funding are awarded a competitive
stipend equivalent to UKRI stipend rates (£18,622 per year for the
current academic year) for a period of 4 years plus tuition fee waiver. All
applications received by 22 January 2024 will receive full consideration
for funding. Later applications will be considered until all positions are
filled.

Why Study Optimization and Operational Research in Edinburgh?

The Optimization and Operational Research Group in the School of
Mathematics is an international leader in the mathematical and
computing aspects of optimization and operational research, core
elements of Data Science, with members of high repute, as evidenced
by Editorial Board Memberships in major international journals,
international research awards, fellowships, and other peer recognitions,
and memberships of prestigious international societies. The group
members collaborate with several research groups in the UK and
overseas, and are actively engaged in collaborations with industry and
government.

Subject: CFP, Special Issue on Matrix Computations and Statistics, CSDA


We are inviting submissions for the 4th special issue of Computational
Statistics and Data Analysis dealing with Matrix Computations and
Statistics.

A number of interesting and important ideas have resulted from the
relationship between matrix computations and statistics. Well known
examples include the solution of least squares problems, computation
of the singular value decomposition and its generalizations, tensor
computations, estimation of principal components, computation of
canonical correlations, several cluster analysis algorithms, and the
solution of total least squares problems. Applications of matrix
computations and statistics in data mining, text mining, dimension
reduction/feature extraction and machine learning are welcome.

CSDA has published a series of issues in Matrix Computations and
Statistics (41(1), 50(1), 54(12)), which can be found at:
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/journal/01679473

Submissions for the 4th special issue should contain both a matrix
computations and a statistics component. Authors who are uncertain
about the suitability of their papers should contact the special issue
editors. All submissions must contain original unpublished work not
being considered for publication elsewhere.

Submissions will be refereed according to standard procedures for
Computational Statistics and Data Analysis. Information about the
journal can be found at http://www.elsevier.com/locate/csda.

The deadline for submissions is 30 August 2024. However, papers can be
submitted at any time; and, when they have been received, they will
enter the editorial system immediately.

Papers for the special issue should be submitted using the Elsevier
Electronic Submission tool EM: https://www.editorialmanager.com/csda/.
In the EM, please choose the special issue "Matrix Computations and
Statistics" and the Co-Editor responsible for the special issues.
