Switzerland: PhD Position in Applied Mathematics at ETH Zurich 2009 2010
Switzerland: PhD Position in Applied Mathematics at ETH Zurich 2009 2010
PhD positions
on sparse tensor approximation methods for high-dimensional transport
problems
The Seminar for Applied Mathematics of ETH Zuerich
(http://www.sam.math.ethz.ch/)offers a full PhD position in the
framework of a project on “Sparse Tensor Approximation Methods for
High-Dimensional Transport Problems”.
Sparse tensor product approximations also known as sparse grids have
emerged as a powerful tool for the numerical treatment of
high-dimensional problems in areas as diverse as quantitative finance,
deterministic methods for stochastic PDEs, and data mining. The area
is still rapidly evolving and offers fascinating research
opportunities. Researchers at the Seminar for Applied Mathematics of
ETH Zuerich are among the leaders in the field.
In this project sparse tensor product approximation is to be explored
as a novel approach to kinetic equations, see
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jcp.2008.02.025 . The PhD project will
have a focus on efficient algorithms and data structures, which is
an exciting challenge in its own right. The PhD work will be jointly
supervised by Prof. C. Schwab and Prof. R. Hiptmair.
The positions is temporary and limited to 3-4 years after a three
month period of probation. The holder will be regular ETH research
staff and receive a gross salary of roughly 66,000 Swiss Francs (about
EUR 41.000, USD 55.000). The positions will involve teaching of
tutorial lectures, supervision of undergraduate students, and grading
of examinations equivalent to a total workload of about 10h/week.
Candidates must have a master or diploma degree in mathematics, a
(computational) engineering discipline, or in (computational) science.
Their education record should indicate strong interest and exceptional
skills in computer simulation as well as familiarity with important
numerical methods for the approximate solution partial differential
equations (finite elements, finite volumes, etc.). Experience with
object oriented programming in C++ is essential.
Knowledge of German is not required, but the candidates must possess
good communication skills and should be fluent in English, both oral
and in writing.
Applications should be sent electronically (as PDF files) to Ms.
Ballarin (ballarin@sam.math.ethz.ch). They must include
* a curriculum vita complete with date of birth and family status
* a complete record of academic education including grades and all
achievements.
* abstracts of theses (master etc.) and descriptions of projects done
before graduation. (include theses, reports and papers, if possible)
* Complete addresses (including e-mail) of two established academic
researchers who can give an assessment of the candidate’s skills.
Deadline: March 31, 2009 (position may be filled on a first come first
served basis)
