AT THE
JOHANN RADON INSTITUTE FOR COMPUTATIONAL AND APPLIED MATHEMATICS
(RICAM)
OF THE AUSTRIAN ACADEMY OF SCIENCES, AUSTRIA
RICAM is a research institute which went into operation on January 1,
2003, and will be gradually built up to a total of 25 PostDoc
positions in six areas:
Scientific Computing - Computational Methods for Direct Field Problems
Scientific Computing - Inverse Problems
Scientific Computing - Optimization and Control
Symbolic Computation
Analysis of Partial Differential Equations
Mathematical Finance
The institute is housed on the campus of the Johannes Kepler
Universität in Linz, a town of about 200.000 on the Danube, very close
to the Austrian Alps, and half-way between Vienna and Salzburg.
The "Mathematical Finance Group" is looking for a PostDoc with a
strong interest and research experience in the "Applications of
stochastic processes in finance".
This position is expected to be available from March 1, 2004.
Further information can be obtained from one of the group leaders
Prof. Gerhard Larcher <gerhard.larcher(a)jku.at>
Prof. Walter Schachermayer <wschach(a)fam.tuwien.ac.at>
The "Scientific computing - Optimization and Control Group" is
searching two PostDocs with a strong background in applications to
partial differential equations or variational problems. For
information contact Prof.K. Kunisch at: karl.kunisch(a)uni-graz.at
PostDocs interested to work in one of the other research areas are
encouraged to inquire with the director, Prof. Heinz W. Engl at,
heinz.engl(a)oeaw.ac.at
For all positions a doctorate in mathematics or a closely related
field is required. The working language is English.
The positions are initially for up to three years, one renewal for
three more years is possible depending on achievements.
Two sets of applications with personal and scientific data, copies of
relevant documents and a statement about scientific interests and
achievements should be sent to
Prof. Heinz W. Engl

Subject: Postdoctoral positions available
Dear Colleague
Oxford University is able to appoint to one or two postdoctoral research
positions in Mathematical Finance, based in the Mathematical Institute,
and I am writing to ask for your help in bringing this opportunity to the
attention of any strong potential candidates. The post arises out of the
success of our part-time Masters course in Mathematical Finance, and the
postholders will be asked to undertake a small amount of teaching on that
programme. The post are for two years, renewable for a third.
We attract outstanding graduate students in finance, have a thriving and
substantial Masters programme with core funding from the European
financial sector, and have a strong and diverse group of faculty working
in the subject. An important goal in making this appointment will be to
support Oxford as a leading centre for finance in Europe.
Details of the post are on
http://www.maths.ox.ac.uk/notices/vacancies/institute/postdoc14.shtml
I will be happy to try to answer any questions you may have.
Best regards
Sam Howison howison(a)maths.ox.ac.uk

Subject: Cambridge University - Lectureship Vacancy
Can I draw your attention to two positions that we currently
have vacant?
http://www.statslab.cam.ac.uk/Vacancies/
These are established positions, for mid-career or junior
colleagues with active research in mathematical finance (or
possibly probability or statistics); we are able to appoint at
any point on the stated salary scale, and the positions are
extremely attractive in addition because:
* Cambridge teaching is completed in three 8-week blocks
* If the person appointed does not become a Fellow of a
College, the teaching duties are lecturing (typically in
the range 40-60 hours per year) and examining.
* The students here are outstandingly good, and lecture
courses can be set at a high level and fast pace
* The Centre for Mathematical Sciences is one of the largest
and most impressive centres for mathematics in the world
* There are strong links with colleagues in Economics and
the Judge Institute of Management.
The closing date for applications is 5th January 2004.
Chris Rogers
