Subject: PIMS-CMM Frontiers in Mathematics and Economics
The Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences is pleased to
announce the Summer School Frontiers in Mathematics and Economics, at
the University of British Columbia, July 10-31, 2006
http://www.pims.math.ca/science/2006/06ssfme/
Please also find the attached poster for the summer school.
[attachment removed by admin; info available at above URL]
The summer school brings together graduate students, postdoctoral
fellows and young faculty members from business schools, economics,
mathematics and operations research with leading economists and
mathematicians. It exposes students in business administration and
economics to mathematical models and methods that they will find useful
in their research, and graduate students and young researchers in
mathematics and operations research to new mathematical problems arising
from economic theory.
The main focus of the summer school is a set of four courses, each
taught by world leaders in the corresponding discipline. All courses are
accompanied by introductory tutorials and a series of seminar presentations.
1. Topic: Dynamic Contract Theory and Corporate Finance
Lecturer: Jean-Charles Rochet (Professor of Mathematics and
Economics, U. Toulouse I)
2. Topic: Equilibrium: Theory and Computation
Lecturers: Kenneth L. Judd (Senior Fellow, Hoover Institution on
War, Revolution and Peace),
R. Tyrrell Rockafellar, (Professor of Mathematics, U. Washington),
Roger Wets (Professor of Mathematics, UC, Davis)
3. Topic: Information and Markets
Lecturer: William R. Zame (Professor of Mathematics and Economics,
UC, Los Angeles)
4. Topic: The mathematical Structure of Quality Pricing
Lecturer: Ivar Ekeland (Professor of Mathematics and Economics, UBC)

Subject: Invitation to apply to VGSF PhD Program - scholarship
Dear Colleague,
please find attached an invitation to apply for scholarships and
admission to the PhD program of the Vienna Graduate School of Finance
(VGSF).
We would be very grateful if you could forward this information to
students who are looking for an opportunity to obtain a PhD in Finance
with financial support allowing them to cover their costs of living in
Vienna. Also, I would appreciate if you could post the attached pdf
document at your department.
The VGSF offers a high-quality PhD program preparing students for an
academic career. As a joint venture of three established academic
institutions, the VGSF draws on a well-connected local faculty with very
diverse research interests. In addition, internationally leading
scholars affiliated with other academic institutions are teaching in our
program.
On our homepage www.vgsf.ac.at you will find the curriculum as well as
