Subject: Andreas Griewank

It is our sad duty to inform you about the passing away of Andreas
Griewank.

On the morning of the 16th of September 2021, Andreas developed chest
pain and severe fatigue. Heading for emergency surgery he underwent
cardiac arrest and further measures could not bring him back.

We would have liked to have him with us longer, however believe a
quick exit out of still fairly good health and a fulfilled life to
look back on fits the Andreas we knew and loved.

Subject: Software Release, pyMOR 2021.1.0

We are proud to announce the release of pyMOR 2021.1.0! This release
includes several new reductors for LTI systems. In particular, methods
for reducing and analyzing unstable systems have been added. ANNs can
now be used in order to directly approximate output
quantities. Furthermore, it is now possible to work with
time-dependent parameters in pyMOR.

7th IMA Conference on Numerical Linear Algebra and Optimization
29 June - 1 July 2022, University of Birmingham, UK
https://ima.org.uk/12530/7th-ima-conference-on-numerical-linear-algebra-and-
optimization/

The IMA is pleased to announce the Seventh Biennial IMA Conference on
Numerical Linear Algebra and Optimization.  The success of modern
codes for large-scale optimization is heavily dependent on the use of
effective tools of numerical linear algebra. On the other hand, many
problems in numerical linear algebra lead to linear, nonlinear or
semidefinite optimization problems. The purpose of the conference is
to bring together researchers from both communities and to find and
communicate points and topics of common interest. This Conference has
been organised in cooperation with the Society for Industrial and
Applied Mathematics (SIAM).

Conference topics include any subject that could be of interest to
both communities, such as: Direct and iterative methods for large
sparse linear systems; Eigenvalue computation and optimization;
Large-scale nonlinear and semidefinite programming; Effect of
round-off errors, stopping criteria, embedded iterative procedures;
Optimization issues for matrix polynomials; Fast matrix computations;
Compressed/sparse sensing; PDE-constrained optimization; Distributed
computing and optimization; Applications and real time optimization.

Invited Speakers to be confirmed shortly.

increasing diversity among our students, faculty, and staff and thus a
successful candidate will also display this core value of our
university.  Experience in teaching and working in an academic
environment is essential, however, experience working in and with
industry is also valued.  The Department Head will be responsible for
leading an integrated faculty of mathematicians and statisticians to
increase the volume and impact of their research, for enhancing the
computational mathematics, statistics and data science graduate
programs through recruiting and retaining talented students, and for
promoting excellence in instruction in the Department degree programs
and service courses. The Department Head's leadership and new
directions should be aligned within the Mines strategic university
plan (Mines@150) and emphasize society's major challenges related to
earth, energy, environment, and sustainability.  Successful candidates
will also share the Mines goals of creating a sustainable global
society by educating the next generation of scientists, engineers, and
leaders, and by expanding the frontiers of knowledge through research
and will evidence a passion for advancing the University's and
Department's commitment to diversity and inclusion.

decades, significant advances have been made in the design and
analysis of FPT algorithms for a wide variety of graph
problems. However, these theoretical algorithmic ideas have received
very little attention from the practical perspective. This project
aims to bridge the gap between theory and practice currently observed
in FPT or kernelization approaches.  Further responsibilities as part
of the position include the supervision of bachelor and master
students and possibly TA duties.  Requirements: Very good university
degree (Master or equivalent) in computer science or a related field;
Willingness to learn and later assist teaching in German; Solid skills
in software development and in the theoretical analysis of algorithms
(evidenced by your thesis or relevant courses); knowledge in
combinatorial algorithms and linear algebra is particularly desirable;
Self-motivation, team spirit and willingness to work in
interdisciplinary projects; Knowledge in parallel programming (in
