Dear students, Dear colleagues,

Opening meeting of all students of mathematical modelling (fixing the schedule for optional lectures, brief discussion on topics of bachelor/master thesis, overview of available scholarships/projects/stays abroad and so on) will take place on Thursday, October 3 at 14:00 in the room K433 (seminar room, Department of Numerical Mathematics, Karlín). We kindly ask all students to participate in the meeting!

If you want to stay in touch with us, please subscribe to our weekly email digest/newsletter.

Christoph Allolio is building a new research group at the Mathematical Institute, and he is looking for PhD students and postdocs. Please see the attached leaflet for details.

18th Jarník lecture will be given by Martin Hairer (Imperial College London), the lecture will take place in the lecture hall M1 at 14:00 on 2nd October 2019. Please see the attached leaflet for details.

Dear students, if you are just thinking about suitable optional courses for the academic year 2019-2020, we would like to draw your attention to the course High-performance computing for computational science that will be taught by Erin Carson. We are absolutely sure that you will enjoy this course!

Dear colleagues, dear students,

It is our pleasure to announce that Helena Švihlová has been awarded by the Bolzano Prize for her work “Determination of pressure data from velocity data with a view towards its application in cardiovascular mechanics“. Congratulations! You can read the interview with Helena on the faculty webpage.

Dear colleagues, dear students,

It is our pleasure to announce that Jan Zeman has been awarded by the second place in the student competition SVOČ 2019. His work “Gradient polyconvexity and its application to problems of mathematical elasticity and plasticity” has been awarded in section M7/8 Applied mathematics. Congratulations!

We would also like to thank the other participants for the good representation of our university. Thank you!

Dear colleagues, Barbora Benešová (Prague), Manuel Friedrich (Münster) and Martin Kružík (Prague) are organising workshop “Mathematics for Mechanics”. The workshop will take place in Prague on October 29 – November 1, 2019. For more information please visit the workshop website (http://m4m.utia.cas.cz/).

We cordially invite you to participate in the annual trip of the Mathematical modelling department.

This year the ~8km route starts at Černý most, leads through Klánovický les and ends in a restaurant in Klánovice (see https://goo.gl/maps/JJSkFWfveGA2 for details). You are welcome to bring your spouses, children (the route is stroller-friendly), friends, and dogs.
Date: Wednesday, May 1 2019 (May Day, public holiday)
Starting point: 9am near Černý most metro station (open space by Bryksova street, see https://goo.gl/maps/JJSkFWfveGA2 for details)
End point: a restaurant in Klánovice (TBA)

If you are interested in joining us on the trip, please confirm your participation by April 24 by sending the number of attendees to Erika Maringova: maringova@karlin.mff.cuni.cz

Přeposíláme email z České matematické společnosti. Studenti modelování by měli věnovat pozornost především druhému bodu — vyhlášení dalšího ročníku Soutěže studentů vysokých škol ve vědecké činnosti v matematice a informatice (SVOČ).

Vážení členové ČMS,
věnujte prosím pozornost následujícím dvěma aktualitám.

1. Byla vyhlášena soutěž na podporu akcí pro studenty a mladé kolegy pro rok 2019. Více informací najdete na http://jcmf.cz/?q=cz/node/1120. Termín pro podávání návrhů je do 31. 5. 2019.

2. Byl vyhlášen další ročník Soutěže studentů vysokých škol ve vědecké činnosti v matematice a informatice (SVOČ). Závěrečné kolo bude uspořádáno v Brně v areálu Ústavu matematiky a statistiky Přírodovědecké fakulty a Fakulty informatiky Masarykovy univerzity ve dnech 2. – 4. června 2019. Více informací o účasti v soutěži včetně aktuálních propozic najdete na http://jcmf.cz/?q=cz/node/775.

Se srdečným pozdravem
Tomáš Vejchodský

We are forwarding an email concerning PhD positions at FU Berlin.
