5- Permanent Position, Optimization, CERFACS, France

(source : P. Armand, M. Mongeau)

A position in numerical optimisation is open at CERFACS in the Parallel Algorithms Team.

The Parallel Algorithms project is looking for a bright, motivated person with a good research

record and the ability to join existing projects in numerical optimization with a strong initiative

in pursuing new research directions. A PhD in applied mathematics with a strong interest in

numerical optimisation and a solid experience in research. An experience with real-life problems

is appreciated. Application from young talented or well-established researchers are welcome.


The Parallel Algorithm project aims at designing optimisation codes and the related mathematical

theory to tackle frontier problems arising from industrial applications, including aeronautics and

geosciences. Candidates intending to work on derivative based or derivative free algorithms are

equally welcome. The present research activity will focus on both constrained and unconstrained

optimisation. The project will address in particular issues related to the global convergence and

control of the complexity of algorithms with respect to several aspects including noisy functions

and constraints, availability of derivatives, parallel algorithms.
The position is open as a postdoctoral position that will (very shortly, depending on experience)

be turned into a permanent position. Interested candidates should send applications containing

cover letter, CV (with a list of publications), the names and contacts of at least two referees before

end of January 2014 to both Serge Gratton (serge.gratton@enseeiht.fr) and Xavier Vasseur

(vasseur@cerfacs.fr).

16- Recherche de contacts mathématiques - sociologie des réseaux

(source : J. Renault)

J’ai rencontré récemment Emmanuel Lazega, professeur à Sciences Po, Paris, (elazega.fr) qui est

spécialiste de la sociologie des réseaux et qui travaille avec des outils tels que que la théorie

des jeux, théorie des réseaux et l’analyse des systèmes complexes.

Il est fortement intéressé par un échange avec des mathématiciens, une discussion, qui permettrait

d’exposer les problèmes et besoins de chacun et de défricher d’éventuels terrains d’entente entre

les deux disciplines.
