The Ph.D. school in Information Engineering of the University of Florence has recently funded a scholarship in “Topological characterization of network dynamics”. The scholarship falls within the university program in multidisciplinary education, and therefore it is open to graduate students coming from various fields, such as Engineering, Physics and Mathematics. The scholarship lasts 3 years, and it is completely funded during this time. The winner has to attend the Ph.D. school during these years and will have to write a dissertation to earn the PhD degree.

Conference on Hamiltonian Systems, in tribute to the memory of John Mather (1942-2017).

The meeting will take place from 30th october to 3rd november 2017 in Ascona (Switzerland) and it will be generously supported by ETH-ITS Zurich and by “Centro Congressi Stefano Franscini” in Ascona.

The list of invited speakers and other relevant information can be retrieved from the following website: https://www.eth-its.ethz.ch/hamiltonian-systems-csf.html

We will be able to cover lodging/boarding expenses (from sunday evening to friday afternoon) to a number of participants, in the limit of the  maximal occupancy of the conference centre.

The Italian National Institute for Advanced Mathematics (INdAM) calls for 6 Research Projects to be submitted by “Young Researchers”.

The goal of the initiative is to foster the rise of new leaders in mathematical research, who will be able to compete for ERC Starting Grants and similar Research Funding Schemes.

The selected projects will have the duration of 1 year with no possibility of renewal and will be given funds for a postdoctoral position, which might be filled by the applicant him/herself. Each proposal must indicate an institution of reference, among those recognized by INdAM.

A website for our upcoming INdAM Workshop

DinAmicI V Modern Trends in the Ergodic Theory of Dynamical Systems

We encourage you to visit the site, download the workshop’s wonderful poster and post it somewhere in your institution. (Warning: the poster might be updated before the start of the workshop.)

The Gran Sasso Science Institute (GSSI) has opened a new call for PhD applications (deadline 31 May 2017).

40 positions (all with fellowship) are available starting from 1 November 2017 in:

• Astroparticle Physics
• Mathematics in Natural, Social and Life Sciences
• Computer Science
• Urban Studies and Regional Science

GSSI is an international PhD school and a center for advanced studies established in L’Aquila (Italy). Its purpose is to form high level human capital, integrating education and research in a lively interdisciplinary environment.
