The Math Institute of Technische Universitaet Berlin invites applicationsfor two postdoctorate positions, in Algebra and in Analysis.

The successful applicants should have a PhD in pure or applied mathematics.

• The position with emphasis in algebra requires a strong background in commutative algebra, combinatorics, linear and multilinear algebra.
• The position with emphasis in analysis requires a strong background in real and complex analysis, functional analysis, approximation theory and numerical analysis.

The successful applicants for either position shouldhave excellent research records, interest in interdisciplinary work, andability to communicate with researchers in other fields. Programming skills(MATLAB, symbolic algebra software, C, C++, Fortran, Java, etc.) are a plus.

The postdoctorate researchers will be working on the project "Direct andinverse problems of numerical algebra and analysis" led by Prof. Olga Holtzand sponsored by the Sofja Kovalevskaja Prize of the Alexander von HumboldtFoundation and the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research.

These vacancies are open starting November 1, 2006 until filled. To apply,send a CV, a publication list, and 3 reference letters to Olga Holtz.
