\begin{center}{\Large \bf Simon Fraser Centre for Experimental and
Constructive Mathematics} \end{center}
This Centre is intended to further research and graduate education in
Computation in the Mathematical Sciences.
The Centre aims to provide a sophisticated environment for Mathematical
research on topics that require a substantial mix of computation,
experimentation and mathematics. Of interest are questions
on how one uses the computer: To build intuition? To generate hypotheses?
To validate conjectures or prove theorems? To discover nontrivial examples
and counter-examples?
The Centre will commence full operation July 1, 1993 at Simon Fraser
University in Burnaby, British Columbia. Activities will
include the following.
(i) Provision for and sponsorship of Post-Doctoral Fellowships in areas
related to Experimental and Constructive Mathematics.
(ii) Sponsorship of regular short-term and longer-term research visitors
to the Centre.
(iii) Organization of regular Colloquia and occasional Conferences on
advances in Experimental and Constructive Mathematics.
(iv) Participation in the training of graduate students in Experimental and
Constructive Mathematics.
(v) Establishment, development and maintenance of accessible software
archives.
(vi) Collaboration with similar centres and appropriate individuals at
other Canadian and foreign Universities and Institutes.
The initial steering committee consists of J. Borwein (Director), P.
Borwein and R. Russell. Enquiries can be directed to jborwein@math.sfu.ca.
The Centre is soliciting applications for {\bf two Post-Doctoral Fellows}
commencing after July 1, 1993, in any areas compatible with the interests
of the centre. The stipend will be set on the NSERC PDF scale. These are
primarily research positions though some teaching may be involved.
The Centre is soliciting applications for the position of
{\bf Computer System Administrator} commencing April 1, 1993. Salary
range is \$42,846-\$54,955. This person will be responsible for the
installation and operation of the CECM computing facility and will be
expected to provide technical leadership for this and related projects. A
post graduate degree in Computing Science or Electrical/Electronic Engineering
and five years experience (or an equivalent combination of experience and
training) are required.
Applicants should send a curriculum vitae and arrange
for three letters of reference to be sent directly to Dr. J.M. Borwein,
Department of Combinatorics and Optimization,University of Waterloo, N2L
3G1, Ontario, preferably by Januuary 1, 1993.
