We are constantly looking for highly motivated students with strong mathematical background and / or programming skills to join the research group of Prof. Bangti Jin, at Department of Mathematics, The Chinese University of Hong Kong. The group currently has the following open positions: research assistant professor, PhD position, research assistant / MPhi students. Interested candidates are cordially invited to apply for the positions directly via emailing the relevant materials (cv, transcripts, expression of interest) to Prof. Bangti Jin (b.jin@cuhk.edu.hk).

 

One position of research assistant professor at Department of Mathematics, The Chinese University of Hong Kong. The details can be found at https://www.math.cuhk.edu.hk/about-us/job-opportunities. Please apply through mathjob.org: https://www.mathjobs.org/jobs/list/22310

 

 

One PhD position on deep solvers for PDEs (jointly with Prof. Simon Arridge, Department of Computer Science University College London).

 

The studentship is funded by the international joint supervision of PhD students scheme of CUHK. The project is to investigate deep neural networks for solving inverse problems associated with partial differential equations, with a focus on developing efficient numerical algorithms and / or establishing theoretical guarantees. The specific inverse problems of interest include electrical impedance tomography, current density impedance imaging and conductivity imaging from partial interior data. The topics deal with the development and application of neural networks and their integration to inverse problems, and the main tasks of the student include (but not limited to): 1) conduct numerical experiments on model inverse problems; 2) conduct preliminary theoretical analysis of the algorithm, e.g., generalization error analysis; 3) perform comparative study with traditional methods. The deadline for the application is September 20, 2023, and the application and questions on the position should be sent directly to Bangti Jin (b.jin@cuhk.edu.hk).

 

Two research assistant / MPhil student positions in computational inverse problems / numerical analysis broadly speaking. Potential topics of interest include but not limited to:

(1)   theoretical and applied aspects of adaptive FEM for PDE constrained optimization

(2)   neural networks for solving PDEs

(3)   stochastic iterative methods

(4)   generative models for inverse problems etc.
