Position Description

A postdoc position is available to work on an NSF grant project with Hrushikesh Mhaskar (CGU, https://www.cgu.edu/people/hrushikesh-mhaskar/). The areas of research are (1) approximation theory/computational harmonic analysis (2) machine learning, and (3) signal processing. The post-doc will collaborate closely with Mhaskar in (1) developing applications for his theory and writing the necessary codes to carry out the applications successfully enough to result in publications in respectable journals/proceedings (2) doing literature search and grant proposal development, (3) mathematical discussions and presentations. The ideal candidate should have good programming skills, and a background in basic real and complex analysis, approximation theory, harmonic analysis, and numerical analysis. The deadline for applications with cover letter, vita, statement of research interests, and three letters of recommendation is December 15, 2021, but applications will be considered after that until the position is filled. The position is from July 1, 2022, to June 30, 2023, but the dates are somewhat flexible.

Claremont Graduate University is a member of the Claremont Colleges, a consortium of two graduate and five undergraduate institutions that collectively house over 50 mathematics faculty members.
