Subject: Looking for ill conditioned sparse matrices
We are interested in very ill conditioned sparse
matrices A (condition number of A is k(A) = O(1/eps), where eps
is double precision machine precision) for which it is necessary
to solve the corresponding linear system
Ax = b
with some reasonable accuracy.
The matrices can be either symmetric or unsymmetric.
If you have any such problems, we would be really grateful if you
could supply us with the data in a standard sparse matrix format
(Rutherford Boeing or coordinate format or as a Matlab file).
A brief description of the field where the matrix comes from
would be useful and, if possible, please provide an example of a
right-hand side b.

Subject: Workshop on Numerics in Dynamical Systems, Helsinki, Apr 2009
Call for participation
Workshop on Numerics in Dynamical Systems
TKK Helsinki, April 23-25, 2009
The workshop will be part of the Numerical Analysis visitor program of
Finnish Mathematical Society for 2008-2009. It will concentrate on
dynamical systems and their numerical treatment using the interactive
play of analysis and numerics. Much attention will be paid on
qualitative analysis of dynamical systems using numerical methods. The
objects will include invariant sets, SRB-measures, bifurcation
phenomena, and Lyapunov exponents. The main topics of the workshop will
include preservation of important qualitative properties of systems in
their numerical time propagation. And even more generally: how to employ
efficiently in the numerical computations the available a priori
information of the system and a posteriori use: the aim of the
computation. For efficiency, the methods based on exponential
integrators and other types of lower dimensional local approximations
will get special interest.
Webpage: http://math.tkk.fi/numericsyear/numdyn/
There will be invited talks, shorter (20 min) talks, and a poster session.
For participating the workshop, please send email by Dec 31 2008 to:
numdyn09@math.tkk.fi
If you like to give a talk or present a poster, please include an
abstract. Answers will be sent soon after receiving the mail, latest Jan
15, 2009. We encourage especially young researchers to come.
Before and after the workshop there will be minicourses given by some
invited speakers.

Subject: New journal: MathematicS In Action
The SMAI (french society for applied and industrial mathematics, see
http://smai.emath.fr/?lang=en ) has recently launched a new journal:
MathematicS In Action (MSIA).
The objective of MSIA, published with the help of the CEDRAM (center for
diffusion of academic mathematical journals), is to promote the interactions
between Mathematics and other sciences by publishing papers at
their interfaces written by at least two authors: a mathematician
and a specialist in another scientific community (biology, medicine,
economy, computer science, physics, chemistry, mechanics, environnemental
sciences, engineering sciences, etc.).
The papers deal with modelling, analysis and validation of models, numerical
methods and/or experimental methods. They must comprise a mathematical part
and either numerical or experimental results. They also must be useful and
globally accessible to their authors' scientific communities.
The refereeing process for a submitted paper involves a mathematician and a
specialist in the other concerned domain. To be accepted, a paper must be of
the highest scientific quality, original, and strongly interdisciplinary.
The Journal is an electronic publication and all articles are freely
available. However, each year a printed version is sent to a selection of
libraries.
