__________________________________________________________________
The Stephen Smale Prize
The goal of the Smale Prize is to recognize major achievements in
furthering the understanding of the connections between mathematics
and computation, including the interfaces between pure and applied
mathematics, numerical analysis and computer science.
It will be awarded at the meeting of the Society for the Foundations
of Computational Mathematics (FoCM). Since these meetings are held
approximately every three years, this approximate length will
therefore apply for the separation between consecutive awards of the
prize.
Occasionally, there may be two recipients of the prize but not more
than two.
To be eligible for the prize, a candidate must be in their early to
mid career, typically within 10 years of receiving their first
doctoral degree. Allowances may be made for career interruptions, such
as those related to childbearing, child- rearing, or elder care. The
judgment of the committee as to eligibility will be final.
Eligible candidates should be nominated (self-nominations excluded) by
sending an email to the secretary of FoCM. The period for nominations
closes nine months before the 1st day of the meeting. That is, if the
meeting begins say, a 11th of December, the nomination period closes
at midnight of March 10 (GMT) of the same year. Each nomination should
be accompanied by a brief case for support.
There is no compulsory format for the nomination but it should include
at least three letters of recommendation.
The recipient of the prize will be selected, among the nominated
candidates, by a committee created for this task. This committee will
be proposed to the Board of Directors, after the closing of the
nomination period, by the chair of the society, who will also serve as
chair of the committee itself. It should consist of between 5 and 8
persons representing, as well as possible, the variety of subjects
covered in the area of Foundations of Computational Mathematics. At
least a third of the committee members should not have served as such
in previous awards of the prize and no person can serve as a member
more than thrice.
The committee will be the sole authority on the compliance of
candidates with the conditions of the prize.
The recipient of the prize will be expected to give a lecture at the
meeting. A written version of this lecture (tagged as the Smale Prize
Lecture) will be included in the volume of plenary talks.

Subject: New Book, Anderson Acceleration for Numerical PDEs
Anderson Acceleration for Numerical PDEs by Sara Pollock and Leo Rebholz
Research on Anderson acceleration (AA) has surged over the last 15
years. This book compiles recent fundamental advancements in AA and
its application to nonlinear solvers for partial differential
equations (PDEs). These solvers play an important role across
mathematics, science, engineering, and economics, serving as a
critical technology for determining solutions to predictive models for
a wide range of important phenomena.
This book covers AA convergence theory for both contractive and
noncontractive operators, as well as filtering techniques for AA. It
includes examples of how convergence theory can be adapted to various
application problems. It also includes AA’s impact on sublinear
convergence and integration of AA with Newton’s method.
The authors provide detailed proofs of key theorems and results from
numerous test examples. Code for the examples is available in an
online repository.

Subject: New book: High-Accuracy Finite Difference Methods
The book High-Accuracy Finite Difference Methods by Bengt Fornberg was
recently published by Cambridge University Press. It provides a broad
perspective of finite difference methods – a still rapidly evolving
technique for scientific computations, with several key developments
barely yet in the literature. Included topics extend from generating
FD formulas and applying these to solving ordinary and partial
differential equations (on grids or with irregular node layouts), to
numerical integration, evaluation of infinite sums, approximations of
fractional derivatives and computations in the complex plane. The
descriptions are focused on conceptual insights and practical aspects,
and are extensively supported by illustrations, appendices, and
references. It is aimed at graduate students, researchers, and
educators.

Subject: New metrics for Dolomites Research Notes on Approximation
The Dolomites Research Notes on Approximation (DRNA) is an open access
journal that publishes peer reviewed papers submitted through the
journal website. At times we will also publish surveys and other
important contributions upon invitation. The journal is dedicated to
Approximation Theory, including both its theory and applications, as
well as its computational and numerical aspects. Papers considered
for publication must have a strong Approximation Theory component.
Preferred topics are, for example, Polynomial
Interpolation/Approximation, Radial Basis Functions, Wavelets,
Splines, Discretization and Discrete approximation, …. Multivariate
topics are especially welcomed. Topics outside these core areas must
be justified by the author in their submission letter.
DRNA is indexed by MathScinet, Zentralblatt MATH, Scopus, ISI Web of
Science, The Electronic Library of Mathematics - Emis, DOAJ Directory
of Open Access Journals. From Volume 2 (2009) on, the editorial board
has decided to publish papers suggesting open problems of interest to
the scientific community. As for regular papers, these open problems
will be peer-reviewed before publication. The journal is officially
registered under ISSN 2035-6803. DRNA does not apply any APC or
Submission Charge. The journal is supported by the Department of
Mathematics of the University of Padova and published by Padova
University Press.
New metrics and IF (2024)
Scopus: CiteScore (2024) 1.9, SJR (2024) 0.502,
