• Dr. Achim Kempf Department of Applied Mathematics 200 University Avenue West Waterloo, N2L 2J9 CANADA Email: akempf mit domain uwaterloo dot ca Homepage: http://www.math.uwaterloo.ca/~akempf/ Comments: Waterloo is 100km West of Toronto, at the same latitude as Florence, Italy. The Faculty of Mathematics at Waterloo is one of the largest world-wide and attracts some of the best students in North America. Since recently, Waterloo is fast becoming one of the major international centres for Mathematical Physics, helped by the founding in 2001 of the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics (www.perimeterinstitute.ca) with a private endowment of more than 120 Mio$. I occasionally accept new graduate students and I offer funding to those who are accepted. There are also opportunities for 4-month summer research studentships.
