Biography

Dr. Josef Dick is a Professor and the Deputy Head of the School of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of New South Wales (UNSW). He obtained his PhD in Mathematics from UNSW in 2004 and has a Master's degree in Mathematics from the University of Salzburg, graduating in 2001. His research focuses on numerical integration, specifically quasi-Monte Carlo rules. His work incorporates a variety of techniques from number theory, abstract algebra, particularly within finite fields, and discrepancy theory. He also explores wavelet theory statistics and rigorous analysis for practical algorithms addressing computational problems. Professor Dick has developed implementation algorithms in Matlab to connect theoretical concepts with their real-world applications. His research includes applying ideas of point distributions within the unit cube and using numerical integration algorithms with uniformly distributed sequences in Markov chain quasi-Monte Carlo algorithms. Acknowledged for his contributions, he has held key roles in significant research grants, including projects funded by the Australian Research Council, and is committed to mentoring future students in these fields.
