Subject: Prospective PhD student: boundary value problems Dear Professor Serkh, My name is [your name], and I am a [your current degree or role] at [your institution]. I am applying for a PhD position starting in [term and year]. I read your paper "On the efficient evaluation of the azimuthal Fourier components of the Green's function for Helmholtz's equation in cylindrical coordinates." (2022), and it connects closely to my own work on [your research topic]. [One or two sentences on what you did and what you learned.] I also saw your NSERC-funded project "The Solution of Partial Differential Equations on Realistic Geometries" (2020), and I would be glad to contribute to work in that direction. Are you accepting new PhD students for [term and year]? I have attached my CV and transcripts, and I would be glad to talk at a time that suits you. Thank you for your time. Kind regards, [your name]
