A vacancy for a post-doctorate research scholarship in the framework of “Programa Nacional de Pós Doutorado PNPD-CAPES” (National post-doctoral programme PNPD-CAPES) associated to the PhD Program in Mathematics UFBA/UFAL is available from May 1st, 2017.

The applicant is expected to be a Doctorate with high research potential in Mathematics, without a job contract, and with potential for interaction with the research groups of the PhD Program. The value of the scholarship is R$4100,00 (four thousand and one houndred brazillian real) per month.

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position (BPD) in Ergodic Theory and Dynamical Systems within the project PTDC/MAT-CAL/3884/2014 funded by the FCT (Portuguese Science and Technology Foundation).

Applicants must hold a PhD in Mathematics or in a related field, preferably obtained less than 6 years ago and have research experience in at least one of the main research areas of the project.

The initial contract will be for 12 months, renewable for another 12 months on mutual agreement. The expected starting date is May 1, 2017 though some flexibility may be possible. The monthly salary is 1495 euros (tax free). There are no compulsory teaching duties associated with this position.

The 2017 CRITICS Spring Doctoral School  will be held at University of Salento in Lecce from April 18th to 22nd:

and everybody interested, in particular graduate students, is very welcome to participate.

Italy is the place to be for young and old dynamicists this coming June 2017. Three amazing events one after the other in Rome, Pisa and Trieste.

5-9 June, Fifth Workshop of the DinAmicI, Rome https://dinamici5.dm.unibo.it/

12-16 June, School on Hyperbolic Dynamics, Pisa  https://crm.sns.it/event/410/

19-23 June, Workshop on Hyperbolic Dynamics, Trieste https://indico.ictp.it/event/7970/

****************************************************

The Fifth Workshop of the DinAmicI (https://www.dinamici.org) will take place in Rome from the 5th to the 9th of June 2017 and will be sponsored and hosted by INdAM (the Italian National Institute for Advanced Mathematics).

The Department of Mathematics at University of Houston will host the fifth annual Houston Summer School on Dynamical Systems from May 17-25, 2017.

As in past years, the school is designed for graduate students; however, this year there will also be an opportunity for undergraduate students to participate, arriving two days early and then staying for the main event.

The following short courses are planned:

• Statistical properties in hyperbolic dynamics (Vaughn Climenhaga, Will Ott, Andrew Török - University of Houston)
• Partially hyperbolic dynamics (Todd Fisher - Brigham Young University)
• Dynamical methods in Diophantine approximation (Alan Haynes - University of Houston)
• Dynamics of group actions on homogeneous spaces (Anish Ghosh - Tata Institute of Fundamental Research)
• Linearly recurrent systems (Valérie Berthé - Univ. Paris Diderot)

The Instituto de Ciencias Matemáticas (ICMAT-Institute of Mathematical Sciences) offers postdoctoral appointments for researchers in Mathematics with an excellent curriculum who wish to pursue their research career at the ICMAT.

Deadline March 1, 2017
