Postdoc opportunity in dynamical systems at UNSW Sydney

 [expired]

This is to advertise a postdoc (initially 2 years, extendable to 3+ years) in dynamical systems as part of a small centre.

The Postdoctoral Fellow will undertake research within a five-year Laureate Fellow project funded by the Australian Research Council and UNSW Sydney. The project seeks to advance the analysis of dynamical systems through the development of novel techniques in functional analysis, operator theory, ergodic theory, differential geometry, and/or data science. Specific topics of focus include, but are not limited to, linear response, random and nonautonomous dynamical systems, spectral analysis, machine learning, data-driven dynamics, stability/perturbation theory/rigorous numerics. Possible applications of the new theory include the analysis of spatiotemporal data arising from weather and climate observations/models and from models of social dynamics. Motivating aims include the discovery and analysis of hidden large-scale patterns in data/models, elucidating mechanisms underlying the emergence of these large-scale phenomena and their response to perturbations, and devising reliable automatic schemes for predicting this emergence and quantifying their response.

Tenure-track Assistant Professorship in Mathematical Analysis and/or Probability at Rome Tor Vergata

 [expired]

The Department of Mathematics at the University of Rome Tor Vergata invites applications for a tenure-track position in Mathematical Analysis and/or Probability at the level of assistant professor (“Ricercatore tenure track”).

This tenure-track position offers a unique opportunity to join one of Italy’s leading Mathematics Departments, with a globally recognized reputation for research. The Department is consistently ranked among the top in Italy (ANVUR report) and is within the top 150 Departments of Mathematics worldwide in the ARWU ranking.

Assistant Professor in Mathematics at KTH Stockholm

 [expired]

The Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) invites applications for the position of Assistant Professor in Mathematics with specialization in Mathematical Analysis, meant in a broad sense, including not only central areas of analysis, but also areas of mathematics where analysis is a dominating characteristic. Examples of the latter include subareas of dynamical systems, geometry, mathematical physics, partial differential equations, probability theory and number theory.

As for the duties of the position, the majority of time will be spent on research, with the goal that the assistant professor become established as an independent researcher within the international research community. Teaching at the basic, advanced and doctoral level includes courses in mathematics as well as supervision of degree projects and doctoral students. Some administrative duties may also be included. The assistant professor is expected to be able to teach in Swedish within four years. If needed, a language support plan will be devised at the time of employment.

Postdoc position at King’s College London

 [expired]

The Mathematics Department at King’s College London is currently recruiting a postdoctoral researcher to work with Dr. Matteo Tanzi on the EPSRC-funded project: “Strongly Coupled Maps: Thermodynamic Limits and Rates of Convergence.”

This position presents an exciting opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research at the intersection of dynamical and complex systems, particularly focusing on the dynamics of strongly interacting systems. The role is ideally suited for candidates with expertise in one or more of the following areas: dynamical systems, ergodic theory, or the theory of networks.

Research Associate in Mathematical Physics at Imperial College London

 [expired]

The Department of Mathematics at Imperial College London (UK) is inviting applications for a Research Associate position funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) grant “Predicting Critical Transitions in Complex Dynamical Networks: Reduction and Learning.”

The successful candidate will work closely with Professors Jeroen S.W. Lamb, Sebastian van Strien and Dmitry Turaev from the Dynamical Systems group in the Department of Mathematics of Imperial College, on aspects of the grant. The research concerns a collaboration with King’s College London (Dr Matteo Tanzi) and the University of Sao Paulo (Professors Tiago Pereira and Edson de Faria, and Dr Thomas Peron).

Postdoctoral Research Associate in Mathematical Physics at Loughborough University

 [expired]

The Geometry and Mathematical Physics group of the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Loughborough University (UK) is inviting applications for a Postdoctoral Research Associate position. This role is part of an EPSRC-funded project by Dr. Mats Vermeeren focusing on Lagrangian multiform theory, with the objective of applying concepts from this theory, initially developed in the context of classical integrable systems, to other areas of modern mathematical physics.
