PhD Candidate: Analysis and Geometry on Manifolds

3 maanden geleden


Nijmegen, Gelderland, Nederland Radboud Universiteit Voltijd

The Department of Mathematics is seeking a highly motivated PhD candidate for a research position funded by the NWO ENW-M project 'Higher Invariants of Finite-Volume Spaces'. This project is about developing and applying new invariants of certain non-compact manifolds which have finite volume. It falls in the broad area of analysis and geometry on manifolds. There are links with index theory, Lie group theory and operator algebras.

The PhD project will be supervised by Dr Peter Hochs. We will support you throughout the PhD process to engage in research, participate in local, national and international meetings, and report on your results in scientific publications. You should ideally be available to start the PhD project between 1 September and 1 November 2024. Other starting dates are negotiable, but the earlier the better. This position has a light teaching load, of up to 10% of your working time. Upon successful completion, you will be awarded a PhD from Radboud University.

We welcome applications from candidates with an excellent academic track record and demonstrable experience in at least one of the areas mentioned above. Members from groups that are underrepresented in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics disciplines are particularly encouraged to apply.

Profile
  • You hold a Master's degree in Mathematics, or you are on track to obtain one before the start of the project.
  • You have experience in one or more areas relevant to this position, as evidenced by courses followed and your Master's thesis.
  • You have excellent written and oral communication skills.
  • You are a highly motivated, enthusiastic, critical, organised, creative and proactive individual.
  • You work well in a team as well as independently.
