Job opening

for a PhD student (duration 3 years)

and/or

post-doc position (duration 2 years)

in Analysis, Probability or Mathematical Physics at the Department of Mathematics at the TU Dortmund starting in 2024

In both cases an extension is possible under favourable circumstances.

After an adaptation period teaching needs to be carried out in German.

An applicant with completed PhD needs to have experience in research in analysis or probability theory. A student applicant needs to have taken courses in partial differential equations and probability theory. Knowledge of physics is of advantage. Of particular interest is expertise in any of the following fields

elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations on bounded and unbounded domains
control theory
large deviations, concentration inequalities, entropy methods

Interested candidates with this profile should write an Email with
subject line: application 2024
to: application.lsix@math.tu-dortmund.de
and provide the following items:

cover letter
CV (including academic education, positions, teaching experience, language skills, participation in workshops, international experience)
university degree(s) and transcript of records
all publications (if any)
two or more references (mentors) with name, affiliation and email address

Candidates with completed PhD should include additionally:

PhD degree
a summary of past research (circa 2 pages)
optional: future research plans (circa 1 page)

The chair of analysis, dynamical sytems & mathematical physics and the mathematics department in Dortmund provide a stimulating research environment. The department has several groups working in partial differential equations, variational analysis, (optimal) control theory, stochastic processes, random matrices, numerical analysis, finite element methods, differential geometry, and several other fields. Together with the universities in Bochum, Duisburg and Essen, the TU Dortmund comprises the University Aliance Ruhr.
