Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position in Ergodic Theory and Dynamical Systems within the project Non Uniform Hyperbolicity in Global Dynamics of Sylvain Crovisier funded by the ERC.

Beginning: September 2018

Length: 24 months

Location: Laboratoire de Mathématiques d’Orsay, Université Paris-Sud, France

Research: This postdoctoral position is funded by the ERC project Non Uniform Hyperbolicity in Global Dynamics. This project studies the qualitative, symbolic and probabilistic aspects of the dynamics of differentiable dynamical systems (diffeomorphisms or flows). It focuses in particular on: - partial hyperbolicity and various notions of non-uniform hyperbolicity, - symbolic dynamics and ergodic theory of differentiable systems, - perturbative techniques and genericity. The research project of the candidate should be related to one of the main tasks of this project.

A 1-year postdoc position is available in Rome Tor Vergata within the SIR project “New methods in holomorphic iteration”. There is no teaching load. The research theme is several complex variables and holomorphic dynamics. Deadline for application is November 1st.

The chosen candidates will work in Rome, starting January/February 2018. Information and instructions to apply can be found at

Postdoctoral position in Dynamical Systems at the University of Exeter

This post is available from 01 November 2017 for 36 months to support the work of Mark Holland.

The University of Exeter is a Russell Group university that combines world-class research with very high levels of student satisfaction. Exeter has over 21,000 students from more than 130 different countries and is in the top 1% of universities in the world with 98% of its research rated as being of international quality. Our research focuses on some of the most fundamental issues facing humankind today.

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, possibly extended to 15 months. The expected starting date is October 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.

This year there have been some upgrades to the Italian laws ruling the recruitment in the universities. One of these upgrades concerns the documents required to apply for calls for the positions of “junior or senior RTD” (temporary assistant professor).

The main change is about the document proving the Ph.D. qualification. In particular, some universities (please don’t ask why not all of them) are now asking that participants to a call declare that they have obtained the nostrification of the Ph.D. qualification, or that they have at least sent the request for the nostrification to the Italian Ministry of Education, Universities and Research.

The Ph.D. school in Information Engineering of the University of Florence has recently funded a scholarship in “Topological characterization of network dynamics”. The scholarship falls within the university program in multidisciplinary education, and therefore it is open to graduate students coming from various fields, such as Engineering, Physics and Mathematics. The scholarship lasts 3 years, and it is completely funded during this time. The winner has to attend the Ph.D. school during these years and will have to write a dissertation to earn the PhD degree.
