Open Positions

The INdAM Doctoral Programme fellowships in Mathematics and/or Applications Cofunded by Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions (INdAM-DP-COFUND-2015) offers PhD fellowships in the framework of the European Horizon 2020 programme “Marie Sklodowska-Curie Co-funding of Regional, National and International Programmes”. These fellowships offer to researchers from all over the world the opportunity to enter a PhD School in Italy.

On the date of the deadline for the submission of proposals, applicants must be in the first four years (full-time equivalent research experience) of their career and must not have been awarded a doctoral degree yet. They must also be in possession of a degree, which formally entitles them to embark in a Doctorate in Italy.

In case you are looking for a PhD position in Mathematics at the University of Pisa for you or your students, I’m forwarding useful information from the PhD School Coordinator.

Dear colleagues,

in our department we are looking for students from outside Italyt hat might be interested in doing their PhD in Pisa, starting nextacademic year (that is, October/November 2018). I ask your help to bring this message to the attention of students in your department that might be interested.

*Title: ***Rare Events in Dynamical Systems via Transfer Operator Techniques

Supervisor: Wael Bahsoun (W.Bahsoun@lboro.ac.uk; phone +44-15-09-222883).

Nature of work: Theory

Area: Mathematics: Ergodic Theory and Dynamical Systems

Brief description: The study of rare events in dynamical systems is currently one of the most active branches of research in ergodic theory. In part, this is due to their interesting applications in earth and ocean sciences. An example of a rare event in dynamical systems appears in the study of ‘open’ systems where orbits infrequently escape from the domain, typically by falling into a small “hole” in the phase space. The goal of the project is to use spectral techniques (via the so called Perron-Frobenius operator) to approximate escape rates in open systems and to compute the Hausdorff dimension of survival sets.

Postdoctoral positions at the University of São Paulo, Brazil

The Low Dimensional Dynamics and Geometry Group of the Institute of Mathematics and Statistics of the University of São Paulo (IME-USP), invites applications for 8 postdoctoral positions.

The positions are for two years, renewable twice for up to four years. There are no teaching responsibilities. We are looking for candidates with strong research potential in areas of interest to the group: real and complex dynamics in low dimensions, topological dynamics on surfaces, low dimensional geometry and topology, hyperbolic geometry of 3-manifolds, Teichmüller theory, symplectic geometry and topology, ergodic theory are among the groups interests. Members and their interests are listed on the group’s page at https://www.ime.usp.br/~sylvain/Dynamics/dynamics.html.
