Department of Algebra, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University (Prague)

... invites applications for two postdoctoral positions in homological algebra with connections to representation theory of associative algebras, commutative algebra or algebraic geometry.

The positions will be funded by Jan Stovicek's project "Homological and structural theory in geometric contexts" awarded by the Czech Science Foundation. There are no teaching duties and knowledge of Czech language is not necessary.

Applicants should have working knowledge of homological algebra, and preferably with derived categories. Applicants with experience in the theory of ring spectra are also welcome to apply.

Due to restrictions of the grant agency, applicants must have received their Ph.D. within the last 8 years excluding maternity and parental leave, and sick leave in the case of a long-term illness.

The expected duration of the position is April 1, 2023 - December 31, 2025, but the starting and ending dates are negotiable.

The Faculty of Mathematics and Physics at Charles University is the leading institution in mathematics in Czechia, with highly motivated and well educated students in our mathematics programs. The School of Mathematics has about 110 academic positions, as well as more than 30 international postdocs, covering most of the major areas of mathematics. More information can be found at the faculty website and the website of the School of Mathematics.

The Department of Algebra, where the position will be hosted, offers an open minded international environment, with outstanding conditions for independent research. We currently have about 15 permanent and 15 postdoctoral positions, with most of the latter positions held by international researchers.

Electronic application accompanied by

  • curriculum vitae (including a list of publications)
  • research statement
should be sent to Jan Stovicek at stovicek@karlin.mff.cuni.cz ; informal inquiries concerning the position are welcome.

The candidate should arrange for two letters of recommendation to be sent directly to the same address.

Review of candidates will begin on January 31, 2023, although late applications may be considered.
