Postdoc in Analysis and Computing of 2D Materials

A postdoctoral position under the direction of Professor Mitchell Luskin is available at the University of Minnesota to participate in the modeling, analysis, and computing of new materials based on twisted 2D heterostructures. This position is supported by the Simons Foundation and involves collaboration in the Moire Materials Magic project with mathematicians and physicists at Harvard, UC Berkeley, UC Irvine, Paris Tech, Flatiron, and U Texas.

We seek a candidate with a strong background in any of partial differential equations, mathematical physics, numerical analysis and computation, although all strong candidates with an interest in this project will be seriously considered. The candidate will teach one semester course per term. The preferred start date is during the summer of 2022 or earlier. The initial duration is two years, with possible extensions depending on availability of funds.

Applications will be reviewed starting December 1, 2021 and will continue until the position is filled. Applicants should submit an AMS cover sheet, complete curriculum vitae, a description of their research background and interest in this project, and at least three letters of recommendation to http://www.mathjobs.org under the banner Analysis and Computing of 2D Quantum Materials.

Any offer of employment will be contingent on a successful background check.

The University of Minnesota is an Equal Opportunity Educator and Employer.
