The start date is flexible, with the latest start date being 1 October 2022. We are looking for researchers with expertise in algebraic geometry, algebraic topology, or number theory, with specific topics in the research programme including: * Arithmetic statistics * Applications of topological techniques to problems in arithmetic geometry * Homological stability * Existence and distribution of rational points on varieties (the Hasse principle and Manin's conjecture) * Arithmetic of abelian varieties and moduli stacks The positions come with substantial travel funds and no teaching obligations. They also include relocation expenses and equipment expenses (e.g. Laptop). You will be a highly motivated individual who will contribute well to the research project itself and to the department as a whole, and be expected to disseminate the results in leading academic journals and conferences.
