Job description
The research consortium “Rational points: new dimensions”, funded by an NWO Open Competition ENW - XL grant, offers up to six PhD positions in arithmetic geometry spread across three universities: University of Groningen, Leiden University, and Utrecht University.
As a PhD student you will carry out mathematical research in the context of the research program “Rational points: new dimensions”.
You will be part of a collaborative research team led by Martin Bright, Valentijn Karemaker, Ronald van Luijk, Steffen Müller, Marta Pieropan and Cecília Salgado.
In addition, you are expected to carry out some work as a teaching assistant within the department of your home university.
Qualifications You are expected to have an MSc degree (or equivalent) in mathematics, or to obtain such a degree before the starting date of the PhD project. A working proficiency in English will be necessary, as well as a collaborative and enterprising attitude towards research in mathematics. Knowledge of the Dutch language is not required.
Offer We offer:
In addition
to the employment conditions laid down in the CAO for Dutch Universities, the
proposed home institutions have a number of own arrangements ranging from
professional development and leave arrangements to sports. More
information about working at the University of Groningen can be found here. About
the organisation The mathematical community in the Netherlands is tight-knit. The consortium members interact regularly with experts at universities other than those involved in the consortium, such as the University of Amsterdam, the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, and Radboud University in Nijmegen. These interactions are also facilitated by the monthly Intercity Number Theory Seminar, the Intercity Geometry Seminar, the twice-annual DIAMANT Symposium, and the twice-annual GQT School and Colloquium. We also keep in touch with our colleagues in Belgium through the “Getaltheorie in het Vlakke Land” seminar and the Belgian-Dutch Algebraic Geometry Seminar. Diversity
