The department of mathematics at the University of Sussex offers a fixed term postdoctoral position in the areas of probability and mathematical physics. Initially, the position is for 18 months but may be extended subject to additional funding. We welcome candidates from all areas of probability and mathematical physics, but candidates with an interest in random matrix theory, interacting particle systems and exactly solvable models are particularly encouraged to apply. The starting date of the position is flexible and interested candidates are encouraged to contact me (n.j.simm@sussex.ac.uk) for informal queries.
The post-holder will work closely with the principal investigator Dr. Nick Simm in the Probability and Statistics research group at Sussex and will benefit from recent growth in random matrix theory and probability in the last few years in our group. The post comes with a generous travel bursary that will enable the successful candidate to participate in international conferences and summer schools.
Prospective candidates should hold a PhD in mathematics or theoretical physics, or be in the final stages of writing up their PhD thesis and have submitted by the time they begin the position. Examples of topics that are pertinent to this job include:
