| The Gauge Theory and Algebraic Geometry (GTAG) research group invites applications for a post-doctoral position in gauge theory and special geometries at the University of Campinas (Unicamp), Brazil, under the supervision of Henrique Sá Earp. The position is for 2 years, renewable for up to two additional years.
We look for a candidate with a research profile along the following lines: gauge theory, particularly instantons and monopoles in Yang-Mills theory, metrics with special holonomy, moduli spaces, special geometric structures and related topics in geometric analysis and Riemannian geometry.
This is a research-only position, with no expected teaching or administrative duties, funded by the Sao Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP) under the Thematic Project “Gauge Theory and Algebraic Geometry”. Benefits include: monthly stipend of BRL 7,373 (tax free); an additional 15% of total yearly stipend for research-related expenses; start-up costs, including air travel and one extra pay; maternity and paternity leave; pending approval by FAPESP, paid leave of up to 1 year to visit any research institution in the world.
The starting date is flexible, between August and December 2021.
Applicants should send a CV and a research statement to Prof. Henrique Sá Earp (henrique.saearp@ime.unicamp.br), along with written materials like publications and preprints, and arrange for at least one reference letter to be sent to the same address, by 25 May 2021 at the latest. Applications will be processed under a framework of equal opportunities, we particularly encourage women to apply. |
