Would you like to explore the frontier of mathematical physics where gravity meets geometry and analysis? Then you have a part to play as an assistant/associate professor in mathematical relativity. We offer you the opportunity to explore an exciting area of research at the interface between mathematics and physics, working in a unique interdisciplinary research institute for mathematics and (astro)physics where gravity is a central theme. You will make your mark not only in scientific research, but also in the teaching of mathematics and mathematical physics in general.
We are looking for a mathematician working in the area of mathematical general relativity. This position will expand our young initiative in mathematical relativity, which is part of the Mathematical Physics research group. This group has traditionally specialised in quantum (field) theory, non-commutative geometry and operator algebras, and foundations of quantum physics and general relativity, which is led by Klaas Landsman and Walter van Suijlekom as full professors and also includes Annegret Burtscher, Peter Hochs, and Michael Müger. Within the Mathematics Department, this group is also closely connected to research in both applied mathematics, especially on partial differential equations (PDEs), and pure mathematics with a focus on analysis and geometry. You will also strengthen the increasing concentration of our umbrella institute (IMAPP) on gravity as a key research theme, particularly on black holes (including the Event Horizon Telescope), gravitational waves (with links to both current and future detection technology such as the Einstein Telescope), and quantum gravity. Women and members of other groups underrepresented in science are especially encouraged to apply.
Profile
We are
The Mathematics Department at Radboud University is part of the Institute for Mathematics, Astrophysics, and Particle Physics (IMAPP) in the Faculty of Science. The department represents a broad range of areas, including pure and applied analysis, algebraic geometry and topology, number theory, functional analysis, mathematical physics, non-commutative geometry, special functions, and stochastics. Locally, the department has strong ties with theoretical physics, astrophysics, theoretical computer science, and history and philosophy of physics. Nationally the department is active in all four NWO mathematical research clusters (DIAMANT, GQT, NDNS+, and STAR). The Mathematical Physics group is also represented in Route 2 of the National Science Agenda (NWA), which has a strong focus on gravity and includes mathematical aspects. IMAPP aims at increasing its diversity – including its gender balance – in various ways.
Radboud University
We want to get the best out of science, others and ourselves. Why? Because this is what the world around us desperately needs. Leading research and education make an indispensable contribution to a healthy, free world with equal opportunities for all. This is what unites the more than 24,000 students and 5,600 employees at Radboud University. And this requires even more talent, collaboration and lifelong learning. You have a part to play!
We offer
Additional employment conditions
Work and science require good employment practices. This is reflected in Radboud University’s primary and secondary employment conditions . You can make arrangements for the best possible work-life balance with flexible working hours, various leave arrangements and working from home. You are also able to compose part of your employment conditions yourself, for example, exchange income for extra leave days and receive a reimbursement for your sports subscription. And of course, we offer a good pension plan. You are given plenty of room and responsibility to develop your talents and realise your ambitions. Therefore, we provide various training and development schemes.
