WIAS invites applications for a
PhD student position (f/m/d)
(Ref. 22/25)
in the Research Group
“Interacting Random Systems”
(Head: Prof. Dr. W. König) starting not earlier than 1. August 2022.
The task is to analyze large interacting random systems, for example the “Exclusion Process”, which model diffusion and evaporation processes in aerosols. The project will be carried out in cooperation with physicists at the FU-Berlin as part of the DFG Collaborative Research Centre CRC1114 “Scaling Cascades in Complex Systems” (http://www.mi.fu-berlin.de/en/sfb1114/)
An academic university degree (master’s or diploma) in mathematics or a closely related field is expected. Interest in the application of mathematics to physical problems and associated communication skills will be important. Experience in one or more of the areas of Markov processes, variational calculus and large deviations would strengthen your application.
Please direct scientific queries to Dr. Robert Patterson (Robert.Patterson@wias-berlin.de) or Dr. Marita Thomas (Marita.Thomas@wias-berlin.de).
The position is paid according to TVöD Bund and is initially limited to three years, with the possibility of an extension for a further year. The reduced working hours are 29.25 hours per week.
The Weierstrass Institute is an equal opportunity employer. We explicitly encourage female researchers to apply for the offered position. Among equally qualified applicants, disabled candidates will be given preference.
Please upload complete application documents including a cover letter, curriculum vitae and photocopies of relevant certificates as soon as possible and no later than 08.07.2022 via our online job-application facility using the button “Apply online”.
