Postdoctoral Researcher (f/m/d) within Project A5 or A6 at Collaborative Research Center 1173 at KIT

The CRC 1173 »Wave phenomena – analysis and numerics« is inviting applications, as soon as possible, for the position of a
Postdoctoral Researcher (f/m/d)
within Project A5 or A6 at CRC 1173 at KIT
In project A5 “Qualitative behavior of nonlinear Maxwell equations”, we are developing a wellposedness theory for Maxwell equations with various nonlinear material laws and study the long-time behavior of solutions. Within project A6 “Localized solutions for nonlinear Maxwell and wave-type equations”, we investigate similar material laws and prove the existence and properties of special waveforms like time-periodic localized waves or rogue waves. Both projects interact on the question of stability of these solutions.
We welcome your application if you are a postdoctoral researcher with a strong interest in nonlinear PDEs. For Project A5 your interest lies in wellposedness theory, dispersive estimates, and the long-time behavior of nonlinear wave-type equations. For Project A6 your expertise lies in the area of the calculus of variations, spectral theory, and/or bifurcation methods (Project A6). If your interest fits into both projects you are especially encouraged to apply.
