[DMANET] 2 Postdoctoral Fellow Positions at UiT - The Arctic University of Norway in Tromsø

At the Aurora Center for Mathematical Structures in Computations (MASCOT) <https://uit.no/research/mascot> at UiT — The Arctic University of Norway 2 positions as postdoctoral fellows are available from January 1st.
Both positions are fixed term position for a duration of two years, with a possibility of extending by one more year subject to complementary teaching responsibilities. Both positions will be attached to the
MASCOT Center which aims to unify and advance research frontiers in the interplay of pure mathematics and computations by exploring fundamental mathematical structures and their increasing
significance for modern algorithms and novel program architectures.

The first of the positions will be attached to the work package on optimization of computations via algebraic and combinatorial approaches to complexity. A successful candidate for this position ideally has a background in
algorithmic algebraic geometry, applied algebra, representation theory or computational invariant theory. However, also experience in neighboring areas such as, for example,
combinatorial optimization, algebraic topology, algebraic statistics, complexity theory will be considered valuable for this position.

The other one on applications of Lie-theoretic methods to Cartan geometries, symbolic tools to facilitate algebraic computations and the formal theory of differential equations. Here, a successful
should have a background in differential geometry, Lie theory and be capable of doing concrete and symbolic computations related to those. Experience in closely related areas such as commutative algebra,
representation theory and mathematical physics will be also valuable for this position.

Interested researchers are invited to apply until September 4th via the JobbNorge plattform:
