About this role
In order to fill a fixed-term position in full-time (39.83 hours/week = 100%) at the earliest possible date, we are looking for 1 Postdoc 2 years (m,f,x) The chair deals with research in the intersection between Hamiltonian dynamics, symplectic geometry, and metric geometry. It employs tools from nonlinear analysis, variational calculus, and Floer theoretical methods based on holomorphic curves. As a research assistant (m/f/x), you will independently and reliably work on the rigidity aspects of symplectic geometry and the computation of symplectic capacities. Scope: full-time Duration: fixed-term, 2 years Start: at the earliest possible date Apply by: 2026-08-18 Your tasks: - Research in symplectic geometry - Publication of research papers - Teaching in mathematics Your profile: - An above average doctoral degree in mathematics - Fluent spoken and written English is also required - Research experience in symplectic geometry - Experience with computation of symplectic capacities and Gromov-Witten invariants https://jobs.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/jobposting/f19637859a4f6d86b039acb1f142105aa8a74ea90?ref=AfA ( https://jobs.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/jobposting/f19637859a4f6d86b039acb1f142105aa8a74ea90?ref=AfA )
