Research Associate in Nonlinear PDEs

About the Role

We seek a research associate in Nonlinear PDEs with a Ph.D. in mathematics and a demonstrated ability to conduct high-level research. We are particularly interested in candidates working in the following areas:

• Construction of solutions to nonlinear elliptic equations that arise as stationary or traveling-wave solutions in problems related to geometry and physics.
• Analysis of singularity formation and asymptotic behavior of solutions to evolutionary PDEs, particularly in geometric flows and fluid dynamics.
• Problems involving the evolution or equilibrium of long-range interactions modeled by nonlocal equations.

As a member of Research Staff at the University of Bath, you will be encouraged to take up a minimum of 10 days professional development pro rata per year.

Required Expertise

• A Ph.D. in mathematics, obtained in 2020 or later, with research experience in nonlinear PDEs or related fields such as Fluid Dynamics, Geometric Analysis, or the Calculus of Variations.
• A demonstrated research record, including written publications and the effective communication of results through seminars or conferences.
