Excited by the geometry of spacetime? Join Radboud University’s Department of Mathematics for a four-year PhD in mathematical relativity. Explore perturbations in relativity, contribute to groundbreaking research, and gain valuable experience in an active academic community.
The Department of Mathematics at Radboud University (Nijmegen, Netherlands) is seeking an outstanding and highly motivated PhD candidate to work on a PhD project on mathematical relativity. The position, supervised by Sharmila Gunasekaran, will be funded for four years and includes a light teaching load (10%). Specific areas of interest include but are not limited to understanding how perturbations influence geometric structures in relativity. Potential problems include understanding spacetime stability through PDE-based analytical techniques and rigidity of quasi-Einstein metrics. You will participate in relevant conferences, workshops and seminars and communicate your findings through publications in peer-reviewed journals.
Upon successful completion, you will be awarded a PhD degree from Radboud University.
