[Job-offers-cs] Postdoctoral position

[Pekka Orponen]

We invite applications for the position of Postdoctoral Research 
Assistant (PDRA) in the School of Mathematical Sciences for the project 
“Universality in Topological Data Analysis”, funded by the Leverhulme 
Trust. The successful applicant will work with Dr. Omer Bobrowski and 
Dr. Primoz Skraba, on developing the theory required to prove a series 
of conjectures on the universality properties of topological 
descriptors. A second goal is a fundamental challenge in Topological 
Data Analysis (TDA) – assessing the statistical significance of 
topological structures detected in data. The position comes with 
opportunities for attending workshops and conferences as well as 
establishing additional collaborations.

The successful applicant will have, or soon obtain, a PhD degree in 
mathematics, or equivalent level of professional qualifications and 
experience, in a field closely related to probability theory and/or 
applied topology, plus experience in writing high quality research papers.

The positition is up to 3 years.
