Full time 12 months fixed term, located on the Camperdown Campus at the School of Mathematics and Statistics Opportunity to be part of a vibrant and collegial community of world-class mathematicians and statisticians Base Salary, Level A $109,301 - $116,679 p.a. + 17% superannuation About the opportunity The University of Sydney is welcoming applications for a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations to work on the project "Singular solutions for nonlinear elliptic and parabolic equations", held by Professor Florica Cirstea . This project is funded by the Australian Research Council.
The successful candidate will be expected to carry out collaborative research on this project, and we are looking for someone with a background in nonlinear partial differential equations with isolated/boundary singularities. The project will focus on the local/global behavior of singular solutions for general classes of elliptic/parabolic equations with nonlinear source terms, along with the existence and classification of the singular behavior for nonlinear elliptic equations with boundary singularities.
Teaching is not a requirement; however, opportunities to teach may be available if desired.
Your key responsibilities will be to:
undertake research in the area of the project
publication of research papers
demonstrate research excellence
assist with grant writing and publishing original work
About you The University values courage and creativity; openness and engagement; inclusion and diversity; and respect and integrity. As such, we see the importance of recruiting talent aligned to these values and are looking for a Postdoctoral Research Associate who has:
a PhD in Mathematics with preference in Partial Differential Equations
proven published research as sole author or in collaboration
experience in research record keeping, preparation of research papers and seminars
ability to carry out high-quality research in the areas of nonlinear analysis and partial differential equations
a background in elliptic/parabolic equations/fully nonlinear partial differential equations
demonstrated ability to conduct high-quality research under limited supervision either independently or as part of a research team
high level of interpersonal skills, including the ability to work collaboratively with colleagues
demonstrated ability to complete work in a timely fashion and to write up results for publication
excellent written and verbal communication skills.
Pre-employment checks Your employment is conditional upon the completion of all role-required pre-employment or background checks in terms satisfactory to the University. Similarly, your ongoing employment is conditional upon the satisfactory maintenance of all relevant clearances and background check requirements. If you do not meet these conditions, the University may take any necessary steps, including the termination of your employment.
