Postdoc in Geometric and Combinatorial Topology

The Department of Mathematics of Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam welcomes applications for a two-year Postdoctoral position in geometric and combinatorial topology. Preference will be given to candidates whose research connects with ongoing work at the Center for Topology, Algebra, and their Applications, in particular low-dimensional objects such as embedded graphs, knots and braids, manifolds, relationships between these objects such as bordisms, associated algebraic structures including cluster algebras, as well as applications of these. We are an inclusive, interdisciplinary group, and diversity and internationalism is at the heart of our research principles, as well as our teaching practice. The preferred starting date is 1 September 2027. Applications from all groups currently under-represented in academic posts are especially encouraged. We particularly welcome applications from women and people with an ethnic minority background.
