Postdoc in Numerical Analysis

There is an open 2-year postdoctoral position at the Institute of Mathematics of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Prague, see https://app.math.cas.cz/public/positions The deadline for applications is March 31, 2026, while the successful candidate is expected to start from July 2026 or upon agreement. We invite applications of young researchers working in the fields of numerical analysis to join our team. We are looking for a young researcher who has achieved convincing results in this area of research and who has completed his or her PhD degree in Mathematics within the last 2 years. The successful applicant will perform research in the Department of Constructive Methods of Mathematical Analysis, which has a long tradition of excellent research in numerical analysis. The topics may include those already studied in the department such as domain decomposition methods, high-performance computing, numerical linear algebra, finite element methods, and error estimates. However, complementary topics in numerical analysis and HPC are also welcome. The position is not associated with a particular project and gives the successful candidate the option to carry on research in his/her own direction. No teaching is involved. We require verbal and written English communication skills and abilities to work both independently and collaboratively. The selection committee will judge professional record of applicants, with respect to the stage of their career.
