Postdoctoral Research Associate in Operator Algebras

We invite applications for a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Operator
Algebras to work with Professor Stuart White at the Mathematical Institute,
University of Oxford. The position is full time, fixed-term for three years,
and supported by a grant from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research
Council (EPSRC), grant reference EP/X026647/1. This position is to start for
the 2025-26 academic year, and the position is only tenable for the duration
of the grant, which ends 31 August 2028.





The successful candidate will be part of a research group with responsibility
for carrying out research in operator algebras and related fields as part of
the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) grant _“
Classification, Structure, Amenability and Regularity”_ ( _EP/X026647/1_ ).
They will be expected to conduct research in operator algebras and related
fields which falls within the remit of this large-scale project and will have
the opportunity to do so independently and/or collaboratively with other
members of the group at Oxford and/or other mathematicians internationally.
They are expected to provide informal mentorship of D. Phil students in the
