Position description
The Department of Mathematics at the University of California,
Berkeley invites applications for a Postdoctoral Scholar supervised
and mentored by Berkeley's algebra and number theory RTG group,
which includes Tony Feng, David Nadler, Martin Olsson, Sug Woo
Shin, and Yunqing Tang. The direct supervisor/main PI mentor will
depend on what area of research the candidate will focus on.
Areas of interest include arithmetic geometry, representation
theory, algebraic geometry, automorphic forms, number theory.
This will be a 3-year position. Deferment can be considered for one
year.
Teaching duties: The lecturer will be expected to teach two classes
per year. Courses will be assigned on an as-needed basis. It is
likely that the postdoc will be invited to help (co-)teach a new
experimental course on mathematics exploration and research for
undergraduates.
General Lecturer duties: In addition to teaching responsibilities,
general duties include holding office hours, assigning grades,
advising students, preparing course materials (e.g., syllabus),
maintaining a course website, and using a learning management
system( e.g. bCourses at UC Berkeley, Canvas, etc.).
Research duties: the postdoc will be expected to work
collaboratively with one or more of the PIs, write up results for
publication in peer-reviewed journals, and disseminate research to
the broader scientific community through seminar and conference
talks, as is standard. Topics of research are algebraic geometry,
number theory, and representation theory.
Synergistic duties: The research group expects to organize weekly
research seminars, learning seminars, and social gatherings. The
postdoc would be expected to participate in activities when
possible, and help to co-organize the seminars.
In addition, the research group will run a summer REU. The postdoc
