Job description
The position is funded by Prof. Coti Zelati’s EPSRC Stable structures and chaotic dynamics in fluid flows . It will involve the analysis of dynamical aspects of fluid and related equations.
You will work closely with Michele Coti Zelati on topics related to Partial Differential Equations, Stochastic Analysis, and Dynamical Systems, with particular emphasis on fluid dynamics, transport equations, mixing and stochastic PDEs.
The proposed research aims at the development of new mathematical tools in partial differential equations, harmonic analysis and probability to help understand cascade mechanisms in fluids ubiquitous phenomena in nature that, to these days, remain poorly understood from the mathematical viewpoint.
The goal is to tackle, from a rigorous mathematical perspective, central questions regarding the stability and long-time behaviour of the Navier-Stokes and Euler equations of incompressible fluids.
You will be active part of the organization of the applied PDEs seminar, will participate to reading classes and informal seminars on research-level topics, and generally be an enthusiastic and committed full time postdoctoral researcher in the team.
- A PhD (or equivalent) in Mathematics or a field related to the Programme
- A broad and strong background in analysis of PDEs, dynamical systems and probability
- Clear evidence of outstanding promise and originality in research, with a good publication record, commensurate with career stage
- Excellent written communication skills and the ability to write clearly and succinctly for publication
- Ability to identify, develop and apply concepts, techniques and methods in new contexts
- Ability to keep accurate records of research results and activity
- Ability to conduct a detailed review of recent literature
- Creative approach to problem-solving
- Ability to organise own work independently
- Ability to prioritise own work in response to deadlines
- Ability to work effectively with a team of researchers and across disciplines
- High level analytical capability
- Willingness to travel both within the United Kingdom and abroad to conduct research and attend conferences
- The opportunity to continue your career at a world-leading institution and be part of our mission to continue science for humanity.
- Grow your career :
Gain access to Imperial’s sector-leading as well as opportunities for promotion and progression
- Sector-leading salary and remuneration package (including 39 days off a year and generous pension schemes).
