What we seek:
We look for highly motivated young postdoctoral researchers on Differential Geometry, Topology, Dynamical Systems and/or PDE's with an outstanding CV and publication records. Candidates must hold a PhD on these topics.
What we plan to offer:
We plan to offer a postdoctoral contracts with a competitive stipend. These contracts will be focused on the project COMPLEXFLUID. The contracs will be cofinanced by the FBBVA project.
The candidates will be based at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC, Barcelona, Spain). Availability to spent short periods at Instituto de Ciencias Matemáticas (ICMAT) and Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM), both in Madrid, and at Universidad de Sevilla (US) is highly desirable.
The position is research-only and completely teaching-duty free.
Timeline:
The contracts must start no sooner than February 2023 and no later than July 2023.
The topic:
The research will be centered on the many facets of the complexity of fluids (topological, dynamical, computational and geometrical). Some topics around this idea to be explored are the following:
1- Embedding theorems as Euler and Navier-Stokes flows. Geometrical aspects of embedding theorems in Fluids:
Lie theory, quantization and representation theory.
2- Computational and logical complexity. Undecidability and Turing completeness in hydrodynamics.
Computational and logical complexity and on the dynamical complexity of fluids. The computational complexity of Euler and Navier-Stokes equations.
3- Dynamical complexity of fluids: Chaos and fluids. Topological complexity in fluids and connections with computability. Stability analysis à la Friedlander-Vishik.
