16 hours ago


Odense M, Denmark Syddansk Universitet Full time

The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at the University of Southern Denmark, Odense, invites applications for a PhD position in operator algebras with a focus on the structure of nuclear C*-algebras and operator systems and generalized inductive limits. The starting date is June 1, 2025 (or nearby date).

Candidate Profile
We are looking for a highly motivated student with a general interest in operator algebras and/or non-commutative geometry. The student is expected to hold a master’s degree in mathematics by the starting date for the position (June 1, 2025) and have a solid background within functional analysis and an interest in working within the field of operator algebras. The position is associated with the Inge Lehmann project “C*-algebras at the Limit: a new construction” funded by Independent Research Fund Denmark. The hired candidate will be supervised by Kristin (Courtney) Gabe.

Fluency in English is required.

About the Workgroup
The PhD student will belong to the Operator Algebra group within the Topology, Analysis, Algebra, and Geometry (TAAG) research section. The Operator Algebra group boasts several permanent faculty members working in operator algebras and noncommutative geometry. The TAAG section conducts research within a broad spectrum of pure mathematics, and the section has close ties with SDU’s Center for Quantum Mathematics.

About the Department and the University
Based in Odense, the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science offers an inclusive and international working environment with state-of-the-art facilities as well as a strong tradition for collaboration across departments and faculties, and with other educational institutions, municipalities, and industries. More than two thirds of the department's employees come from outside of Denmark.

The University of Southern Denmark was founded in 1966 and now has more than 27,000 students, almost 20% of whom are from abroad. It has more than 3,800 employees, and 115 different study programmes in the fields of the humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, health sciences, and engineering. Its main campus is located in Odense, the third largest city in Denmark. Odense provides family-friendly living conditions with the perfect combination of a historic city centre with an urban feel and yet a close proximity to beaches and recreational areas. Its location on the beautiful island of Funen is ideal with easy access by train or highway to the bigger cities of Aarhus and Copenhagen. As the birthplace of Hans Christian Andersen, Denmark’s famous fairytale author, the city is home to a vibrant and creative population that hosts numerous festivals and markets throughout the year.

Application deadline: 28 February 2025 at 23:59 hours local Danish time
