As a postdoctoral researcher, you will be part of a committed team with ample opportunities for collaboration and participation in seminars and workshops. This position is ideal for researchers with a strong interest in derived categories, deformation theory, and noncommutative algebra.Your job
You will join a research group in algebraic geometry, working on a project focusing on noncommutative algebraic geometry. This project aims to find novel constructions of noncommutative surfaces, understand their properties, and try to generalize these constructions to higher dimensions. You will be embedded in the research group of Pieter Belmans, and more broadly, in the Utrecht Geometry Centre, a vibrant research hub with many activities like seminars, working groups, and conferences. The wider algebraic geometry landscape in the Netherlands is also highly active.You will also have the opportunity to further develop your own research agenda in the context of the research in algebraic geometry (and beyond) taking place at the Utrecht Geometry Centre.Where to apply WebsiteRequirementsSpecific RequirementsYou are an independent researcher with a collaborative mindset and bring the following qualifications:
