About this position

Postdoctoral Research Associate at the University of Exeter, UK, in number theory, arithmetic algebraic geometry, anabelian geometry, and arithmetic fundamental groups.

This is an EPSRC-funded full-time postdoctoral position on a research project led by Professor Mohamed Saidi. The project focuses on the anabelian geometry of algebraic curves and algebraic function fields in positive characteristic, including hyperbolic curves over algebraically closed fields and over the algebraic closure of a finite field.

Applicants should have a relevant PhD or be near completion, or have equivalent experience, with strong expertise in number theory and arithmetic algebraic geometry, especially arithmetic fundamental groups. The role also calls for the ability to develop research objectives, contribute to funding bids, present at conferences, collaborate effectively, and supervise others when needed.

The post starts on 1 April 2027 and runs until 31 December 2029. The advertised closing date is 18 January 2027. Salary starts from £35,302 on Grade E, depending on knowledge, skills and experience.
