About this position

This postdoctoral project at EPFL sits at the intersection of geometric group theory, geometric analysis, and the study of Anosov representations. The AnSur project focuses on the global geometry of deformation spaces of Anosov representations, with particular emphasis on positive representations and their relation to geometric analysis.

The research is motivated by the structure of hyperbolic groups and the way their boundary geometry is reflected in linear settings through Anosov representations. A central theme is the interaction between asymptotic objects such as limit sets in flag manifolds and analytic structures arising from PDEs of geometric origin, including problems related to Higgs bundles.

The successful candidate will work closely with members of the department in related areas, collaborate with other postdocs, and contribute to seminars, lectures, and conferences with the PI. The role also offers opportunities to supervise students if needed and to contribute to teaching connected to the project, especially for those interested in an academic career.

The position is embedded in an international research environment at EPFL, with opportunities to travel and to host visiting researchers in the field. The project is closely linked to ongoing international research activity in geometry and analysis.

Funding details

Competitive salary; full-time postdoctoral contract (100%); fixed for one year initially, renewable up to two years.

What's required

Highly motivated applicants with proven scientific excellence in related areas such as surface group representations, geodesic currents, or geometric analysis are sought. A strong publication record is required. The advert asks for a cover letter, CV with publication list, research statement, and at least three references.

How to apply

Apply through the online platform only. Submit a brief cover letter, a CV with publication list, a research statement, and names of at least three references. For research questions, contact Prof. François Labourie at [email protected].
