The Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences (PIMS) is recruiting two postdoctoral scholars for its Collaborative Research Group on Asymptotic Geometric Analysis, Convex and Discrete Geometry, and Combinatorics (2026–2029 term). The positions are attached to a multi-site research environment spanning Canadian partner sites, with the successful candidates selecting one of the CRG locations as their main base while being encouraged to take part in collaborative research visits across the group. The project sits at the intersection of modern geometric analysis and combinatorics, with research themes including asymptotic geometric analysis, convex geometry, discrete geometry, and related overlapping areas. The postdoctoral scholars are expected to contribute to the CRG’s research program, engage with activities across participating institutions, and help build links among mathematicians working in these connected fields. The CRG is organized by a team based at universities in Canada and the United States, bringing together expertise from the University of Calgary, University of Alberta, University of Manitoba, and the University of Washington. The role includes participation in CRG events and collaboration with graduate and undergraduate student researchers across the participating institutions. The appointment is designed for early-career mathematicians who will work within an active collaborative network in the mathematical sciences.
