Berlin, Berlin, Deutschland Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik Vollzeit

We are seeking a motivated and outstanding researcher to join our team at the Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik as a PhD student.

Position Overview

This is a part-time position of 29.25 hours per week, with a fixed-term contract for three years. The salary will be according to the German TVöD Bund scale.

About the Job

The successful candidate will work on distributed algorithms for physics-based large-scale equilibrium problems in the Research Group "Nonsmooth Variational Problems and Operator Equations". This project involves studying systems in a game-theoretical context involving physical constraints taking the form of partial differential equations with uncertainties. The candidate will also analyze distributed stochastic models where agents do not share all information but need to find equilibrium strategies.

We are looking for a motivated researcher with a strong background in the theory and numerics of partial differential equations and a very good background in optimization and/or stochastic analysis. A master's degree in mathematics is required.

What We Offer

We offer a premier research environment known for its strength in optimization, optimal control, dynamical systems, and applied mathematics in general. Our institute has hosted flagship conferences in mathematical optimization such as ICCOPT 2019.

  • Payment according to the collective agreement for the public service (TVöD Bund) including the usual social benefits (30 vacation days in a 5-day week, company pension plan); subsidy for the company ticket for public transport
  • Mobile working
  • A certified (Audit berufundfamilie) family-friendly work environment.
  • Berlin is one of the most culture-rich and diverse international cities in the world. It offers endless opportunities to enjoy life outside work, while being very affordable compared to other major cities.
About Us

We are an institute of the Forschungsverbund Berlin e.V. (FVB), which comprises seven non-university research institutes in Berlin funded by the federal and state governments. Our research focuses on applied analysis and stochastics, with applications in various fields such as energy systems, finance, and climate modeling.

We highly welcome international applications. Scientifically, Berlin offers a rich landscape with numerous opportunities for research, as well as job prospects in academia and industry.
