Title:Doctor in project about Lie-Poisson discretizations and Kähler geometry
Employer:Chalmers University of Technology
Location:Maskingränd 2 Gothenburg, Sweden
Published:2026-04-10
Application deadline:2026-05-10
This research project position is about numerical simulations and theoretical investigations of finite-dimensional matrix Lie-Poisson discretizations of the 2-D Euler equations, with a particular emphasis on the connection to topics and techniques from Kähler-Einstein geometry. These matrix discretizations preserve the rich phase space geometry of the 2-D Euler equations, such as co-adjoint orbits, Casimir functions, and Hamiltonian structure of the phase flow, which makes them suitable for studying the long-term behavior of generic solutions via computer simulations.
The candidate must have a Doctoral degree in mathematics, preferably with a thesis combining elements of both differential geometry and computational mathematics
Prior experience with homogeneous space structures – especially in the context of low-rank matrices - and of the development of scientific simulation software is a necessary qualification.
The position requires sound verbal and written communication skills in English.
