Description du poste

Postdoctoral researcher in mathematics, specifically holomorphic dynamics: two-year position with possibility of renewal for a third year

RESEARCHER PROFILE Postdoc/R2: PhD holders

RESEARCH FIELD(S): Mathematics

The postdoctoral position is part of a research team in random matrix and random tensor theory based in France (Marseille, Grenoble, Lyon, Paris, Toulouse, Bordeaux) around the ANR TAGADA started on Oct, 1st 2025 https://www.ceremade.dauphine.fr/dokuwiki/anr-tagada:start. The goal of TAGADA is to lay the foundations of random tensor theory and foster a multidisciplinary research community. We have identified three axis and research topics: quantum information theory (tensor norms, random tensor networks), data & learning (tensor moments of latent variable models, community detection on hypergraphs), free probability for tensors (strong convergence for tensor representations, tensors maps, eigenvalues and eigenvectors).

The ideal candidate has an excellent PhD in this or a related area, and brings strong experience and/or interest in at least one of the mentioned project topics. It is expected that the candidate will participate to the various events organized by TAGADA.
