Junior Professorship in Analysis (W1)

We are looking for a junior researcher with a very good research profile in a current area of mathematical analysis related to the research profile of the department. Possible research topics include partial differential equations, geometric measure theory, or harmonic analysis. The excellent research activity should be demonstrated by publications in leading journals. Teaching experience is desirable. The future incumbent is expected to have a high level of commitment to teaching, especially in the full spectrum of analysis and its applications as well as in teacher training and in supervising students. Particular emphasis will be placed on attracting research funding and the openness towards cooperation with established research groups at the Mathematical Institute and the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences. Junior professorships should be seen as opportunities for further qualification. This call is therefore aimed at applicants who, having completed a good doctoral degree (with the honour magna cum laude or higher), wish to obtain a further qualification and have not completed a habilitation. If the applicant was employed as research or graduate assistant prior to or after completing his or her doctorate, then the doctorate and employment phases should have lasted no more than six years in total. The junior professorship is initially limited to three years. It will be extendable by a further three years subject to successful intermediate evaluation according to the Regulations on the Interim Evaluation Procedure for Junior Professors at Leipzig University (ZEvaO). The job holder’s rights and obligations are regulated by the Saxon Higher Education Act (SächsHSG) and the Saxon Service Regulations for Higher Education Institutions (DAVOHS). Applicants must meet the requirements of § 64, 65, 72 SächsHSG. Leipzig University is committed to gender equality. Severely disabled persons are encouraged to apply and will be given preference in the case of equal suitability.
