Missions

Two postdocs positions are open at Université Paris-Cité (UPC) within the IMJ-PRG institute. The two positions are funded by the ANR-DFG project SUSPENSIONS, dedicated to the analysis and mathematical derivation of models describing many particles in a fluid.
See https://webusers.imj-prg.fr/~amina.mecherbet/ANR-DFG-project.html pour plus for more details on the ANR project.

Activités

The persons recruited will contribute to one of the following objectives of the project:

Derivation of effective equations starting from underlying microscopic models (fluid-mechanics analysis, homogenization, optimal transport)
Analysis of PDE models for suspensions (fluid-kinetic theory, non local non linear transport equations), for instance with regard to existence, uniqueness and qualitative properties such as long-time behavior of solutions, controllability, (in)stability of equilibria.

Compétences

The recruited person must have expertise in one of the themes mentioned above (homogenization, mean field limit, fluid-kinetic model analysis, (in)stability, existence theory and uniqueness for transport equations)

Contexte de travail

The recruited candidate will be a postdoctoral fellow in the IMJ-PRG's functional analysis team and will interact with Amina Mecherbet and David Gérard-Varet within IMJ-PRG, as well as with external members of the ANR.
