The Geometry, Topology, and Physics group at New York University Abu Dhabi (NYUAD) is seeking a Post-Doctoral Associate to conduct research in geometric and topological aspects of physics, including in high energy and condensed matter systems. Applicants with a background in algebraic topology, higher geometry, or mathematical physics are encouraged to apply. Terms of employment include competitive salary and benefits.

Research in Professor Hisham Sati’s group focuses on proper formulations of physical theories, with the development of the mathematical constructions that are needed to provide such descriptions, and uncovering new geometric and topological structures arising from physical phenomena in high energy physics and in condensed matter physics.

The successful candidate will be joining a very active group, which includes Senior Research Scientist Urs Schreiber and several Post-Docs and students, having weekly seminars and several workshops and conferences thr...
