probability starting from 1st October 2016, or a date to be agreed (but no
sooner than 1st April 2016).
The position will be available for up to 3 years.

The position is funded by the EPSRC fellowship "Mathematical analysis of
strongly correlated processes on discrete dynamic structures" of Dr.
Alexandre Stauffer.
The area of research will be centered on the mathematical analysis of
random large-scale interacting systems, such as interacting particle
systems, random walks and other stochastic processes in random or dynamic
environments, percolation, spin systems, and dynamically evolving graphs.

The ideal candidate is expected to have a strong background in probability
theory, and have a PhD in mathematics, theoretical computer science or
related areas.

The successful applicant will be associated with the probability laboratory
(Prob-L@B) of the Department of Mathematical Sciences at the University of
Bath. Prob-L@B is one of the world's most vibrant probability groups, with
eight permanent members, a large cohort of PhD students and postdocs, and a
large number of different research activities and international visitors.

Applications made to the on-line system should include:
* an updated curriculum vitae (with publication list),
* the names and contact details of three academic referees,
