Postdoc in the dynamics of high-dimensional disordered systems (M/F)

EURAXESS hosting organisation · Multiple European countries

The postdoctoral researcher will investigate out-of-equilibrium dynamics in high-dimensional disordered systems (including models relevant to machine learning and optimization) by characterizing the fixed points (metastable states, attractors) of the governing dynamical equations and the pathways connecting them. The focus will be on the geometry of high-dimensional random landscapes: identifying atypical, yet not rare, clusters of metastable states and low-energy pathways between them, and determining when and how constrained dynamical trajectories select these structures over more typical ones. The postdoc will (a) contribute to the research tasks, using both analytical and numerical methods, contributing to numerical validation of analytical predictions where relevant; (b) write up resu
