The School of Mathematical Sciences at Monash University has an active group of staff involved in leading-edge research in applied mathematics, in most cases also utilising modern computational methods. Currently, there are about 20 staff and about 35 research students working in the broad fields of applied and computational mathematics.

The School is located at the Clayton campus of Monash University, which is situated in the suburbs of Melbourne, capital city in the southern state of Victoria, Australia. Melbourne is a modern city with an vibrant cultural life and a population of about 3.8 million (spread over a large area). It has a moderate oceanic climate, with average

Applications are invited for a Ph.D. position to work on Interacting stochastic models on complex networks

Complex networks with small-world properties occur in a multitude of real-world communication networks. In this project we shall investigate the nature of interacting systems on such networks and understand their phase-transitions.

The student will be supervised by C. K ulske, A. C. D. van Enter (Groningen) and R. van der Hofstad (Eurandom, Eindhoven). The Ph.D. student will be based in Groningen with longer visits to Eurandom.

The Groningen group working on the probability theory of interacting systems will consist of two sta members, two senior part-time positions and 4 Ph.D. students, and has strong international ties.
