The Department of Mathematics at the University of Tennessee (Knoxville) is hiring an assistant professor in Topology; while the search is broadly in the area, the department is particularly interested in hiring a researcher in applied topology. Please apply by November 1 at https://www.mathjobs.org/jobs/list/18449. Note the instructions about the cover letter; this letter will help the committee gauge the candidate’s level of interest in the position.
The department is also having an area-open search for three postdocs (https://www.mathjobs.org/jobs/list/18453), and would be particularly interested in hiring a postdoc who could interact with the incoming assistant professor in Topology. In fact, choice of one of the postdocs could be a point of negotiation with the incoming assistant professor if time permits.
