Dear toplist,

  Please take note of the following ad.  The start date and duration
of the positions are flexible and could accommodate different
schedules.  And as is mentioned below, we are tentatively going ahead
with our plans to hold an emphasis semester in homotopy theory in the
fall of 2003.

Announcement: Postdoctoral Positions
              Department of Mathematics
              University of Western Ontario
              London, Ontario, Canada

The Mathematics Department at the University of Western Ontario has
two postdoctoral positions available in the areas of homotopy theory
and mathematical physics.  The appointments are for one or two years,
beginning roughly July 1, 2002.  The positions carry a reduced teaching
load of two half-courses per year, in addition to research.  The salary
will be $38,000 CDN per year, plus a tax free research fund of $1,500.
The cost of living in London is quite low.

Successful candidates will have completed a Ph.D. degree in the past
two years, and have active research programs in homotopy theory or
mathematical physics which overlap with research programs of our
faculty.  For the homotopy theory position, there are tentative plans
for an emphasis semester in homotopy theory during the Fall of 2003
which the candidate could participate in.  For the mathematical
physics position, there is an opportunity for interaction with the
Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Waterloo.

Applicants should send a curriculum vitae and a research statement,
and have at least three letters of reference sent to:

J.F. Jardine
Chair, Department of Mathematics
University of Western Ontario
London, Ontario N6A 5B7
Canada

E-mail inquiries and applications are welcome, sent to math-pos@uwo.ca.
The closing date for receipt of applications and letters of reference is
January 1, 2002.
