PhD Studentship: The Khintchine-Groshev Theorem: Beyond Removing Monotonicity
Overview
This PhD studentship focuses on the field of Diophantine Approximation and Fractal Geometry, specifically exploring the Khintchine-Groshev Theorem beyond the removal of monotonicity. The project investigates several potential research directions, such as applying the independence inheritance phenomenon within and beyond Diophantine Approximation, establishing an analogue of the Khintchine-Groshev Theorem in fractals, and examining the multivariable Khintchine-Groshev Theorem alongside matrix approximation. The hiring organization is the University of Exeter within the Mathematics and Statistics department, and funding is provided by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council through a Doctoral Landscape Award.
What you get
The position provides a stipend of £21,805 per annum along with funding for fees for the 2026/7 period. The contract is full-time and fixed-term.
Key dates
The closing date for applications is 2026-12-08.
