Dear colleagues,

We are currently inviting applications for a fully funded *PhD position* in the area of statistical inference for stochastic processes, with a focus on interacting particle systems driven by fractional Brownian motion and potential applications.

The position will be jointly supervised by *Chiara Amorino* (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona) and *Mira Shevchenko* (Université Côte d’Azur, Nice). The successful candidate will divide their time between the two institutions and will be affiliated with the *SPECTRUM Graduate School* at Université Côte d’Azur.

- *Starting date*: No later than December 1, 2025 - *Gross monthly salary*: Approximately €2,500

We welcome applications from candidates who meet the following criteria:

- A Master’s degree (or equivalent) in Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, or a closely related field, completed by the starting date of the PhD. - A solid background or strong interest in stochastic analysis, stochastic processes, and/or mathematical statistics. - Familiarity with stochastic differential equations and/or Malliavin calculus is considered an asset.

*To apply*, please send the following documents to [ eur-spectrum.aap@univ-cotedazur.fr] by *May 12, 2025*, with Chiara Amorino ( chiara.amorino@upf.edu) and Radomyra Shevchenko ( radomyra.shevchenko@univ-cotedazur.fr) in cc:

1. CV 2. Transcripts of academic records (Master’s), including rankings if available 3. Motivation letter (max. 1 page) 4. Two recommendation letters

For any preliminary inquiries, feel free to contact either Chiara or Mira via the email addresses above. If you know any motivated students, I’d be grateful if you could pass this along!
