This interview with Roland Steinbauer has been published by the UV’s public research newspaper Rudolphina.

It is connected with UV’s “semester question” How does quantum research change our reality? There have been three scientists interviewed, the other two being physicists. Roland’s contribution appears towards the end of the article.

Matteo Calisti today defended his thesis “Ricci curvature bounds and singularities in non-smooth spacetimes” (supervised by Michael Kunzinger, Clemens Sämann and Roland Steinbauer) and earned his Ph.D. with top marks.

Today three new Postdocs Luca Benatti, Davide Carazzato, and Miguel Manzano have joined our team.

Inés Vega González has joined our team as a Ph.D. student.

Omar Zoghlami has joined our team as a Ph.D. student.

The project has started today. Samuel Borza and Karim Mosani have joined the team as PostDocs and Joe Barton and Miguel Prados Abad as Ph.D. students. Also Marta Salamo and Sebastian Gieger have started their Ph.D. studies on topics closely related to the general directions of the project.

Update of 12.07.2024: this call is now closed.

In the research project

A new Geometry for Einstein’s Theory of Relativity and beyond

which has recently received major funding by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) in the framework of its “Emerging Fields” program (see https://ef-geometry.univie.ac.at), we are currently announcing:

• up to five Ph.D. positions;
• up to four PostDoc positions.

We are very glad to announce that our Emerging Field project on A new Geometry for Einstein’s Theory of Relativity & Beyond has been approved for funding by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) with an amount of 7 million Euro!
