Welcome to the Mathematics Jobs Wiki 2016-2017 research positions page. This page collects information about the academic mathematics job market: positions, short lists, offers, acceptances, etc. It lists positions at PhD-granting departments (including stat and applied math), and at departments that are research-oriented by other reasonable criteria. See the teaching positions page for more teaching-oriented academic math jobs.

We are interested in information provided in good faith. Do not post wild hunches, and please respect the trust of your friends and colleagues.
Have you accepted a position? If so, it's a great courtesy to other job applicants to post that information here.

A shortlist reported on this wiki is the list of candidates who were invited to give a talk ("Einladung zum Vorstellungsvortrag"); the order of the names has no significance. Official rankings of candidates ("Listenplätze"), if known, are indicated by a number in parentheses after a name, or they are implied by the order in which candidates who received offers ("Rufe") are listed.
Preferred sorting order of names: Offers and acceptances in chronological order, followed by all other invited candidates in alphabetical order.
Long-term/temp W positions
Faculty searches in Germany do not follow the academic year schedule and sometimes take very long. We continue to collect information about these faculty positions (for jobs with deadlines before July 2016) in the Mathematics Jobs Wiki 2015-2016 or pages corresponding to earlier years (use the navigation sidebar).
