POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH FELLOW in ALGORITHMS AND COMPLEXITY
(ALGORITHMIC GAME THEORY)
A researcher is required to participate in the EPSRC-funded Research
Project Algorithmic Mechanism Design and Optimization Problems with
Economic Applications.
The research will be undertaken within the Economics and Computation
Research Group in the Department of Computer Science at the University
of Liverpool (UK), under the supervision of Dr Piotr Krysta.
The aim of the project is to apply algorithmic and computational
complexity tools to game theoretic problems motivated by concrete
applications in electronic commerce and networks.
In particular approximation algorithms techniques will be used. The
project may involve collaboration with other staff members in the
Department of Computer Science at the University of Liverpool.
The successful candidate will have a PhD in the area of Algorithms
and Complexity Theory. Knowledge and/or a PhD in the area of
Algorithmic Game Theory will be highly appreciated.
The post is available for 20 months, commencing on 1 August 2010,
or as soon as possible thereafter, by negotiation; a further short
extension may be possible. The salary range is GBP 30,747--35,646 pa.
