Studentship+fees to study for a PhD in Algorithmic Network Theory at Imperial College London
I am actively looking for an excellent PhD candidate to work with me on problems at the frontier
between graph theory, game theory and statistical physics, in particular
- Random graph theory and stochastic processes (random walks, percolation, games) on graphs
- Analysis of distributed Belief Propagation-type algorithms to solve combinatorial optimisation
problems (bargaining, network creation..)
- Distributed algorithms for computational problems on networks (control of epidemics, data
aggregation, dissemination of information)
The successful candidate will have a good 1st degree and ideally an MSc degree from a reputable
university in Theoretical Computer Science/Discrete Mathematics, and a strong background in
probability and stochastic processes. The funding covers stipend, and fees for EU/UK students
together with travel fund to conferences and summer schools for the duration of the PhD.
Please contact me with any questions at m.draief@imperial.ac.uk before formally applying to
Imperial College London.
