Applicants sought for a postdoctoral position in connection with
an EPSRC grant EP/G064679/1 "Advances in Sublinear Algorithms"
(PI: Prof Artur Czumaj).

We are looking for highly qualified candidates with a PhD degree (or
expecting to get one very soon) in combinatorics, discrete mathematics,
theoretical computer science, or related fields.
The main focus of the post is on the research in the broadly understood
area of design and mathematical analysis of sublinear algorithms,
including research in property testing and combinatorics, and
sublinear-time approximation algorithms for combinatorial and optimization
problems.

The position is affiliated with the Foundations of Computer Science
Research Group (http://www.dcs.warwick.ac.uk/research/focs/) at
the Department of Computer Science and the Centre for Discrete Mathematics
and its Applications DIMAP (http://go.warwick.ac.uk/dimap/) at the
University of Warwick.

The post is Fixed Term Contract for 20 months with likely possibility of
extension.

GBP 27,319 - GBP 35,646 pa (appointments are usually made on the first point
