I am seeking a research associate (aka postdoc) who should ideally be someone just completed or with a few years post-PhD research expereience.

The project is studying the real chromatic roots of graphs and matroids, so experience with

- graph polynomials (Tutte, chromatic etc), and/or partition function of the q-state Potts model
- the roots of these polynomials, basic complex analysis
- relationship between graphs and matroids, role of minor-closed classes etc

would be well-received.

Details of rhe application procedure can be found here:
