TU Graz: One Postdoctoral Position in Combinatorics
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We are seeking outstanding candidates with expertise and proficiency in
analytic and enumerative combinatorics, singularity analysis,
saddle-point methods, cycle index sums, Boltzmann sampler, probabilistic
and structural graph theory.
The successful candidate will be employed as a Postdoctoral Researcher
for one year with a possibility of extension for a further period of
maximum two years within the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) Research Project on
"Asymptotic Properties of Graphs on a Surface"
at the Institute of Optimisation and Discrete Mathematics at Graz
University of Technology (TU Graz), Austria,
http://www.math.tugraz.at/mathb/.
This is a research position and does not carry any teaching
responsibilities. There is however a possibility to teach if one wishes
to do so. The preferred starting date is 1 March 2015, but negotiable.
The basic salary is specified in the FWF standard personnel costs and

There are extra salary payments, the so-called 13th- and 14th-month
salaries which are favourably taxed.
There are very active research groups working on Discrete Mathematics
and Combinatorics at TU Graz. For example, TU Graz hosts a doctoral
school "Discrete Mathematics" (funded by FWF)
https://www.math.tugraz.at/discrete/.
Further information about the mathematical institutes at TU Graz is
available at https://www.math.tugraz.at/
Condition of employment:

theoretical computer science before the time of appointment
Application documents:
- Cover letter of application
- Curriculum vitae including the list of publications
- A short statement of research interests
- A list of full contact information of two references who can submit
