The expected starting date is between December 1, 2016, and February 1,
2017, and is negotiable.
The institute is looking for candidates that would strengthen and/or
complement existing research areas in the group, such as structural graph
theory, computational complexity or approximation algorithms. Strong
candidates from all areas of theoretical computer science and discrete
mathematics will be considered. For further information about the research
group see the webpages of CSI and the closely related Department of
Applied Mathematics at http://iuuk.mff.cuni.cz/ and
http://kam.mff.cuni.cz/. Informal inquiries are welcome and may be sent to
