[DMANET] POSTDOC POSITIONS IN ALGORITHMS AND COMPLEXITY AT OXFORD

Two postdoc positions are available in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Oxford as part of the ERC Starting Grant Power of Algorithms in Discrete Optimisation (PowAlgDO) led by Standa Zivny. The project will run from 01/2017 to 12/2021 and will focus on establishing the power of convex relaxations (such as linear and semidefinite programming) for various classes of constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) with respect to exact and approximate solvability.

The positions are available from 1 January 2017 (or later) and will be for 3 years (with the possibility of extension). The positions comes with a travel support and no teaching duties (but the possibility of doing some teaching). The postholders will be members of Oxford's Algorithms and Complexity Theory Group.

The deadline is 30 November. Interviews will be held on 15 December.
