[DMANET] Postdoctoral research position in discrete mathematics, Ryerson University

*Postdoctoral research position in discrete mathematics, Ryerson University*


Applications are invited for one postdoctoral fellow in discrete
mathematics in the Department of Mathematics at Ryerson University (
http://math.ryerson.ca/) to begin on September 1, 2020. The research will
be led jointly by the members of the Graphs at Ryerson research group,
including: Drs. Anthony Bonato, Peter Danziger, Michelle Delcourt, Dejan
Delic, Konstantinos Georgiou, and Pawel Pralat. This position provides an
opportunity to engage in research in Mathematics, with a limited amount of
teaching, and is suited for talented mathematicians who have recently
completed their Ph.D. The salary is competitive, with funding provided for
a year and with potential for renewal for a second year.


The applicant should have a PhD in Mathematics or Computer Science. The
ideal candidate would have expertise in one or more of the areas of
interest to the above-mentioned researchers, such as: combinatorial
designs, combinatorial optimization, complex networks, discrete algorithms,
computational complexity, extremal combinatorics, graph searching, random
graphs, relational structures, and structural graph theory. The position is
open to candidates of any nationality and selection will be based upon the
candidate's research record and potential. As the applicant will normally
teach, some teaching experience is preferred.

Applicants should provide a cover letter, curriculum vitae, and three
letters of recommendation. At least one of these letters should report on
the candidate's teaching abilities.

Applicants should apply no later than April 13, 2020, and the position will
remain open until filled. Please note the position is advertised pending
budgetary approval.

Application material and reference letters will be submitted by e-mail to
konstantinos@ryerson.ca

consideration will be contacted. Ryerson University welcomes those who have
demonstrated a commitment to upholding the values of equity, diversity, and
inclusion and will assist us to expand our capacity for diversity in the
broadest sense. In addition, we encourage applications from members of
