[DMANET] 2 PhD Positions in Algorithmic Graph Theory

We announce openings for up to 2 PhD positions in Algorithmic Graph
Theory, each for 2-3 years. The positions begin at the end of 2020 and
come with social security and generous travel money. The competitive
salary depends on the applicants qualification and is in the range
66%-100% E13 (about 30.000-50.000 Euro/year gross).

The PhD students will join the project "Resilient Broadcasting via
Independent Spanning-Trees" and be supervised by Jens M. Schmidt. The
research focus will be on algorithmic graph theory for connectivity
problems in graphs. As this is at the intersection of discrete
mathematics and theoretical computer science, candidates should have an
excellent background in structural graph theory and/or efficient
algorithms. Solid English mathematical writing skills and basic teaching
experience are desirable.

Applicants should send their application until July 10th by email to
jens.schmidt@tu-ilmenau.de as a single PDF-file containing
- curriculum vitae (including a list of publications if there are any)
- a list of courses and grades, and a scan of the diploma
- a summary of the (possibly preliminary) thesis (max. 1 page)
- names and emails of one or two references (including thesis advisor)

Informal inquiries about the positions can be made by writing to the
same email address.
