[DMANET] Postdoctoral Position in Graph and Network Theory for Geometric Networks

Postdoctoral Position in Graph and Network Theory for Geometric Networks
Postdoctoral supervisor: Dr. Bojan Mohar

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral fellowship position in
discrete mathematics starting in May 2024 (a delayed starting date can
be negotiated). The applications are open to candidates of any
nationality and selection will be based upon the candidate's research
potential.

It is expected that candidates hold a PhD degree at the moment of
employment. The doctoral degree is in mathematics or in related fields
(CS or physics) with strong mathematical component. A background and
interest in some of the following fields is desired:
- structural graph theory;
- geometric graph theory;
- random networks;
- discrete geometry.

The selected candidate will participate in the research through the ERC
Synergy grant KARST

https://erc-karst.eu/

and will also be able to continue with their ongoing research work in
related areas.

The position is for 12-24 months with possible extension for another
year. The candidate will be able to split time between the University of
Ljubljana in Slovenia and the Simon Fraser University in Canada.

The fellowship will provide an annual salary in the range 38.000 -
42.500 EUR, depending on previous experience and subject to some strict
regulations. There is also a 3,000 EUR allowance for travel and research
expenses.

To apply, do the following:
- send an email to sergio.cabello@fmf.uni-lj.si with subject "postdoc
KARST" including a cover letter, a curriculum vitae, and a research
statement;
- arrange that at least three letters of reference are sent to
sergio.cabello@fmf.uni-lj.si with subject "postdoc KARST". The letters
should be sent directly by the recommender or their administrative
assistants.

The call is open-ended until a suitable candidate is found. The first
selection process will start on April 2, 2024 and
all applications received by that date will be evaluated together.
