The School of Mathematics and Statistics at The University of Melbourne is seeking a full-time Research Fellow to work on an ARC funded project in algebraic graph theory. The position is for two years, with the possibility of extension for up to one additional year. The expected starting date is July 1, 2025, but an earlier or slightly later commencement date is possible.
This postdoctoral position is associated with an ARC Discovery Project led by Sanming Zhou and Binzhou Xia. The goal of the project is to study perfect codes in selected classes of Cayley graphs, with a focus on their existence, construction and connection with underlying groups.
The candidate should have a PhD in mathematics with strong expertise in one or more of the following areas: symmetry of graphs (in particular, vertex-transitive graphs, Cayley graphs and their applications); group theory (in particular, actions of finite groups on combinatorial structures, representations and characters of groups); combinatorics (in particular, designs, codes, and their links to graphs and algebraic structures).
The full job advertisement, including a position description and a link to the online application system, can be found at

The closing date for applications is April 21, 2025.
For more information, please contact Sanming Zhou, E-mail: sanming@unimelb.edu.au, and/or Binzhou Xia, E-mail: xia.b@unimelb.edu.au
