PhD positions in Mathematics.
The PhD positions are fully funded for four years.
The Starting date is October 1st, 2026.
The Deadline for the applications is June 16th, 2026.
The candidates for PhD positions should have a Master's degree in
Mathematics (obtained in the last 4 years or by September 24th 2026 at the
latest) and a very good knowledge of the English language.
PhD Position in Graph Theory:
Supervisor: Dr. Slobodan Filipovski
The young researcher will join the research program P1-0285: Algebra,
discrete mathematics, probability and game theory. The young researcher
will work in the field of graph theory, with particular emphasis on
algebraic, structural, and chemical graph theory. The proposed research may
address topics such as extremal problems in graph theory, properties of
graphs with prescribed symmetry or regularity, graph invariants, spectral
parameters, chemical graph invariants and descriptors, as well as selected
questions concerning special classes of graphs and their combinatorial
structure. The project is intended to provide advanced training in
contemporary discrete mathematics through rigorous theoretical work, the
development of original methods, and, where appropriate, the use of
computational techniques in support of mathematical investigation.

PhD position in Number Theory
Supervisor: Dr. Aleksander Simonič
Description: The young researcher will join the research program P1-0404:
Mathematical modelling and encryption: from theoretical concepts to
real-life applications. The young researcher will work in analytic number
theory, with a focus on the Riemann zeta-function and related Dirichlet
L-functions, especially on questions concerning their values, logarithmic
derivatives, zeros in and near the critical strip, and the implications of
these phenomena for the distribution of prime numbers. The project can
combine classical methods from complex analysis with explicit and effective
techniques, aiming not only for theoretical results but also for concrete
numerical bounds and formulas. This research area offers a strong entry
point into modern number theory.
