[DMANET] Two postdoc positions in Algebraic Graph Theory and Algebraic Geometry - University of Primorska, Slovenia

The Departments of Mathematics at the University of Primorska (FAMNIT and
IAM) invite applications for *two postdoctoral researcher positions* in:
1. Algebraic Graph Theory & Permutation Groups

*Supervisor:* Prof. Klavdija Kutnar
*Project Focus:* Extensions of the Erdős-Ko-Rado theorem to transitive
permutation groups, including derangement graphs and vertex-transitive
graphs.
*Requirements:* PhD in mathematics or related field. Expertise in algebraic
combinatorics, group theory, or graph theory. Familiarity with GAP or MAGMA
is desirable.
*Term:* 18 months
*Start Date:* Flexible between October 2025 and October 2026
*More details: *https://www.famnit.upr.si/en/news/postdoc-position-in-2
2. Galois Geometry & Group Actions

*Supervisor:* Prof. Michel Lavrauw
*Project Focus:* High-dimensional actions of classical groups in Galois
geometry, with applications to tensor decompositions, secant varieties, and
algebraic geometry over finite fields.
*Requirements:* PhD in mathematics or related area (algebra, finite
geometry, or algebraic geometry). Experience with GAP and projective
geometry is a plus.
*Term:* 1 year
*Start Date:* Flexible between September 2025 and October 2026
*More details: *https://www.famnit.upr.si/en/news/postdoc-position-in-1
