[DMANET] Post-doc position in Geometric Graph Theory in Grenoble (France)

The Combinatorial Optimization group of Laboratoire G-SCOP in Grenoble, France https://g-scop.grenoble-inp.fr/en/research/combinatorial-optimisation is advertizing a 12 month postdoctoral position on the topic of geometric graph theory (including coarse equivalents of classical graph theorems and parameters, asymptotic minors, coarse embeddings).

Candidates with a background on algorithmic, structural, and/or metric graph theory are welcome to apply. Please don't hesitate to contact louis.esperet@grenoble-inp.fr if you have any question.

The starting date of the position is planned to be in September or October 2026 but can be negotiated. The gross salary will be between 2900 and 3300 euros per months, depending on the candidate's experience (this corresponds to a net pay of approximately 2150-2400 euros per month).

The position is funded by the French ANR project Mimétique on coarse graph theory and the successful candidate will have the opportunity to work with colleagues from LaBRI (Bordeaux), LIRIS (Lyon), IMAG (Montpellier), and LIS (Marseille) on topics of the project. The website of the project is not up yet, but the candidates can either refer to the list of topics included above or ask me by email for the 20p pdf of the whole proposal.

Applications consisting of
* a CV (containing background education and employment, complete list of publications available online, selected list of talks and attended events, supervision experience if any, community service if any)
* a Research statement, 1 or 2 pages (discussing strategy for choosing research projects, interest in one or more topics of the Mimétique project, adequation with current expertise, possibly ongoing projects that are relevant to the application)
* the names, affiliations and emails of two references
