Subject: [DMANET] PostDoc position on Steiner-type Problems at Uni 
Osnabrueck, Germany
Date: Fri, 26 Jul 2019 10:10:38 +0200
From: Markus Chimani <markus.chimani at uni-osnabrueck.de>
To: dmanet at zpr.uni-koeln.de

We are offering a PostDoc position (2 years, 100% TV-L 13, starting 
October 1st!) at the beautiful city of Osnabrück, Germany.

The applicant (you?) will become part of the Theoretical Computer 
Science group, headed by Prof. Markus Chimani. You will work together 
with further research groups in mathematics (Discrete Maths, Algebra, 
Stochastics) and computer science (Combinatorial Optimization, 
Distributed Systems). The topic of this joint research is, in a broad 
sense, Steiner problems (like Steiner trees, Steiner networks, Spanners, 
etc.). You will also be invovled in writing related funding applications 
(which may lead to further extensions beyond the two years).

Requirements:
*) outstanding PhD in Computer Science or Mathematics (in particular 
Theoretical Computer Science, Discrete Mathematics, or Combinatorial 
Optimization)
*) profound knowledge in graph theory/problems/algorithms, in particular 
Steiner- or related network, routing, or subgraph problems
*) knowledge in Theoretical Computer Science, Discrete Maths, 
Combinatorial Optimization (perhaps even also in Stochastics and 
Distributed Systems?)
*) independent research experience in the above topics, witnessed by 
scientific publications at international conferences or journals

Ideally, you have:
*) experience with university teaching
*) experience with cooperations between practical CS, theoretical CS and
maths

We offer:
*) a welcoming research environment in the context of multiple 
cooperating research groups of different backgrounds
*) continuous scientific support
*) flexible working hours and very good technical infrastructure

Your application (a *single* PDF file, including the typical documents) 
should be sent to chimani at uos.de. Deadline: 16.8.2019.

[Disclaimer: I'm on holidays till August 5th. Thus please allow for a
24-48h time window for my email answers.]
