Optimization
Date: 	Wed, 29 Sep 2021 18:45:08 +0200
From: 	Daniel Dadush <D.N.Dadush at cwi.nl>
To: 	DMANET at zpr.uni-koeln.de



Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI)
Amsterdam, The Netherlands
A 2-year postdoctoral position is available in the Networks & 
Optimization research group in the area of discrete and continuous 
optimization under the supervision of Daniel Dadush.

The research will be supported by the ERC grant "Towards a Quantitative 
Theory of Integer Programming". A principal goal of this project is to 
develop a theory capable of explaining the performance of the many 
techniques used to solve integer programs, such branch & bound, cutting 
planes, fast LP solving and rounding heuristics. Complementary to this 
goal, the project aims to make progress on related fundamental open 
problems in the context of LP, IP and discrepancy theory. For more 
information, please visit the project website: 
https://homepages.cwi.nl/~dadush/erc/erc.html>The candidate will be 
expected to help advance the goals of the project together with their 
own personal research agenda.

The candidate should have a strong background in at least one of the 
following areas: discrete / continuous optimization, high dimensional 
geometry and probability, approximation algorithms or fixed parameter 
tractability. Research experience within the subject areas of integer 
programming, linear programming or discrepancy theory is a plus.

Applications should be submitted by *October 31st* via the following link:

https://www.cwi.nl/jobs/vacancies/894611 (click "apply" on the 
bottom-right of the page)

All applications should include:

- a motivation letter;
- a curriculum vitae with a list of publications, awards and 
presentations at conferences / workshops / seminars;
- A concise research statement, summarizing the applicants past research 
as well as future research goals;
- The contact information of two potential references

The preferred starting timeframe would be Spring 2022, but Fall 2022 may 
also be possible.

For additional information (including salary information), please visit 
the vacancy website listed above.
