[Job-offers-cs] Post-doc position in Geometric Graph Theory in Grenoble (France)

[Pekka Orponen]

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 at 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
