<br>
Two 2-year full-time postdoc positions are available in the G2OAT<br>
research group at the Czech Technical University in Prague (CTU),<br>
Czech Republic with preferred starting date January 2022 (slightly<br>
negotiable). The research interests of the group range from graph<br>
algorithms, through classical and parameterized complexity and
integer<br>
linear programming to combinatorial games. The prospective mentors
of<br>
the positions are Ondřej Suchý and Dušan Knop.<br>
<br>
The research group Graphs, Games, Optimization, Algorithms and<br>
Theoretical Computer Science (G2OAT) is a part of the Department
of<br>
Theoretical Computer Science at the Faculty of Information
Technology<br>
at CTU. The department also includes Stringology and Arborology<br>
research groups. The G2OAT research group is rather small,
comprising<br>
1 associate professor, 2 assistant professors, 2 postdocs and 4
Ph.D.<br>
students. A successful candidate will work at CTU's main campus
which<br>
features a range of amenities such as the National Technical
Library,<br>
and a laid-back atmosphere with cafes and other social hangout
places.<br>
<br>
Successful candidates will get a monthly salary of 65 thousand CZK<br>
(about 2500 EUR) (the Czech Republic cost of living is at 68% of
the<br>
US price level by OECD statistics). There are no teaching duties<br>
associated with this position. These positions are institutionally<br>
funded, i.e., funded by the Czech Technical University in Prague.<br>
<br>
We are seeking highly motivated individuals holding a PhD in
computer<br>
science, discrete mathematics, or related areas. The ideal
candidate<br>
is familiar with several of the following areas: Parameterized<br>
complexity, integer linear programming, structural graph theory,
game<br>
theory, computational social choice. Experience in optimization
and in<br>
particular approximation algorithms or hardness of approximation
is<br>
appreciated but not required. The candidate's high scientific<br>
potential should be witnessed by publications in the area of<br>
algorithms or discrete math in impacted journals and in
proceedings of<br>
highly ranked international conferences.<br>
<br>
The successful candidate must:<br>
<br>
* be a researcher who has received a PhD or its equivalent within
the<br>
last 7 years or be close to receive one,<br>
* have a strong publication record (with at least two publications
in<br>
a journal with IF), and<br>
* be fluent in English (both written and spoken), prior knowledge
of<br>
Czech is not required.<br>
