Postdoctoral Researcher Position in the RTG Facets of Complexity

Starting date: between 1st of April 2018 and 1st of September 2018

We will start reviewing applications after February 10th.
The salary for this position on the official German TV-L Berliner Hochschulen salary scale (100% TVL 13) depends on age, marital status, children, etc.

The scientific program includes

• Complexity of algorithms
• Complexity of combinatorial structures
• Complexity of geometric structures
• Complexity of graphs and networks

We look in particular for candidates who can connect several of these areas, and who can combine the combinatorial, descriptional, and the algorithmic aspects of complexity.

The program is a joint initiative of scientists at the three major Berlin universities

• Freie Universität Berlin (FU)
