Postdoc positions in TCS, Copenhagen (Denmark)

Deadline: Monday 10 February 2020

The Department of Computer Science (DIKU) at the University of Copenhagen invites applications for postdoc positions in theoretical computer science. The postdoctoral researchers will be working in the research group of Jakob Nordstrom (http://www.csc.kth.se/~jakobn/), which is currently in transition from KTH to a combined location at the University of Copenhagen and Lund University on either side of the Oresund bridge.

Much of the research in the group revolves about gaining a better theoretical understanding of powerful algorithmic paradigms such as, e.g., SAT solving, Groebner basis computations, integer linear programming, and/or semidefinite programming. This leads to classic questions in computational complexity theory — though often with new, interesting twists — but can also involve work on designing new algorithms that can exploit the power of such paradigms in practice. Our research has revealed deep, and sometimes surprising, connections to other topics such as, e.g., circuit complexity, communication complexity, and hardness of approximation, and therefore researchers in these or other related areas are more than welcome to apply.

These postdoc positions are full-time employed positions for one year with a possible (and expected) one-year extension. The expected starting date is September 2020, although this is to some extent negotiable.
