Postdoctoral and Ph.D positions in Algorithmics at Max-Planck Institute for Informatics, Saarbruecken (Germany)

The Max Planck Institute for Informatics seeks several Postdocs for the Algorithms and Complexity Department directed by Kurt Mehlhorn. We are looking for applicants from all areas of algorithmics, including related areas like computer algebra, complexity theory and discrete mathematics. We are also explicitly looking for people interested in algorithm engineering and the design and implementation of algorithm libraries.

The institute is also seeking Ph.D students for the same group, to carry out theoretical work in the areas of algorithmic game theory, online algorithms, and approximation algorithms.
