PhD position in dependence logic at University of Helsinki

Deadline: Sunday 9 August 2020

The Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Helsinki (Finland) invites applications for a four-year doctoral student position in a research project on “Dependence logic and its applications in no-go paradoxes in sciences” funded by Academy of Finland. This multidisciplinary project aims to study open problems in dependence logic (including the axiomatization problem, expressivity, etc.) and to investigate applications of dependence logic and team semantics in no-go paradoxes in social choice, quantum foundations and database theory.

The position will start as soon as possible. Applicants are expected to hold a Master’s degree in mathematics, computer science, philosophy or some other relevant subject by the time of the start date. An ideal candidate should have a strong background in mathematical logic, and a keen interest in interdisciplinary research.
