Within the realm of the SoS project, we offer a one-year postdoctoral position, to work with Monique Teillaud, Vincent Despré, and Sylvain Lazard at Inria, Loria, in Nancy. (On a related note, within the same project SoS, our partners in Marne-la-Vallée and Luxembourg also have postdoctoral positions available; see here and here.)
Candidates in fields of mathematics (geometry, topology) or computer science (discrete and computational geometry and topology) are sought. The unifying theme of the project is surfaces and structures on them, from a combinatorial and/or algorithmic perspective, broadly understood. For more details on the SoS project, see the precise topics on the SoS project webpage.
Further collaborations with our other partners of this project, in Marne-la-Vallée (Éric Colin de Verdière, Alfredo Hubard, Lionel Pournin) and Luxembourg (Hugo Parlier, Jean-Marc Schlenker) will be highly encouraged and the successful candidate will be given travel funds for regular visits at the partner institutions.
Applications received before January 15th, 2019 are ensured to receive full consideration but the postdoc position will be open until a suitable candidate is found. The date of the beginning of the contract is highly flexible, between a few months from now and March 2021.
Salary: 2133 € or slightly above depending on experience, including health insurance, excluding income taxes.
The candidate must have completed their PhD before starting the contract. Interested candidates should contact Monique Teillaud by email and provide following information:
