Postdoc position in Graph Homomorphism Counting at IT University of Copenhagen

The Algorithms group at the IT University of Copenhagen welcomes applications for a post-doc position with focus on mathematical and algorithmic properties of graph homomorphisms. The position is funded by the ERC Starting Grant project "Counting (with) homomorphisms" (COUNTHOM) led by Radu Curticapean. The starting date is from 1st of March 2025.

The IT University's vision is to create and share knowledge that is profound and leads to groundbreaking information technology and services for the benefit of humanity. The Computer Science Department seeks to conduct research and education that are both foundational and have impact on industry and society.

Project
The ERC Starting Grant project "Counting (with) homomorphisms" (COUNTHOM) is funded by the European Research council and investigates exciting connections between combinatorial problems: It turns out that fundamental computational problems that have previously been studied independently can be viewed as one and the same problem from the right perspective This generalizing perspective is made possible by so-called homomorphisms, which are structure-preserving mappings. In this project, we use homomorphisms to gain a deeper understanding and thereby develop optimal algorithms for such computational problems.

The ideal candidate

  • Has a solid background in the mathematical and algorithmic theory of graph homomorphisms and a general interest in graph theory, algorithms and complexity.
