Job Description
Missions
The postdoctoral researcher will investigate the computational complexity of decision problems in fragments of first-order logic over various fields, with a focus on determining the existence of exact and approximate solutions to systems of polynomial equations and inequalities. Some applications to the complexity of problems for stochastic games are also expected.
Activity
The postdoctoral researcher will:
* Develop algorithms to solve symbolic computation problems (real and algebraically closed fields).
* Position these problems within algorithmic complexity theory.
* Collaborate with project teams to apply these results to automated verification and game theory.
* Write research papers and present findings at conferences.
Your Profil
Skills
* PhD in mathematics or theoretical computer science, with expertise in complexity, symbolic computation, or computational algebra.
* Strong knowledge of real/algebraically closed fields theory, Boolean complexity, arithmetic circuits, and/or effective algebra.
* Fluent in English (written and oral) and ability to work in multidisciplinary teams.
Your Work Environment
The post-doc will work in the LAMA team at University Savoie Mont Blanc. He or she will be supervised locally by Sébastien Tavenas. The position is supported by a Synergy ERC project VePass lead by Mahsa Shirmohammadi (Paris), Vincent Cheval (Oxford), Véronique Cortier (Nancy), and Sébastien Tavenas (Chambéry).
The start date is flexible depending on your availability (between October 2026 and January 2027, with the contract beginning on the first of the month).
