The Opportunity The Research Fellow will contribute to the School's research efforts in combinatorics.
This role involves working on a project concerning fractional edge decompositions of graphs, addressing well-studied open problems, and exploring related variants and special cases.
The project is led by Daniel Horsley (Monash University), Darryn Bryant, Barbara Maenhaut (University of Queensland), and Peter Dukes (University of Victoria).
Key Responsibilities: Conduct independent and collaborative research in edge decomposition of graphs, fractional structures in graphs Work on well-studied open problems, investigate variants or special cases, and explore new related research directions Contribute to the publication of research findings in peer-reviewed journals and conference proceedings Participate in seminars, workshops, and conferences related to combinatorics and graph theory The successful candidate will hold a PhD in Mathematics or a closely related discipline, with a strong background in edge decomposition of graphs or fractional structures in graphs.
You will have the ability to solve complex mathematical problems.
If you are excited about contributing to cutting-edge research on fractional edge decompositions of graphs and believe you have the skills and passion to thrive in this collaborative rich environment, then we would very much like to hear from you.
