Welcome Colin Geniet, a new member of the IBS Discrete Mathematics Group
The IBS discrete mathematics group welcomes Dr. Colin Geniet, a new research fellow at the IBS Discrete Mathematics Group from September 1, 2024. He received his Ph.D. from ENS de Lyon under the supervision of Prof. Stéphan Thomassé. He is interested in graphs in relation with logic and algorithmic, and more specifically structural graph theory, graph parameters, finite model theory, and parameterized complexity.
