Currently, DIMAG consists of researchers from various countries and the work is done in English. DIMAG is co-located with the IBS Extremal Combinatorics and Probability Group (ECOPRO).
Successful candidates for this position are expected to have research experience in Discrete Mathematics, in particular in Structural Graph theory, Combinatorial Optimization, Matroid Theory, and Algorithms, for 10 years or more after their Ph.D.’s.
The appointment is initially for two years and can be extended further after reviews of the research performance until the group’s closure or the retirement age.
The starting annual salary is no less than KRW 96,000,000, if the successful candidate has 10 years or more research experience after Ph.D.’s.
The expected appointment date is June 1, 2025, and it can be adjusted to earlier or later, but no later than September 1, 2025. This is purely research position and will have no teaching duties.
A complete application packet should include:
• AMS standard cover sheet (preferred) or cover letter (PDF format)
• Curriculum vitae, including a list of publications and preprints (PDF format)
• Research statement (PDF format)
• Consent to Collection and Use of Personal Information & Application for the IBS (PDF file)
For full consideration, applicants should email all the items to dimag@ibs.re.kr by August 19, 2024, 18:00 KST.
DIMAG encourages applications from individuals of diverse backgrounds.
Suggested E-mail subject from applicants: [DIMAG – name]
e.g., [DIMAG – PAUL ERDOS]
On July 14, 2024, Two of our former members, Dong Yeap Kang (강동엽) and Abhishek Methuku, and their collaborators (Tom Kelly, Daniela Kühn, and Deryk Osthus) received the 2024 Frontiers of Science Award (FSA) at the International Congress for Basic Science held in Beijing from July 14 to July 26, 2024, for their paper on the proof of Erdős-Faber-Lovász conjecture published in Annals of Mathematics. Dong Yeap Kang and Abhishek Methuku are former members of the IBS Discrete Mathematics Group. Congratulations!
More than 100 students attended the 2024 Summer School on Combinatorics and Algorithms from July 22 to 26, 2024. Chien-Chung Huang from ENS Paris and Sebastian Wiederrecht from the IBS Discrete Mathematics Group gave lectures. This event was organized by Jungho Ahn (KIAS), Eunjung Kim (KAIST), Eunjin Oh (POSTECH), and Sang-il Oum (IBS Discrete Mathematics Group / KAIST) and sponsored by the IBS Discrete Mathematics Group, KAIST, and POSTECH.
The IBS discrete mathematics group welcomes Dr. Bjarne Schülke, a new research fellow at the IBS Extremal Combinatorics and Probability Group starting July 1, 2024.
Dr. Schülke received his Ph.D. from the University of Hamburg in 2021 under the supervision of Christian Reiher and Mathias Schacht. Before joining the IBS Extremal Combinatorics and Probability Group, he was a Harry Bateman Instructor in Mathematics at Caltech, mentored by David Conlon.
He has won the IBS Young Scientist Fellowship. The title of his YSF project is “Variants of the Hypergraph Turán Problem and Extremal Set Theory.”
Welcome!
