Postdoctoral position in mathematics at the University of Iceland

Uncategorized /

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position at the University of Iceland financed by The Icelandic Research Fund. The research project is called: „Scaling limits of random enriched trees“ and is in the field of probabilistic combinatorics. The project includes studying scaling limits of random graphs, statistical mechanical models on random planar maps and related […]
