<p>Dear colleagues,</p>
<p>I am seeking candidates for a 3-year postdoc in algorithms and
data structures in the Department of Computer Science at the
University of Liverpool.<br>
<br>
The postdoc is funded by the EPSRC project “Computing over
Compressed Graph-Structured Data”, led by Sebastian Wild
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.wild-inter.net/">https://www.wild-inter.net/</a>).<br>
The goal of the project is to develop foundations for new
space-efficient (succinct / compressed) data structures that allow
to store “structure data” (trees, graphs, etc.; labeled and
unlabeled) in “small space” (ideally close to an
information-theory lower bound), while supporting efficient
queries on the data. <br>
<br>
Potential research areas for this post include data structures,
compression methods, graph theory, and analysis of algorithms; the
project is open to a range of adjacent topics. If you are unsure
whether your research interests fit in or have any other
questions, please drop me a line (<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:sebastian.wild@liverpool.ac.uk">sebastian.wild@liverpool.ac.uk</a>).<br>
<br>
The position is for 3 years; the starting date is flexible.<br>

<p>PS: I am also recruiting for a fully-funded PhD position (UK
Home student fees only). The position is for 3.5 years and the
topic is in the general area of algorithms and data structures.
