Two postdoctoral positions (Algorithmic Game Theory), Aarhus (Denmark), Deadline: 1 Mar 2007

Two postdoctoral positions within algorithmic game theory are available at
the Department of Computer Science, University of Aarhus, Denmark.

The positions are funded by a grant from the Carlsberg Foundation for
establishing a Center for Algorithmic Game theory. The successful
candidates should expand and broaden the present competences within the
area at the department as represented by Peter Bro Miltersen, Jesper Buus
Nielsen and Ivan Damgaard.

We look for candidates with interests within algorithmic game theory in a
broad sense of the word, including candidates interested in:

- Algorithmic mechanism design
- Auctions for digital goods and combinatorial auctions
- Game-theoretic aspects of networks and routing
- Rational cryptography
- Equilibrium computation and computational game theory
- Game-theoretic aspects of multi-agent systems and artificial
  intelligence

The positions are for one year with possibility of extension. The default
starting date is August 2007.

To apply, please send a letter of interest with a research statement, your
CV, and at least three names of references for recommendations by email to
Peter Bro Miltersen (bromille@daimi.au.dk). To be assured of full
consideration, all material must arrive by March 1, 2007. Applications
will be considered until the positions are filled.
