Postdoctoral position in cyrptography, Stockholm (Sweden), Deadline: 31 Aug 2010

The School of Computer Science and Communications (CSC) at the Royal
Institute of Technology (KTH), Stockholm, Sweden, is seeking a post-doctoral
researcher in Cryptography.

In the Theory Group of CSC we do research in topics such as complexity
theory and approximation algorithms, computer and network security,
cryptography, programming languages, and formal methods.

The post-doctoral research may be done on foundational topics, e.g.,
relating basic cryptographic notions, and/or more practically oriented
topics, e.g., improving the efficiency or proving the security of concrete
constructions. The successful candidate should have a PhD degree in a
subject relevant for the research, such as cryptography or related areas of
complexity theory.

The position is initially for one year. Applications should include CV, list
of publications, copies of PhD diploma and thesis (a URL may be provided to
the thesis), and names and contact details of at least two references, of
which at least one is not a former supervisor of the applicant. To receive
full consideration, the application should be received no later than August
31, 2010.
