Fonction : Post-Doctorant

Contexte et atouts du poste

  • The selected candidate will do her/his research at the OURAGAN team which is a joint team
    of Inria Paris and IMJ-PRG Sorbonne Université. She/he will be located at Sorbonne Université.
  • The position is funded by the ANR JCJC program
    GALOP (Games through the lens of ALgebra and OPtimization)

Mission confiée

Traditional techniques in algorithms, combinatorics, and discrete mathematics usually treat/compute with linear objects and quantities. In recent years, there have been efforts to extend the range of our techniques using tools from computational algebra and high dimensional geometry to handle nonlinear objects. The main challenge is to provide solid mathematical and algorithmic foundations, and, if possible, efficient implementations for computations with curved objects.

Our goal it to develop algorithms and implementations for solving (and analyzing) polynomials systems of equations, by exploiting the structure and the geometry of the input equations. We also aim at efficient algorithms for basic geometric operations with curves and surfaces.

Principales activités

The successful candidate will work on the following topics:
- Novel algorithms (exact and symbolic-numeric) for solving polynomial systems, that  exploit the structure, for example multi-homogeneity, sparsity, symmetry, properties of determinantal varieties.
- Algorithms for geometric operations with curves and surfaces (in 3D).

 

Interested candidates should contact Elias Tsigaridas (elias.tsigaridas@inria.fr) for additional information.

Compétences

Candidates should have a PhD in mathematics, computer science or a related area; expertise in 
computational algebra and/or geometry is highly desirable.
