One postdoctoral position in the scientific project "Between proof theory, reverse mathematics, and the model theory of arithmetic"

The project concerns various issues related to the model theory and proof theory of first- and second-order arithmetic. The three main research topics are:

  • Models of collection principles, in particular expansions of models that satisfy collection but not induction for a given class of formulas.
  • The first-order consequences of second-order statements (in particular combinatorial statements) over various base theories in second-order arithmetic.
  • The development of a theory of proof sizes and proof speedup for subtheories of arithmetic.

The candidate should have research experience (documented by publications or preprints) in at least one of the following areas of mathematical logic: nonstandard models of arithmetic, proof theory of arithmetic, reverse mathematics.

One postdoctoral research position in the scientific project "Infinity in reasoning about data and knowledge"

The project aims to bring together the paradigms of databases on one hand and knowledge representation and reasoning on the other hand, mainly in the area of query processing and reasoning. Eligible candidates should hold a PhD degree in computer science and have
an excellent background in one or more of the following fields:
● database theory
● knowledge representation and reasoning
● logic in computer science.

Application deadline: November 16, 2024
