Received the European Prize in Combinatorics in 2023 for his 3-dimensional Kuratowski-type theorems.
Research Experience
Currently a professor at the Discrete Structures group at TU Freiberg, leading the ProofBench project which develops a benchmark suite for evaluating AI theorem provers. Has supervised multiple postdoctoral researchers and interns.
Background
Research interests include combinatorics in 3 dimensions, graph minors and connectivity, matroids, and infinite graphs. Particularly focused on extending the fundamental methods from Structural Graph Theory to study 2-dimensional simplicial complexes.
Miscellany
Hiring a 3-year Postdoctoral Researcher to take a leading role in large-scale grant applications, drive the project scientifically, build collaborations, and engage with the Lean formalisation ecosystem.
