Open Positions

PhD and Postdoctoral Researchers

I am always interested in collaborating with highly motivated students and researchers who are passionate about algebraic coding theory and its applications to quantum error-correcting codes and DNA coding. If your research interests align with these areas, I would be delighted to hear from you.

I am also interested in:

• Algebraic Geometry Codes
• Code-Based Cryptography

PhD Opportunities

I welcome applications from motivated students with a strong mathematical background and a genuine interest in algebraic coding theory and its applications.

Core requirements — applicants should have a solid foundation in:

• Abstract Algebra (Group Theory, Ring Theory, Module Theory and Field Theory)
• Linear Algebra

Beyond that, I'm always glad to hear from students already working in — or keen to learn — one or more of the following areas:

• Algebraic Geometry
• Algebraic Topology (Homology Theory)
• Combinatorics (Graph Theory)

Prior research experience is welcome but not required.

Postdoctoral Opportunities

I welcome inquiries from researchers with a strong publication record and demonstrated research potential. Applicants should have expertise in algebraic coding theory or one or more of the following related areas:

• Quantum Error-Correcting Codes
• Code-Based Cryptography
• Algebraic Geometry Codes

Researchers working in closely related areas are also encouraged to contact me.

How to Apply
