[Agda] Three Post-doc positions in RECIPROG project (located in France -- Lyon, Nantes and Paris)

[Alexis Saurin]

This is an announcement for three one-year postdoctoral positions funded 
by the ANR ReCiProg - Reasoning on Circular proofs for Programming, to 
be hosted in Lyon (LIP), Nantes (LS2N, Gallinette) and Paris (IRIF, 
PPS).

We seek strong candidates holding a PhD in Computer Science or 
Mathematics, and with expertise in one or several of the following 
areas:

  	*
Proof theory
  	*
Curry-Howard correspondence
  	*
Logics with fixed points
  	*
Coinductive reasoning
  	*
Proof assistants (formalization skills or development experience)
  	*
Type theory
  	*
Category theory
  	*
Automated deduction
  	*
Automata theory

In relation with the above topics, an experience in one or several of 
the following topics will be particularly appreciated: fixed-points and 
circular proofs, the Coq proof assistant, inductive and coinductive 
types, guarded recursion, coalgebras, inductive and coinductive theorem 
proving, categorical logic, infinitary term rewriting and infinitary 
lambda-calculi.

The successful candidate will be employed in one of the following French 
research lab, depending on her/his specific profile and scientific 
project:

- LIP (Plume Team), Lyon (local coordinator: Denis Kuperberg)
- LS2N (Gallinette Team), Nantes (local coordinator: Guilhem Jaber)
- IRIF (PPS & Picube Team), Paris (local coordinator: Alexis Saurin)

Application process:

  	*
Each potential candidate is advised to contact the project coordinator 
and the local coordinators of interest as soon as possible to express 
her/his intent to submit an application.
  	*
Deadline for applications is on May 15th, for a starting date between 
September 1st 2024 and December 31st 2024, to be negotiated.
  	*
Candidates should send their application to Alexis Saurin (alexis dot 
saurin at irif dot fr) with a subject containing "[RECIPROG post-doc 
application]".
  	*
The application should contain (i) a CV, (ii) a brief research statement 
(1-2 pages) & (iii) at least two contacts of reference persons (or 
reference letters if available) and it should indicate the site(s) of 
interest for the application.
  	*
The salary will depend on the successful candidate's prior research 
experience and of hiring site, with a guaranteed minimum of 2300 
EUR/month before taxes.
  	*
Each position is for a one-year post-doc.

Project summary:

RECIPROG is an ANR collaborative project (aka. PRC) running till the end 
of 2025 involving french teams in Lyon, Marseille, Nantes and Marseille, 
which aims at extending the proofs-as-programs correspondence (aka 
Curry-Howard correspondence) to recursive programs and circular proofs 
for logics and type systems using induction and coinduction. The project 
will contribute both to the necessary theoretical foundations of 
circular proofs and to the software development allowing to enhance the 
use of coinductive types and coinductive reasoning in the Coq proof 
assistant, as well as software verification techniques using circular 
tools.

  	*
Interested candidates may contact the project coordinator (Alexis 
Saurin) as well as the local coordinators (Guilhem Jaber, Denis 
Kuperberg, Luigi Santocanale & Alexis Saurin) to enquire about more 
specific research directions and the adequacy of their research profile.
  	* Cross-site projects involving members of the project from different 
labs are welcome.
  	* There is a one-year funding for each of the three sites of Lyon, 
Nantes and Paris.
