The Institute of Philosophy of the Czech Academy of Sciences welcomes
applications for two full-time postdoc positions. The two postdocs
will work within a project led by Ansten Klev on type theory and
the philosophy of mathematics. The main aim of the project is to develop a
philosophy of mathematics for Martin-Löf type theory. The postdocs will
pursue research programmes of their own that in some way contribute to this
overall aim.

Both positions last for 30 months and will start in July 2023.

Given the aims of the project, the candidate should have an interest in
exploring philosophical aspects of Martin-Löf type theory. Previous
familiarity with this or a related system, such as homotopy type theory or
the calculus of constructions, is an advantage, but not a prerequisite for
applying.

A detailed description of the project is available upon request from Ansten
Klev, who will also attend to any questions applicants may have:
klev at flu.cas.cz.

The deadline for applying is April 16. Applications should be sent to
Kateřina Krusová, krusova at flu.cas.cz, including a copy to Ansten Klev at
the above address. The application should consist of a CV and a brief (1-2
pages) description of the research the applicant plans to carry out while
in Prague.

The monthly gross salary of CZK 43 200 is well above the current Czech
average. Year-end bonus and meal vouchers come in addition. The project
also provides money for travel and for inviting guest speakers.

The Czech Academy of Sciences is a research institution organized into
institutes. The Institute of Philosophy is in turn organized into
departments. The postdocs will be affiliated with the Department of Logic.
