News

• I will most likely soon announce an opening for a PhD student in SAT solving that will look pretty much identical to this (no longer open) PhD position within the AI-Math Graduate School that is a part of the Wallenberg Artificial Intelligence, Autonomous Systems and Software Program (WASP). Stay tuned for more details…
• I have been elected member of the Young Academy of Sweden.
• I will spend most of the autumn at the Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing at UC Berkeley taking part in the semester program Lower Bounds in Computational Complexity.
• I am on the program committees for the conferences AAAI '19 and STACS '19.

Professional activities

I am an Associate Professor in the Theoretical Computer Science Group at the School of Electrical Enginering and Computer Science (EECS) at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden.

During the academic years 2008-09 and 2009-10, I was a postdoc at the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology hosted by Madhu Sudan.

Prior to that I was a PhD student of Johan Håstad in the Theory Group at KTH, where I defended my PhD thesis in May 2008. For those who would prefer not to read the whole thesis there are instead [in Swedish only] a short popular science summary and a slightly longer popular science overview of my PhD project research.
