News

• I am looking for postdocs and PhD students both on the theoretical side in computational complexity theory and on the applied side in SAT solving and combinatorial optimization more broadly. Announcements have been a bit delayed in connection with my move south to Copenhagen, but should hopefully be out during November. The deadlines will likely be in mid-to-late January.
• I have moved to the Department of Computer Science at the University of Copenhagen, but still retain a part-time affiliation with KTH.
• My (former) PhD student Susanna F. de Rezende has received the Stockholm Mathematics Centre Prize for Excellent Doctoral Dissertation 2018/2019. Congratulations, Susanna!
• I am on the program committees for the conferences AAAI '20, ICALP '20, and SAT '20.

Professional activities

I am an Associate Professor at the Department of Computer Science at the University of Copenhagen, Denmark, but still retain a part-time affiliation with the School of Electrical Enginering and Computer Science (EECS) at KTH Royal Institute of Technology.

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.
