PhD Students

I'm actively looking to recruit creative PhD candidates with good mathematical background, interested in some of the following areas: Possible backgrounds are an honor's or master's degree in physics, mathematics, computer sciences, engineering, or related fields. To get an idea of the current research in the above areas and the required skills, please have a look at the projects page, or the more introductory book and survey article recommendations.

The PhD will be awarded by the Australian National University, with NICTA possibly paying a top-up scholarship. The total value of scholarships is typically $20'000-$30'000 per year, plus fee waiver. The PhD program is 3-4 years.

Before you apply at the official ANU site, I recommend you first contact me by email marcus.hutter@anu.edu.au with subject line "PhD Candidate" and attach (1MB max)

 (i) detailed curriculum vitae,
 (ii) academic transcript,
 (iii) two or three references,
 (iv) letter of interest (1-2 pages),
 (v) links to publications and/or theses.

Note that scholarships for non-residents of Australia are very difficult to get, and you would typically need a couple of relevant and high quality publications in the area already, or excellent results from a top university Masters degree.
