Jan Hladky

I am a researcher at the Institute of Mathematics of the Czech Academy of Sciences. Since September 1, 2016 I have been on unpaid leave from the Institute of Mathematics, and currently work on the project Extremal graph theory and applications at the Institute of Computer Science of the Czech Academy of Sciences.

Please contact me or Diana Piguet who is the principal investigator if you are interested in collaboration. In particular, we are looking for students at Czech universities who would be interested in doing a research project (possibly leading to a thesis) with the team members. Please contact us also if you are interested in giving a seminar talk.

I am interested in discrete mathematical structures, and graphs in particular. Most of my work has been in extremal graph theory. I also work on the recently emerged theory of graph limits, and on the links this theory provides to fields such as real analysis and probability theory.

From January 2017 I will be at the Institute for Geometry at TU Dresden, hosted by Andreas Thom, supported by the Humboldt Foundation.

Events

Zdenek Dvorak and I organized in August 2016 the first edition of what we hope to become a tradition of biennial Prague Schools on Discrete Mathematics. More can be found here.

I organised (with Artur Czumaj an Diana Piguet) Workshop on Extremal and Probabilistic Combinatorics in July 2010 in England.

I organised (with Marek Krcal Bernard Lidicky, and Zuzana Safernova) Spring Schools in Combinatorics 2007 and 2008 in Czech Republic.
