Postdoctoral fellowship at Paris School of Economics for 1 year or 4th-year PHD in economics or computer science
The positions are financed by the project NET of ANR (Agence Nationale de Recherche). The aim of this project is to explore information and communication in large networks. The project is motivated by the radical changes in communication that we have been experiencing over the past fifteen years through the huge development of communication tools, amongst which high-capacity computers and the Internet technology play a crucial role. The new environment, characterized by multilateral relationships on a high scale that are well described by `large networks', has opened up new forms of competition, cooperation, and power.
The successful applicants will work on subjects related to the project, for example on
(1) The analysis of systems that are used to organize, process, aggregate and filter information on the Internet. Such systems may be centralized, as is the case with search engines' ranking systems (PageRank being the most famous example), or decentralized (e.g forums of opinions or communities of interest).
(2) Information transmission and competition in the banking sector, modeling the multilateral inter-bank network.
