Position on open access

In combinatorics, journals with the good open access policies are the Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, Online Journal of Analytic Combinatorics, Contributions to Discrete Mathematics, Australasian Journal of Combinatorics, Discrete Analysis, Advances in Combinatorics, Combinatorial Theory, and Innovations in Graph Theory. Alas, often my papers eventually end up in journals with bad open access policies. The arXiv versions of all my papers, available here, reflect journal versions quite precisely, including theorem numbering.

Position on climate sustainability of my research

I am aware of and concerned with the carbon footprint of my research. I stopped flying at the beginning of 2019 (exception: Prague-London and back in August 2023). For the same reason, I do not invite people for talks or collaboration in cases that the travel would generate substantial greenhouse gas emissions (which is roughly equivalent to flying). This includes people with their own funds. That said, I am very much open to long-distance collaboration and dissemination, but only virtually. Also, this position has no implications for students or postdocs working on grants where I am the principal investigator (other than I encourage them to be climate conscious), and I strictly do not take the nationality, country of origin or country of residence into considerations when serving on a hiring committee or in any similar capacity.
