The aim of the BMFTR research project “Q-Cyber” is to explore new approaches to networked multi-party quantum communication applications and to evaluate their practical feasibility and security. We will implement and investigate a range of advanced multipartite quantum communication protocols. We will develop suitable hardware solutions for the use of multipartite entangled quantum states as a fundamental resource in future quantum networks.

The School of Applied Mathematics (MIEM, HSE University), Moscow, Russia, invites applications for the postdoctoral position in mathematical methods for quantum Information and quantum Control. The position involves working under the direct supervision of Professor Elena R. Loubenets

Research on quantum error correction (QEC) or quantum error mitigation (QEM),
including subjects such as:

• topological codes, QLDPC codes, decoding, magic state generation,
• zero-noise extrapolation, probabilistic error cancellation, virtual distillation,
• hybrid QEC+QEM approaches

Each position is for an interdisciplinary project at the intersection of quantum communication, data analysis, and artificial intelligence. It aims to determine both the current capacity to preserve the quantum features of the transferred states and to investigate strategies, supported by machine learning techniques, to minimize the detrimental effects of the optical fiber transmission on entangled states. The principal investigator of the project is Prof.

Opportunity: CIRTA – Quantum Computing (PhD & Postdoc) 🇨🇦

The Canada Impact+ Research Training Awards (CIRTA) are a new Tri-Agency initiative to recruit outstanding international PhD students and postdoctoral researchers to Canada.

Funding
• PhD: $40,000/year for 3 years
• Postdoc: $70,000/year for 2 years

We are inviting Expressions of Interest for potential internal nomination to CIRTA in the following research areas:
• Quantum algorithms
• Quantum learning
• Quantum complexity
• Quantum error correction

The position is for a research project to develop a certifiable security hierarchy for Quantum Random Number Generators (QRNGs), enabling quantum randomness technologies to be classified and assessed against clearly defined, verifiable security levels. By grounding the hierarchy in rigorous theoretical models and supporting it with practical validation methodologies, the project aims to provide a robust framework for the trustworthy deployment of QRNGs in security-critical applications.
