Quantiki

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position at the Centre for Quantum Computer Science, University of Latvia, lead by prof. Andris Ambainis. The Centre is among the strongest European research groups in quantum algorithms and currently consists of 5 faculty members and 14 postdocs and graduate students.

Research at the Centre is focused on quantum algorithms and quantum complexity theory, as well as related questions in classical computer science.

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research position with a possibility for extension, in the field of theory of quantum computations and quantum algorithms. The position will be held at Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology (Skoltech), Moscow, Russia. The start date is flexible.
The successful applicant will work in the research group led by Prof Jacob Biamonte in the area of quantum computations and quantum networks, with a focus on quantum enhanced algorithms and error mitigation on experimental devices.

A postdoc position (3 years) is available in the field of quantum information and computation in the group led by Hans Briegel at the University of Innsbruck.

Research in our group covers a range of topics including theory and applications of measurement-based quantum computation, quantum error correction, quantum communication, quantum machine learning, and the role of artificial intelligence in physics research.

A postdoctoral position is available in the group of Quantum Information Theory at KAIST. The successful candidates will work in the research group led by Joonwoo Bae, in topics of fundamental aspects of quantum information theory and their applications to communication and computation. The topics include quantum protocols, entanglement theory, quantum channels, and quantum algorithms. The expected start date is October 2020 or later. The position is initially given for 1+1 years, and can be extended depending on the evaluation of the research project (funded by Samsung).

Quantum photonic networks enable powerful technologies like quantum computing, unprecedented sensing capability, and guaranteed secure communication, operating at high bandwidth and in ambient conditions. This PhD project, in the Southampton group of Dr Patrick M Ledingham, concerns the development of a quantum optical memory – a device that stores and recalls on-demand quantum photonic states – to allow for synchronisation capability that will be crucial to scale up a future quantum photonic network.
