The positions are in the group of Dimitris G. Angelakis (www.dimitrisangelakis.org). We are looking for highly motivated candidates with a strong research background and a PhD in theoretical quantum optics/physics and/or quantum information and/or quantum many-body physics/quantum condensed matter.
There are two PhD positions currently advertised in the Insititute for Informatics at the University of Bergen, Bergen, Norway. These positions are advertised across disciplines in computer science so if you want to apply to do a PhD on the mathematical theory of quantum information, quantum machine learning, quantum computing, and/or quantum networks, or related topics, then please mention that you would like to work with Professor Matthew G. Parker.
For more questions regarding possible research topics then please feel free email him at:
Open permanent position at Telecom ParisTech
Associate Professor on Quantum Information and Post Quantum Cryptography
The Quantum Information and Applications (IQA) group of Telecom Paristech is conducting a research activity centered on quantum information, quantum communication and cryptography. This research combines theoretical work on quantum information, communication and quantum cryptographic protocols with the development of an experimental platform allowing experimental demonstrations of quantum communication protocols.
Applications are invited for the above post to work with Professor Gerardo Adesso on an ERC Starting Grant project entitled “Genuine quantumness in cooperative phenomena” funded by the European Research Council. The principal goal of the project is to analyse and challenge the quantum-classical border from a jointly fundamental and applicative viewpoint. The project is expected to deliver novel tools for the characterisation of quantumness in composite systems and to develop novel platforms for its practical utilisation in quantum technology applications.
The school "Nanotechnology meets Quantum Information (NanoQI)" provides a broad overview of different implementations of quantum information processing and quantum technologies. The school is aimed at PhD students and young postdocs interested in quantum information processing and quantum technologies.
This position is advertised across specialisations, and includes the following possible research topics:
1. Quantum information theory.
2. Quantum neural networks and quantum learning algorithms.
3. Quantum computation.
4. Graph theoretic measures applied to quantum information processing, non-contextuality and generalised physical theories, and to quantum information capacities.
5. Quantum contextuality, quantum entanglement, Bell inequalities and related topics.
6. Quantum cryptography.
These positions are advertised across specialisations, and include the following possible research topics:
The Schmid College of Science and Technology at Chapman University is advertising teaching/research postdoctoral fellowships (see the advert below). The teaching portion is in our new Grand Challenges Initiative. The research component can be in any group within Schmid College, which includes the Institute for Quantum Studies. The institute is lef by Yakir Aharonov and Jeff Tollaksen, and includes faculty members Matt Leifer and Justin Dressel.
Quantum information theory is at the intersection of physics, computer science and mathematics. While its potential is still in the way of being developed, what we already know suggests that it may have a dramatic impact on everyday technologies. Given the completely new logic underlying a quantum computer, new mathematical and computer science tools are required to optimize its architecture and then fully exploit its computational potential.
Applications are invited for a Government of Ireland Postdoctoral Fellowship in Quantum Computation (Theory) at the National University of Ireland, Galway.
In the first instance, please contact soon Dr. M. Mc Gettrick [michael.mcgettrick@nuigalway.ie] for initial discussions on the research programme.
