Dear colleague,

I would be grateful if you could bring the attached advertisement
for PhD positions in theoretical Quantum Information and Quantum
Many-Body Physics at the University of Vienna to the attention of
suitable candidates.


Best wishes,
Norbert Schuch

================================================================

PhD positions are available in the Research Group "Quantum
Information and Quantum Many-Body Physics", led by Norbert Schuch,
at the University of Vienna.

Topics of interest cover the whole range from quantum information
and computation to quantum many-body physics, with a focus on tensor
networks and related methods.

Research topics covered in the group include:

* Theory of Tensor Networks, classification of phases
* Simulation methods for quantum many-body systems,
  Tensor Network algorithms
* Topological order, spin liquids
* Quantum Algorithms (in particular for NISQ devices
  and for the simulation of many-body problems)
* Entanglement Theory
* Mathematical structure of quantum many-body systems
* Quantum Complexity Theory

More information on the group and topics can be found at
https://schuch.univie.ac.at/

Successful candidates will be associated either with the Department
of Physics or the Department of Mathematics, depending on their
background and interests, and become members of the corresponding
doctoral schools (https://vds-physics.univie.ac.at/
and https://www.vsmath.at/).

Applications should be emailed to schuch-office.quantum at univie.ac.at,
Subject: "PhD Application", and contain a CV (including certificates &
grades from bachelor and master studies), a brief cover letter
(max. 1 page), explaining the motivation for joining the group,
and the contact data of two referees who can provide a letter of
recommendation upon request, preferably all in one PDF file.

Deadline for initial consideration is May 10th, 2021, but later
applications will be considered until the positions are filled.
