Postdoctoral position in quantum information and simulation

We are currently offering a postdoctoral position to a highly motivated
and well-qualified researcher who intends to enhance his or her career in
the fields of quantum information theory and the theory of quantum
simulations, funded by the new H2020 grant AQuS on quantum simulators.

The successful candidate will work in the research group led by Jens
Eisert at the Free University of Berlin. We are a young, internationally
visible, leading group in these fields of research, driven by a
stimulating climate of open discussion and creative thought. For a brief
survey of our research activities and a complete list of publications, see

http://www.physik.fu-berlin.de/en/einrichtungen/ag/ag-eisert

Applicants must have demonstrated excellent research accomplishment in the
past. Candidates with knowledge relevant for quantum simulations are
particularly welcome. This implies notions of computational complexity,
models for quantum computing, methods of abstract quantum information
science or implementations of quantum simulators.

Candidates should hold a degree in physics, mathematics or computer
science, or provide evidence for its successful completion in the near
future. The anticipated start date is January 2015, but exceptions can be
arranged. The postdoctoral position will be available for two years, and
can be extended depending on a successful initial phase.

Interested candidates are invited to submit

- a detailed curriculum vitae,
- a list of publications,
- the electronic (email) contact details of two potential referees.

All applications should be sent electronically to jenseisert [at]
gmail.com and annette.schumann-welde[at]fu-berlin.de , containing the key
word "AQuS" in the subject line.

The salary will amount to E13 (TV-L Berlin).

The group is based in Berlin, the capital of Germany, as part of the
Dahlem Center for Complex Quantum Systems at the Free University, which is
one of eight leading, research-driven German universities singled out in
the national German Excellence Initiative. The Berlin-Brandenburg area is
one of the country's major research clusters, home to four major
universities and eight Max Planck institutes, besides being a vibrant
creative metropolitan area offering a high quality of life.

Deadline is the 24th of October.
