Subject: PhD position in quantum information theory

We are currently offering a PhD position to a highly motivated and
well-qualified student who intends to enhance his or her career in quantum
information theory. The successful candidate will work as part of the
research group led by Jens Eisert at the FU Berlin. For an overview of the
research activities of the group, see

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

We are an active research group with a culture of open discussion, creative
interdisciplinary thought and substantial international collaborations. In
the focus of attention for this PhD project are specifically topics of

- quantum error correction
- topological quantum memories
- decoding algorithms
- physical implementations of topological quantum computing and
- dissipation mechanism in quantum many-body systems.

Candidates must hold a degree in physics or mathematics or should complete
the requirements for a degree soon. Interested candidates are invited to
submit

- a letter indicating their main research interests,
- a detailed curriculum vitae,
- the electronic (email) contact details of two potential referees.

All applications should be sent in electronic form to
jense at physik.fu-berlin.de with the key word "QuantumInformation2016"
in the subject line. Review of the applications will begin after July 10,
2016 and will continue until the positions are filled. Early submissions are
appreciated. The start date is flexible.
