Dear colleagues,
Several postdoctoral positions are available in the Quantum Information and
Computation group (https://quantique.labri.fr/members/) at the CS
department of the University of Bordeaux (France). Applications should be
submitted by **January 23** for full consideration.
We are seeking candidates with an interest in research on quantum
information, quantum algorithms, and quantum simulations, complexity
theory. Specific topics they can expect to work on include:
* Quantum Algorithms and Computational Speedups (optimization and Monte
Carlo methods, combinatorial algorithms, distributed algorithms, quantum
walks, quantum simulation)
* Information and Complexity Theory (query complexity, entanglement
measures, simulation of quantum circuits, quantum graphs)
* Error-Correction and Mitigation (properties of QECC, theoretically and
practically good quantum codes, error mitigation strategies)
* Quantum Computing and Fundamental Physics (simulation of fermionic
systems, quantum field theory, holographic complexity, Krylov complexity)
Candidates should have training or experience in at least one of the
following areas: quantum information and computation, algorithmic theory,
or complexity theory.
The recruited candidates are expected to start in Fall 2026 (or earlier).
The positions are for a duration of 24 months, with a net income ranging
between 2100€ and 2500€, depending on the candidate's experience. The
position includes French social security coverage and employee benefits
(health insurance, public transport expenses, paid leave, etc.). We welcome
applicants from all backgrounds and promote a friendly, safe, and
supportive team environment.
Interested applicants should contact Yassine Hamoudi (
yassine.hamoudi@labri.fr) with the following materials: a CV (including a
list of publications), a brief cover letter or research statement, and the
names and email addresses of one or two referees.
