TWO POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH POSITIONS IN QUANTUM THERMODYNAMICS

Applications are being accepted for two postdoctoral research positions
in the Quantum Enabling System Technologies (QuEST) group (https://quest.ku.edu.tr/) of
Professor Ozgur E. Mustecaplioglu at Koc University. Both positions will primarily involve theoretical
studies of quantum thermodynamical properties of systems for specific applications.

Open Date: 09/20/2017 Close Date: 11/30/2017

Description

contact: Giulia Ferrini; email address: giulia.ferrini@gmail.com
Starting date: early 2018. Duration: 5 years.

The Virginia Tech Department of Mathematics anticipates a tenure-track opening in Quantum Information with a start date of August 10, 2018. The successful candidate will have a research program in the mathematical aspects of quantum information theory. Possible specialties include, but are not limited to, quantum information theory, quantum error correction, topological quantum computation, holography in quantum information, quantum control, many-body entanglement, or mathematics applicable to any of these topics.

Recent years are witnessing a renewed interest in thermodynamic applications at the nanoscale. Technological advances are leading to unprecedented levels of miniaturisation in the fabrication of microscopic engines capable of producing work. Recent experiments have produced engines built with only a few degrees of freedom, as for example a single electron transistor and the recently developed single ion engine. At the nanoscale, thermal fluctuations are quite strong and cannot be ignored any longer.
