PhD Scholarship in combinatorial and discrete mathematical techniques applied to Quantum Theory

A fully-funded PhD student position is available at the Department of Mathematics at Nottingham Trent. The studentship will pay UK fees (currently set at £4121 for 2016/17 and are revised annually) and provide a maintenance stipend linked to the RCUK rate (this is revised annually and is currently £14,296 for academic year 2016/17) for up to three years. The project can be started in the Summer 2017.

This project will require a student with an interest in the investigation of quantum information theory, and the ability (and confidence) to adapt or combine existing mathematical techniques to generate new, more appropriate quantum designs.

Applicants are expected to be highly motivated and creative individuals with strong academic records, and in receipt of a BSc Hons (2/1 or above) in mathematics / computer science / physics. Experience in theoretical physics or quantum information is welcome.
