The newly established quantum information group at Freiburg University invites applications for PhD and postdoctoral positions.

We work on a broad array of topics in quantum information theory, many-body theory, and mathematical physics. In addition, we aim to strengthen our profile in other areas of applied math, in particular on problems related to compressed sensing, matrix completion and other topics in machine learning theory. Please visit our web site www.qc.uni-freiburg.de for further information.

While part of the Institute of Physics, we welcome applications from researchers with a background in math, engineering, or other sciences. We value creativity, mathematical rigor, and openness to interdisciplinary collaborations.

Remuneration will be according to the German TVL E-13 scale (100% for postdoctoral researchers, 66% for doctoral candidates).

Candidates should send a full CV including a short statement of research interests to david.gross@physik.uni-freiburg.de. Please include electronic contact details of two referees.
