I am recruiting several PostDocs in my group at Inria Saclay, Ecole Polytechnique near Paris on the following topics:
- Quantum Distributed Computing
- Quantum correlations, quantum nonlocality, entanglement
- Fermionic quantum information
- Quantum Foundations
- Mathematical Physics (Noncommutative polynomial optimisation, C* Algebras)
- More generally, all areas of Quantum Information Theory
Precise projects will be tailored to your expertise. To explore the possibility of joining the group, email me (marc-olivier.renou@inria.fr).
These positions are funded by my ERC Starting Grant QINF (fundamental laws ruling Quantum INFormation: bits, qubits and fermionic bits (febits) in networks - see https://marcolivierrenou.com/erc-qinf/), which studies how fermions can carry and process information in ways standard qubits cannot, and by the QuantERA project Quantum Network Algorithms (QNA, 2026–2029 - see https://research.cs.aalto.fi/da/qna/), which aims to identify the first distributed tasks with a practical quantum advantage.
As part of a new INRIA Team located in Saclay, you will have the possibility to collaborate with other quantum information researchers in Paris area and abroad:
- Distributed Computing: Jukka Suomela (Aalto, Finland), François Le Gall (Nagoya), and the other members of the QNA consortium, ...
- Quantum Physics: Nicolas Gisin (Geneva), Omar Fawzi (Inria Lyon), Antonio Acín (ICFO, Barcelona), David Gross (Cologne), ...
- Polynomial optimisation: Victor Magron (LAAS Toulouse), Igor Klep (Ljubljana), ...
- Inria teams Quriosity, Quacs, Cosmiq, Quantic, ...
