Topology of quantum resources | Postdoc (deadline extended)

Job type: 

Tags: 

Application deadline: 

Thursday, June 15, 2023

Postdoctoral positions are available in my group to work on the project Topology of Quantum Resources, funded by the US Air Force Office of Scientific Research.

This posting targets candidates with a background in algebraic topology or category theory, knowledge of quantum computing is not required but would be an asset. The main objects we are interested in are simplicial distributions; see https://arxiv.org/abs/2204.06648 for an accessible account. They are simplicial sets that model spaces of probability distributions and can be used to study Bell inequalities that appear in quantum theory. For a more categorical approach, see also https://arxiv.org/abs/2211.00571.

Applications are through mathjobs (https://www.mathjobs.org/jobs/list/22255) with a June 15, 2023 deadline.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
