PhD & postdoc positions at LMU Munich

We are offering multiple PhD & postdoctoral positions to well-qualified, highly motivated, 
and dynamic young scientists who wish to enhance their scientific career in a stimulating 
environment. The successful candidates will be joining the group led by Christian Schilling 
which is part of the Chair of Theoretical Physics -- Quantum Matter together with Ulrich 
Schollwöck, Lode Pollet and Fabian Grusdt. The research of our group is concerned with 
the interface of Quantum Information Theory and Quantum Many-Body Physics. We resort 
to analytic approaches partly complemented by computational studies to gain universal 
insights into interacting quantum many-body systems. A particular emphasis lies on the 
concept of reduced density matrices and the ground state problem. 
 
Applications are welcomed for the following related long-term research programs:
 
P1:   Tensor network methods for quantum chemistry
 
P2:   Foundation of quantum computing: fermionic systems 
 
P3:   Quantum information theory for fermions
 
P4:   Foundation of functional theories & N-representability problem
 
The offered positions are related to the cluster of excellence ``Munich Center for Quantum Science and
Technology’’ https://www.mcqst.de/about/members/christian-schilling.html [www.mcqst.de]
and are funded through the Munich Quantum Valley https://www.munich-quantum-valley.de/ [www.munich-quantum-valley.de]
and the German research foundation https://gepris.dfg.de/gepris/projekt/414324924?language=en
arious postdoc positions are initially for 2 years.
 
Application deadline: 31 May 2022
Starting date: flexible
