Offer Description

We invite applications for a postdoctoral fellowship at the Center for Theoretical Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences, financed from the SONATA BIS project entitled "Characterization and certification of quantum resources"(2019/34/E/ST2/00369). The project leader is dr hab. Remigiusz Augusiak (website: http://raugusiak.weebly.com/ ).

Project description: The broad subject of the project is widely-understood verification and certification of quantum resources. There are two main aims. The first one is to characterize quantum resources such as quantum entanglement or non-locality and propose efficient methods of their detection. The second aim is to design certification methods for quantum states, quantum operations etc. in various scenarios typically considered within the field of quantum information such as for instance the device-independent scenario. The research has a fundamental character.
