PhD/Postdoc position for distributed computations using entanglement

22.12.2021, Wissenschaftliches Personal

The institute for communications engineering is currently offering a positions for doctoral candidates or postdoctoral candidates with the topic “Fundamental concepts in Quantum Computing” (TV-L E13) (f/m/x). In this project we develop protocols for distributed computations using entanglement as a resource. Furthermore we will give upper bounds for the capacity for the considered channel by using quantum-information theoretical methods. The position is initially limited to four years with a possible extension.

Content of the project and areas of responsibility
• Quantum error correcting codes,
• Quantum distributed computations.
Your qualifications
▪ High rank university degree in electrical engineering, communications engineering, mathematics, physics (or similar) with thorough knowledge in quantum information and communication theory, as well as in quantum coding theory
▪ Interest in theoretical work with high practical relevance
▪ Motivation to demonstrate research results on a hardware platform
▪ Goal-oriented, independent and structured work style
Our offer
▪ Current research topic in a challenging international working environment
▪ Full-time position (TV-L E13)
