Open Positions

I am actively looking for 1-2 PhD students. The minimum requirement is knowledge in quantum mechanics and/or quantum information. An ideal candidate would have the following skills as bonuses:

• Knowledge in quantum optics or other branches of theoretical physics
• Knowledge in abstract algebra, topology, group representation theory, or similar areas
• Experience in classical algorithm design and implementation in C/C++ or Python

Please contact me via email if you are interested. Before reaching out, you are encouraged to glance at the following materials to learn about quantum error correction and fault tolerance:

• Barbara M. Terhal, Quantum error correction for quantum memories, Rev. Mod. Phys. 87, 307 (2015), arXiv:1302.3428
• Dan Browne, Lectures on topological codes and quantum computation
• Daniel Gottesman, An introduction to quantum error correction and fault-tolerant quantum computation
• Steven Girvin, Introduction to quantum error correction and fault tolerance
