Postdoctoral Position in Quantum Condensed Matter Theory

This postdoctoral position at the Laboratoire de Physique Théorique et Modélisation (LPTM), CY Cergy Paris Université, offers a unique opportunity to conduct advanced research in quantum condensed matter theory. The successful candidate will join the group of Prof. Dmitry Kovrizhin and focus on non-equilibrium phenomena in quantum Hall systems, Chern insulators, quantum spin-liquids, and quantum circuits, with applications to NISQ quantum computers. The research environment at LPTM is dynamic and collaborative, providing access to state-of-the-art facilities and a vibrant academic community in the Paris region. The position is for two years and is ideal for candidates with a strong background in condensed matter theory, particularly those experienced in the theory of strongly correlated systems and advanced numerical techniques. The role involves both analytical and computational work, contributing to cutting-edge developments in quantum physics. Applicants should have a PhD or equivalent in physics, with 1–4 years of postdoctoral research experience, and demonstrate an excellent research track record in relevant fields. Proficiency in English is essential for effective communication and collaboration within the group and with international partners. While the position is not funded through the EU Research Framework Programme, it provides an excellent platform for career development in theoretical physics. The LPTM is located in Cergy-Pontoise, offering a stimulating academic setting within easy reach of Paris. Interested candidates are encouraged to contact Prof. Dmitry Kovrizhin for further details and to submit their application materials via email. The application deadline is March 30, 2026, at 16:00 (Europe/Paris). For more information about the laboratory and ongoing research projects, visit the LPTM website. This position is a great opportunity for motivated researchers aiming to advance their expertise in quantum condensed matter theory and related areas.
