About this position
The University of Geneva’s Theoretical Physics Department is advertising a postdoctoral position in the Quantum Dynamics group of Romain Vasseur. The project sits in the broad area of theoretical quantum matter and gives the successful researcher freedom to shape a research direction within the group’s interests.
The advertised research themes include nonequilibrium quantum dynamics, measurement-induced phenomena, open quantum systems, quantum information and complexity, tensor-network methods, statistical-mechanics approaches to inference and decoding, entanglement dynamics, quantum chaos, hydrodynamics, and related topics in quantum many-body physics. The position is designed for an independent postdoctoral researcher who wants to pursue original work while contributing to an active research program in Geneva.
The researcher will be based in a highly active environment at the University of Geneva, with close interactions across the Department of Theoretical Physics and the Geneva Quantum Center. The advert emphasizes collaborations within the group and the wider Geneva quantum community, alongside substantial freedom to develop independent projects.
The appointment is funded and is described as a two-year postdoctoral position, with the possibility of extension depending on funding availability and performance.
