The ANR Retour des postdoc NLQCC aims to study the foundations of quantum information from the perspective of computation and cryptography.
The quantum information group at Telecom ParisTech is recruiting a postdoc. The position is supported by ANR project "Quantum non-locality, computation and cryptography" that focuses on the foundations of quantum physics from the perspective of computation and cryptography. The research in the quantum information group is highly interdisciplinary, between computer science and physics, and candidates from both communities are encouraged to apply. More information on the group can be found at: http://iq.enst.fr and about the project at: http://perso.telecom-paristech.fr/~kaplan/anrnlqcc/
The applicant should be familiar with quantum information and more specifically, prior work in one these areas is desirable: Quantum cryptography, quantum computation and complexity, foundations of quantum physics, device independent cryptography, entanglement theory. The position is starting fall 2013 for one year with a possibility to renew for one more year. The salary is standard french postdoc, with benefits such as health insurance.
Applications must include a research statement, a CV and the names and contacts of references. All material has to be sent by email at: [email protected] Feel free to contact also for informal inquieries. The reviewing process will continue until the position is filled.
