PhD Opportunity: Quantum Algorithm Development & Tensor Networks

Are you passionate about the intersection of Quantum Computing and Artificial Intelligence?

The QMLTN group at UL FRI is seeking a PhD student to join our mission to bridge the gap between classical tensor methods and next-generation quantum hardware. This is a chance to work at the absolute frontier of quantum computational science.

Focus Areas:

We are looking for candidates interested in one of the following tracks:

πŸ”Ή Quantum Track: VQE, Adiabatic Algorithms, Quantum Error Correction, Reservoir Computing, and Neural Quantum States. πŸ”Ή Tensor Networks Track: Tensor Cross Approximation, Variational Optimization, and applying TN architectures to NLP. πŸ”Ή Machine Learning Track: effective description of quantum systems (SINDY, Koopman), physics-informed machine learning

Why apply?

βœ… Work on high-impact projects (including the KTTK21 consortium). βœ… Access to cutting-edge quantum software and HPC resources. βœ… Join a collaborative, interdisciplinary environment at the leading edge of Quantum Algorithm Development.

Whom are we looking for?
  • A Master’s degree in Physics, Computer Science, or Mathematics.
  • Strong coding skills (Python, PyTorch, Qiskit, JAX, or similar).
  • A deep curiosity for many-body quantum systems and algorithmic optimization.
