Join Our Team at the School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore
The School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences (SPMS) at NTU Singapore hosts research and education activities in two divisions: Division of Mathematical Sciences (MAS) and Division of Physics and Applied Physics (PAP). MAS covers diverse topics ranging from pure mathematics to the applications of mathematics in cryptography, computing, business, and finance. PAP covers many areas of fundamental and applied physics, including quantum information, condensed matter physics, biophysics, and photonics. Over the years, SPMS has attracted talented individuals from around the world and Singapore to join as scientific leaders and researchers.
We are seeking a Research Fellow to work on developing quantum algorithms for simulating quantum many body systems, focusing on topological phases in quantum spin systems.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop quantum algorithms to measure non-local order in quantum many body systems
- Construct shallow quantum circuits to implement the quantum algorithms using software development kit, e.g., Qiskit
- Perform error analysis of algorithm developed and optimize for qubit and gate noise
- Use the algorithm developed to simulate microscopic Hamiltonians for complex many body systems that cannot be efficiently simulated on classical computers, focusing on topological phases in quantum spin systems
- Implement on quantum hardware
Job Requirements
- Ph.D. in Physics or related field
- Knowledge of quantum many body physics and quantum phase transitions
- Familiarity with quantum information theory
- Experience in developing quantum algorithms
- Proficiency in computational methods
The College of Science seeks a diverse and inclusive workforce and is committed to equality of opportunity. We welcome applications from all and recruit on the basis of merit, regardless of age, race, gender, religion, marital status and family responsibilities, or disability.
