POST-DOCTORAL POSITION AT PHYSICS DEPARTMENT, UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON (UH) [www.uh.edu]
- One position available (with starting date in June 1st 2025)
Description: Post-doctoral associate position on Condensed Matter Theory (Quantum Many-body systems) to study new phases of interacting quantum systems primarily in equilibrium. Specifically, in the areas of strongly correlated systems, including the effects of interactions interfacing with non-trivial topology and topological phase transitions. These also include the effects of disorder in strongly correlated systems, the physics of High-Tc's and interactions in frustrated lattices and its connections with spin liquid phases.
Host at UH (Houston):
• Rubem Mondaini, https://sites.google.com/view/rubemmondaini/home
The position is opened for a 1.5-year appointment, with six-month evaluations on performance and with the possible extension for an extra semester pending funding availability and mutual agreement of both parties.
Salaries are competitive and depend on the Postdoc's previous experience.
Requirements
1. possess a PhD in Physics and a solid knowledge in the many-body formalism.
2. work closely with R. Mondaini and collaborate with other Department members.
3. have a strong background in programming and numerical skills in general with desirable experience in intensive and parallel computing (Fortran, C, C++, Python).
Applicants with a previous background in at least one of the following techniques,
• Quantum Monte Carlo (either DQMC, PQMC, DCA, SSE, etc.)
• DMRG
• Exact Diagonalization (with and without symmetries)
• Kernel Polynomial methods
have a major advantage.
Applications, including detailed curriculum vitae, list of publications, a brief statement of research plan and at least two letters of recommendation, should be sent to either rmondaini@uh.edu
All positions at the University of Houston-System are security sensitive and will require a criminal history check.
The University of Houston System and its universities are an Equal Opportunity Institution.
