Research Associate for the Project “Quantum computational fluid dynamics” § 28 Abs. 3 HmbHG

Duties include academic services in the project named above. Research associates may also pursue independent research and further academic qualifications.

• Conduct original theoretical physics research into quantum and tensor network algorithms for solving partial differential equations with a focus on applications in computational fluid dynamics.
• Develop software implementing these Tensor Network algorithms on high-performance classical computers.
• Develop quantum software and classical simulators for quantum algorithms for computational fluid dynamics.
• Solve computational fluid dynamics problems, analyse the solutions and benchmark against existing data.
• Manage the research project on a day-to-day basis and regularly report progress to D. Jaksch.
• Write research papers for internationally refereed journals and presenting results at national and international conferences.
• Engage with theory and experimental colleagues with the aim to establish and maintain scientific collaborations.
• Contribute to the positive atmosphere, maintenance and smooth running of the research group, as required.
• Contribute to the intellectual life of the research group, including participating in video and teleconference meetings, and travelling for national and international workshops and meetings as required.
• Contribute to the writing of project reports and assisting with other administrative duties as required.
