Advertiser / Workplace: University of Gdańsk, Faculty of Mathematics, Physics and Informatics, Institute of Informatics, Division of Quantum Information.

We are looking for a Post-doctoral researcher in the OPUS 25 project entitled “Design of friendly for environment processing of quantum resources and cost of security of quantum communication networks” (referred to below as DIFFQRN) led by Karol Horodecki. 

The positions have been created as part of the OPUS-25 program financed by the National Science Centre.

Research task:

Researchers across Europe, within the Quantum Internet Alliance team and other teams worldwide, are making a strong effort to build a fully functioning Quantum Internet. The task is challenging since one encounters inherent difficulties when designing entanglement networks due to decoherence and the quantum no-cloning principle. The project DIFFQRN from the National Science Centre aims to compare the optimality of the various proposed solutions to this problem, estimate their cost, and design more optimal solutions if needed. Since the generation of the secure key is one of the main applications in the future of the Internet, the special focus will be on expressing the cost in terms of the invested secure key. The broad vision of a part of this project is to develop quantum Internet in an optimal, least costly way.

Key responsibilities:

As the key member of the DIFFQRN project, the candidate will conduct scientific research, contribute to writing publications, and present obtained results at conferences and seminars.
