ERC postdoctoral position in Vienna

Date: 25-Apr-2014 10:29

Message:
There is an opening for a postdoctoral position in Vienna within the  ERC project "Ab initio dynamical vertex approximation". The aim of the project is the development, implementation and application of a novel quantum field theoretical method describing  electronic  correlations on all time and length scales beyond state-of-the-art methods, such as DFT, DMFT or GW. The method bears a high potential for a better understanding of quantum critical heavy fermion systems,  high-temperature superconductors,
and transport through nano- and heterostructures.

For the postdoctoral position working  experience in at least one of the following fields is required:

(i) quantum field theory or DMFT,

(ii) QMC,

(iii) DFT or GW program development.

We offer a research topic at the scientific frontier in an international and vivid research environment. Vienna is a favorable location as regards culture and nature.

More information concerning the group is available at http://www.ifp.tuwien.ac.a
