Odense, Odense Kommune, Denmark Syddansk Universitet Full time

The Quantum Field Theory group of Professor Francesco Sannino at the Quantum Theory Centre (QTC) hosted by the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science (IMADA) and the Danish Institute for Advanced Study, SDU invites applications for one PhD position.

The starting date should be within autumn of 2024.
The application deadline is the 8 September 2024. The doctoral programme is of three years.

Outstanding candidates should have a master in theoretical physics with proven experience in any or several of these areas:

(Quantum) Gravity: Rigorous approaches to (quantum) gravity from effective quantum metric descriptions to string theory, precise results in (quantum) black hole and wormhole physics including entanglement.
Quantum Field Theory: Conformal field theory and/or conformal window of gauge theories, exact results in semiclassical methods, effective field theories, renormalization group, high order perturbation theory, higher symmetries.
Lattice Field Theory: Conformal window and near conformal dynamics of strongly coupled theories, novel lattice methodologies (including applications of quantum computing and artificial intelligence), lattice field theory for standard model physics and beyond including matter in extreme conditions.

The position is funded by the Carlsberg Foundation through the Semper Ardens grant Solving Quantum Field Theory held by Professor and Director Francesco Sannino, and the candidates are expected to work on the topics related to the project.
