Job announcements relevant to people interested in electronic structure calculations…
Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.
In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.
2 PhD positions at Oslo Metropolitan University ... (1 reply)
Deadline for applications extended: Last application date 28.May.2023
Back to Job listings...
The Department of Computer Science at Oslo Metropolitan University (OsloMet) has two vacant PhD positions in applied mathematics and computational methods within mathematical density-functional theory (DFT). The successful applicants will be affiliated with the Mathematical Modeling group and the newly established OsloMet Quantum Hub, and will work within the European Research Council (ERC) Starting Grant project Regularized density-functional analysis REGAL. Work within the project will be carried out closely with various local, national, and international collaborators.
The successful applicants' primary duty is to carry out and publish research connected to the objectives of the REGAL project that focus on the development of new theory for DFT.
PhD position applied mathematics: will focus on developing the mathematical theory of Moreau-Yosida regularization in DFT. It is preferred that the candidate has documented strong mathematical background and good familiarity with quantum mechanics.
For more information about this position see full announcement.
PhD position computational methods: will focus on implementations of algorithms that will involve programming language such as Python. The implementation will involve methods from mathematics and numerical mathematics, and in addition quantum mechanics and quantum chemistry. The preferred candidate should have good knowledge of quantum mechanics and be able to write good computer codes in, for example, Python.
For more information about this position see full announcement.
For both positions: advertised as 3-year position with 100% research, or a 4-year position with 75% research and 25% other tasks (teaching, supervision and/or administrative work). The goal must be to complete the PhD program/degree within the decided time frame. The start date of the position is 01.10.2023 at the latest.
Deadline for applications: 12.05.2023 (12th of May 2023)
