We are seeking highly motivated PhD students to join our research group in Theoretical and Computational Chemistry. Candidates are expected to have either excellent analytical skills, ideally with a background in fermionic quantum systems and reduced density matrices, or a strong expertise in numerical methods used in quantum chemistry. Mathematical Physicists are encouraged to apply as well. Our projects are concerned with the interface of Quantum Chemistry and Quantum Information Theory. We resort to analytic approaches partly complemented/guided by computational studies to gain universal insights into interacting quantum many-body systems. A particular emphasis lies on the concept of reduced density matrices and the ground state problem.
