About this position

  • The research group of Yi-Ming Wu at the Institute for Advanced Study in
  • Physics, Zhejiang University invites applications for one or more
  • postdoctoral positions in theoretical condensed matter physics (https://person.zju.edu.cn/en/yimwu).
  • The position is initially offered for two years, with the possibility
  • of extension to a third year upon mutual agreement and satisfactory
  • progress. The position offers a highly competitive salary and a
  • comprehensive benefits package.
  • Our group is broadly interested in quantum many-body physics and
  • correlated electronic systems, with current research directions
  • including: strongly correlated electronic systems and unconventional
  • quantum phases; disorder-induced phenomena, localization, and
  • disordered quantum systems; moiré and other quantum materials; quantum
  • dynamics, entanglement, and nonequilibrium many-body physics;
  • connections between condensed matter physics and quantum information.
  • We are particularly interested in candidates who are willing to
  • explore new directions at the interface between traditional condensed
  • matter theory and quantum information science. Possible research
  • projects may involve analytical field-theoretic approaches, numerical
  • many-body methods, or a combination of both. Postdoctoral researchers
  • will have substantial freedom to develop their own research directions
  • and are encouraged to collaborate with other researchers at Zhejiang
  • University and beyond.
  • Applicants to this position should have, or be close to obtaining, a
  • Ph.D. in physics or a closely related field. A strong background in
  • condensed matter theory, quantum many-body physics, quantum
  • information, or related areas is desirable. Interested candidates
  • should submit through AcademicJobsOnline: 1) a curriculum vitae; 2) a
  • publication list; 3) a brief research statement describing previous
  • work and future research interests; 4) three reference letters. The
  • starting date is flexible. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling
  • basis until the position is filled. Informal inquiries are welcome and
  • may be directed to yimwu@zju.edu.cn
  • The Institute for Advanced Study in Physics (IASP) at Zhejiang
  • University provides an active and interdisciplinary research
  • environment in condensed matter physics, quantum information,
  • statistical physics, and related areas. Zhejiang University is located
  • in Hangzhou, a historic city that served as the capital of the
  • Southern Song dynasty and is well known for West Lake and its rich
  • cultural heritage. The city has now become one of China's leading tech
  • hubs, home to innovative companies such as Alibaba, DeepSeek, and Game
