Flatiron Research Fellow - Software, Center Computational Quantum Physics

Directed by Antoine Georges and co-directed by Andrew Millis, the Center for Computational Quantum Physics (CCQ) is a leading international center for the study of equilibrium and non-equilibrium many‑body quantum systems, with applications to condensed matter physics, materials science, quantum materials, quantum emulators and related fields. The development of the concepts, algorithms and code libraries needed to advance the field is fundamental to the work of the center.

Research projects currently pursued at CCQ cover a broad range of methods and interest, see: https://(Use the "Apply for this Job" box below)./

CCQ currently comprises more than 40 scientists at career stages from recent Ph.D.s through senior scientists, as well as support staff, visiting scientists, and affiliated graduate students and interns. The institute has vigorous visitor and workshop programs and strong interactions with scientists from neighboring institutions.

CCQ has established formal partnerships with the New York City‑Max Planck Center for Non‑Equilibrium Quantum Phenomena, the CIFAR Quantum Materials program, the QUAST collaboration, the CEA‑France, and the Collège de France and collaborates extensively with scientists at a range of institutions in the US and internationally. Candidates interested in collaborative work or joint positions are encouraged to discuss possibilities with CCQ staff.

A core effort at CCQ is the development of open‑source software libraries with the latest algorithms and tools for advancing scientific research at CCQ and across the wider scientific community. Major software efforts at CCQ include the TRIQS library for quantum embedding, the AFQMC library for auxiliary‑field quantum Monte Carlo and the ITensor library for tensor network algorithms.
