Remote Auditor: Disordered Spin Systems & Quantum Codes

ixolabs.ai; France; Sur place; EUR 151 000 - 251 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

ixolabs.ai invites a remote research expert to audit and adjudicate theoretical and numerical arguments in disorder, topology and finite-system behavior within statistical physics and quantum information contexts.

The role focuses on analyzing replicated random-bond Ising and Ashkin–Teller models, addressing dualities, quenched disorder and toric-code thresholds, with deliverables including defensible solutions or structured critiques.

Qualifications

• PhD-level or equivalent research background in statistical physics, quantum information or condensed-matter theory.
• Practical research using duality, quenched-disorder averaging and lattice self-duality.
• Numerical experience with the four-state Potts model and domain-wall free energy; familiarity with toric-code thresholds.

Responsabilités

• Analyze replicated random-bond Ising and Ashkin–Teller models and their relation to Nishimori line and toric-code threshold phenomena.
• Check arguments involving Kramers–Wannier duality, quenched-disorder averaging and square-lattice self-duality; make hidden assumptions explicit.
• Evaluate numerical work on the four-state Potts model and explain the interpretation of domain-wall free energy.
• Investigate noncontractible loop defects and other relevant topological features with reproducible calculations or precise critiques.
