Your PhD project will be part of an interdisciplinary research
project bridging theoretical physics and theoretical computer science.
In the course of this, you will work on
extending established techniques for quantum circuit representation
and manipulation (e.g. diagrammatic methods like ZX-calculus) towards
description of quantum noise
employ such extended methods for quantum circuit compilation,
optimization and error mitigation
collaborate with theoretical computer scientists on developing
noise-aware quantum programming paradigms
