Two PhD positions in condensed matter theory and statistical physics to join the research group of Johannes Hofmann at the University of Gothenburg.
PhD Project 1 aims to develop advanced statistical methods based on kinetic theory, utilizing both numerical and analytical approaches, to study charge and heat transport in electron and electron-phonon gases. The project will focus on hydrodynamic transport–a recently observed mode of transport driven by dominant interactions–in both solid-state systems and atomic quantum gases.
PhD Project 2 aims to explore the theoretical foundations of band structure engineering through moiré superpotentials in solid-state systems, and to describe the interplay with the phase diagram and the quantum geometry. This project is part of a jointly funded collaboration with experimentalists and will proceed in close connection with local experimental groups studying graphene and high-temperature superconductivity.
