hela Sverige Welcome to Linnaeus University! A place for knowledge, ideas and development. For growth potential and a belief in the future. In Småland and in the world.
The Department of Mathematics has its placement in the Faculty of Engineering. The department has about 25 employees, of which 10 researchers and 3 doctoral students and provides teaching, research and development. The environment in mathematics is lively with specialization in mathematical physics (wave modeling, quantum information and quantum probability), classical and quantum stochastic processes, p-adic analysis, number theory and dynamical systems (deterministic and random) with applications to cryptography, biology and cognition, quantum probabilistic modeling of cognition and decision making, financial mathematics, insurance and statistics.
We are now looking for a Research assistant in applications of quantum probability for modeling of cognition and decision making.
Description of the position
The classical and quantum stochastics group at the Department of Mathematics at the Faculty of Technology, Department of Physics and Electrical Engineering at Linnaeus University invites applications for a research assistant position in applications of quantum probability for modeling of cognition. Linnaeus University provides an international and dynamic environment for the training of researchers and the research group in classical and quantum stochastics actively works in pure theory and applications.
The successful candidate will work on applications of quantum probability for modeling of cognition and especially decision making processes with possible applications to psychology in cooperation with classical and quantum stochastics research group of the Department of Mathematics. The successful candidate will also be involved in supervision of bachelor and master students.
The position is limited to 6 months of 50% time. The contract can start immediately. Participation of women in research is encouraged. The position is located in Växjö Sweden.
