Topic: tensor networks

Join Kantaro Ohmori’s project on lattice construction of quantum phases via higher complete sets. Research connects categorical and algebraic quantum field theory, generalized and non-invertible symmetries, tensor networks and quantum many-body systems. The first selection considers applications arriving by 30 November 2026 (JST); recruitment remains open until filled. 1.A one-year fixed-term employment contract, renewable based on evaluation, up to March 31, 2030. 2.RIKEN may adjust the above maximum period of renewability based on a) the employee’s abilities, workload at the time of contract

Two-dimensional topological order has caught much attention in connection to topological phases of matter and topological quantum computation, in particular. It is known that tensor networks are useful tools to study mathematical structures appearing in these topics. We present recent understanding of them from a viewpoint of operator algebras. No knowledge on operator algebras are assumed.
