This posting targets candidates with a background in algebraic topology or category theory, knowledge of quantum computing is not required but would be an asset. The main objects we are interested in are simplicial distributions; see https://arxiv.org/abs/2204.06648 for an accessible account. They are simplicial sets that model spaces of probability distributions and can be used to study Bell inequalities that appear in quantum theory. For a more categorical approach, see also https://arxiv.org/abs/2211.00571. Applications are through mathjobs (https://www.mathjobs.org/jobs/list/22255) with a June 15, 2023 deadline. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Best, Cihan http://cihan.okay.bilkent.edu.tr/ [For admin and other information see: http://www.mta.ca/~cat-dist/ ]
