PhD position in the group of Theory of Strongly Correlated Materials in the LPEM laboratory of ESPCI Paris. The PhD candidate will be trained to research in condensed matter theory and will pursue a research line within the objectives of the ERC Consolidator Grant project StrongCoPhy4Energy. In particular, he/she will learn state of the art techniques of quantum field theory for many-body physics such as Dynamical mean-field theory and slave-particle methods and will apply them to his PhD research. A focus of the PhD thesis will be on investigating the effect of coexisting weakly and strongly correlated conduction electrons in a metal and their role in favouring high-temperature superconductivity.
