    Job Description

    We are sharing a specialised consulting opportunity for experienced Physics Experts in high-energy physics, mathematical physics, holography, and gravitational theory with strong expertise in AdS/CFT, on-shell gravitational actions, Weyl–Fefferman–Graham gauge methods, tensor algebra, and boundary curvature invariants.

    Selected professionals will contribute to a frontier research-level benchmark involving holography, AdS/CFT, Weyl anomalies, and higher-dimensional geometric structures in dimensions up to d8d \leq 8. Contributors may participate as Solvers, Auditors, or Adjudicators depending on subfield expertise, seniority, and hands-on research experience. No prior experience in AI is required.

    Key Responsibilities

    Holography & Gravitational Analysis

    • Solve and review research-level problems involving AdS/CFT and holographic dualities
    • Derive and evaluate on-shell gravitational actions, boundary contributions, and regularisation procedures
    • Analyse bulk-boundary relationships and near-boundary geometric structures
    • Work with Weyl–Fefferman–Graham gauge and Fefferman–Graham-type expansions
    • Identify conceptual, sign, convention, or methodological inconsistencies in technical derivations

    Tensor Geometry & Weyl Anomalies

    • Develop and verify complex tensor expressions, curvature tensors, and geometric invariants
    • Check contractions, index structure, symmetry properties, and dimensional consistency
    • Analyse boundary curvature invariants and higher-dimensional structures up to d8d \leq 8
    • Derive or verify holographic Weyl-anomaly expressions
    • Compare alternative formulations and assess mathematical and physical consistency

    Benchmark Review & Adjudication

    • Produce complete research-level solutions as a Solver
    • Audit tensor algebra, derivations, and physical interpretations
    • Compare competing approaches and adjudicate technically disputed solutions
    • Identify geometric, algebraic, conceptual, or methodological errors
    • Document assumptions, reasoning, and conclusions with research-level precision

    Ideal Profile

    • Advanced expertise in high-energy physics, mathematical physics, holography, or a closely related field
    • Strong direct experience with AdS/CFT and holographic dualities
    • Demonstrated familiarity with on-shell gravitational actions
    • Extensive knowledge of Weyl anomalies and Fefferman–Graham expansions
    • Familiarity with Weyl–Fefferman–Graham gauge methods
    • Strong command of tensor algebra and differential geometry
    • Experience with boundary curvature invariants and higher-dimensional geometric expressions
    • Strong analytical and mathematical reasoning skills
    • Ability to communicate complex theoretical-physics concepts clearly
    • Experience reviewing advanced theoretical-physics research is highly valuable
    • No prior AI-training or model-evaluation experience is required

    Engagement Details

    • Independent contractor engagement
    • Fully remote
    • Compensation: $80–$160/hour
    • Work will involve AdS/CFT, holography, on-shell gravitational actions, Weyl–Fefferman–Graham gauge methods, tensor algebra, differential geometry, boundary curvature invariants, and Weyl anomalies
    • Research problems may involve dimensions up to d8d \leq 8
    • Contributors may participate as Solvers, Auditors, or Adjudicators depending on expertise and seniority
    • Assignments may involve analytical derivations, tensor identities, holographic anomaly calculations, and advanced benchmark evaluation
    • Project scope, workload, technical topics, and evaluation standards may evolve depending on project requirements
    • Work must be completed without using confidential or proprietary information belonging to any employer, research institution, laboratory, collaborator, or other third party
