How to quantum compute non-Abelian gauge theories: theoretical and algorithmic considerations

IQC Seminar - Zohreh Davoudi, University of Maryland

Quantum computing gauge theories of relevance to Nature requires a range of theoretical and algorithmic developments to make simulations amenable in the near and far terms. With a focus on the SU(2) lattice gauge theory with matter, I will motivate the need for efficient theoretical formulations, introduce general quantum algorithms that can simulate them efficiently, and discuss strategies for analyzing the required quantum resources accurately. These considerations will be of relevance to simulating other gauge theories of increasing complexity, including quantum chromodynamics.
