Quantum simulating (with) an entangled fabric

Presenting Author: Natalie Klco, Duke University

Toward the quantum simulation of lattice gauge theories, we will discuss the many complementary routes for representing continuous fields onto discrete quantum systems, reverberations of such decisions throughout subsequent algorithmic quantum resources, and techniques for reliably protecting symmetries during imperfect dynamical evolution. From multiple perspectives, this will lead to examples of how naturally distributed entanglement in the simulated field can provide practical guidance toward quantum simulation (co)design, both for applications in fundamental physics and for large-scale quantum computations more broadly.
