Simulating quantum mechanics is known to be a difficult computational problem, especially
when dealing with large systems. However, this difficulty may be overcome by using some …

Gauge fields are central in our modern understanding of physics at all scales. At the highest
energy scales known, the microscopic universe is governed by particles interacting with …

Can high-energy physics be simulated by low-energy, non-relativistic, many-body systems
such as ultracold atoms? Such ultracold atomic systems lack the type of symmetries and …

Quantum field theory reconciles quantum mechanics and special relativity, and plays a
central role in many areas of physics. We developed a quantum algorithm to compute …

Abelian and non‐Abelian gauge theories are of central importance in many areas of
physics. In condensed matter physics, Abelian U (1) lattice gauge theories arise in the …

We study the out-of-equilibrium properties of $1+ 1$ dimensional quantum electrodynamics
(QED), discretized via the staggered-fermion Schwinger model with an Abelian $\mathbb {Z} …

Using a Fermi-Bose mixture of ultracold atoms in an optical lattice, we construct a quantum
simulator for a U (1) gauge theory coupled to fermionic matter. The construction is based on …

The many-body problem is ubiquitous in the theoretical description of physical phenomena,
ranging from the behaviour of elementary particles to the physics of electrons in solids. Most …

Using ultracold alkaline-earth atoms in optical lattices, we construct a quantum simulator for
U (N) and SU (N) lattice gauge theories with fermionic matter based on quantum link …

Non-Abelian gauge theories play an important role in the standard model of particle physics,
and unfold a partially unexplored world of exciting physical phenomena. In this Letter, we …
