Matrix quantum mechanics plays various important roles in theoretical physics, such as a
holographic description of quantum black holes, and it underpins the only practical …

The confinement/deconfinement transition in gauge theory plays important roles in physics,
including the description of thermal phase transitions in the dual gravitational theory. Partial …

A bstract We propose a new framework for simulating U (k) Yang-Mills theory on a universal
quantum computer. This construction uses the orbifold lattice formulation proposed by …

A bstract We present a novel framework for simulating matrix models on a quantum
computer. Supersymmetric matrix models have natural applications to superstring/M-theory …

We describe how the general mechanism of partial deconfinement applies to large-N QCD
and a partially deconfined phase inevitably appears between completely confined and …

A bstract We propose an orbifold lattice formulation of QCD suitable for quantum
simulations. We show explicitly how to encode gauge degrees of freedom into qubits using …

A bstract In gauge/gravity duality, matrix degrees of freedom on the gauge theory side play
important roles for the emergent geometry. In this paper, we discuss how the entanglement …

A bstract We study the confinement/deconfinement transition in the D0-brane matrix model
(often called the BFSS matrix model) and its one-parameter deformation (the BMN matrix …

A bstract We explain the microscopic origin of linear confinement potential with the Casimir
scaling in generic confining gauge theories. In the low-temperature regime of confining …

A bstract We provide evidence for partial deconfinement—the deconfinement of a SU (M)
subgroup of the SU (N) gauge group—by using lattice Monte Carlo simulations. We take …
