Abstract

We construct a tessellation of AdS3_3, by extending the equilateral triangulation of AdS2_2 on the Poincar\'{e} disk based on the (2,3,7)(2,3,7) triangle group, suitable for studying strongly coupled phenomena and the AdS/CFT correspondence. A Hamiltonian form conducive to the study of dynamics and quantum computation is presented. We show agreement between lattice calculations and analytic results for the free scalar theory and find evidence of a second order critical transition for ϕ4\phi^4 theory using Monte Carlo simulations. Applications of this AdS Hamiltonian formulation to real time evolution and quantum computing are discussed.
