We show that quantum circuits restricted by a symmetry inherit the properties of the whole special unitary group $SU(2^n)$, in particular composition, algebraic and topological closedness and connectedness. It extends prior work on…

An improved mapping of one-dimensional SU(2) non-Abelian gauge theory onto qubit degrees of freedom is presented. This new mapping allows for a reduced unphysical Hilbert space. Insensitivity to interactions within this unphysical space is…
