We discuss space-time chaos and scaling properties for classical non-Abelian gauge fields discretized on a spatial lattice. We emphasize that there is a ``no go'' for simulating the original continuum classical gauge fields over a long time…
Computing the vacuum and energy spectrum in non-Abelian, interacting lattice gauge theories remains an open challenge, in part because approximating the continuum limit requires large lattices and huge Hilbert spaces. To address this…
We discuss the non-Abelian Stokes theorem for SU(2) gauge fields which avoids both additional integration variables and surface ordering. The idea is to introduce the instant color orientation of the flux piercing the loop. The non-Abelian…

We consider a class of quantum lattice models in $1+1$ dimensions represented as local quantum circuits that enjoy a particular "dual-unitarity" property. In essence, this property ensures that both the evolution "in time" and that "in…
