We study lattice formulations of the two-dimensional N=2 Wess-Zumino model with a cubic superpotential. Discretizations with and without lattice supersymmetries are compared. We observe that the "Nicolai improvement" introduces new problems…
Our review of the lattice chiral fermion delves into some critical areas of lattice field theory. By abandoning Hermiticity, the non-Hermitian formulation circumvents the Nielsen-Ninomiya theorem while maintaining chiral symmetry, a novel…
Using techniques from hopping expansion we identically map the lattice Schwinger model with Wilson fermions to a model of oriented loops on the lattice. This is done by first computing the explicit form of the fermion determinant in the…
State-of-the-art algorithms for simulating fermions coupled to gauge fields often rely on integrating fermion degrees of freedom. While successful in simulating QCD at zero chemical potential, at finite density these approaches are hindered…
We study a tensor network formulation of the two dimensional lattice $\mathcal{N}=1$ Wess-Zumino model with Wilson derivatives for both fermions and bosons. The tensor renormalization group allows us to compute the partition function…

Lattice gauge theories describe fundamental phenomena in nature, but calculating their real-time dynamics on classical computers is notoriously difficult. In a recent publication [Nature 534, 516 (2016)], we proposed and experimentally…
We report on the status of our programme to simulate Sp($2N$) gauge theories on the lattice. Motivated by the potential realization of an SU($4$)/Sp($4$)$\sim$SO($6$)/SO($5$) composite Higgs model and the applications to self interacting…
Negative signs in many-body wavefunctions play an important role in quantum mechanics. The ground-state wavefunction of double semion model on a two-dimensional hexagonal lattice contains an intrinsic sign which cannot be removed by any…
Nowadays the term 'sign problem' is used to identify two different problems. The ideas to overcome the first type of the 'sign problem' of strongly oscillating complex valued imtegrand in the Feynman path integrals comes from…
A topological quantum number, the Witten index, characterizes supersymmetric models by probing for zero energy modes and the possibility of supersymmetry breaking. We propose an averaging method to infer the Witten index in quantum analog…
We present a new approach for Monte Carlo simulations of lattice quantum spin systems which is able to eliminate the negative sign problem. Its complexity is linear in the volume of the lattice. Its efficiency is tested on a simple…
We study and simulate N=2 supersymmetric Wess-Zumino models in one and two dimensions. For any choice of the lattice derivative, the theories can be made manifestly supersymmetric by adding appropriate improvement terms corresponding to…
Quantum simulation of the interactions of fermions and bosons -- the fundamental particles of nature -- is essential for modeling complex quantum systems in material science, chemistry and high-energy physics and has been proposed as a…
The notion of the integral over the anticommuting Grassmann variables is applied to analyze the fermionic structure of the 2D Ising model with quenched site dilution. In the $N$-replica scheme, the model is explicitly reformulated as a…
We apply a new anticommuting path integral technique to clarify the fermionic structure of the 2D Ising model with quenched site dilution. In the $N$-replica scheme, the model is explicitly reformulated as a theory of interacting fermions…
We describe an algebraic algorithm which allows to express every one-loop lattice integral with gluon or Wilson-fermion propagators in terms of a small number of basic constants which can be computed with arbitrary high precision. Although…
We construct "connected" (0,2) sigma models starting from n copies of (2,2) CP(N-1) models. General aspects of models of this type (known as T+O deformations) had been previously studied in the context of heterotic string theories. Our…
We use quantum link models to construct a quantum simulator for U(N) and SU(N) lattice gauge theories. These models replace Wilson's classical link variables by quantum link operators, reducing the link Hilbert space to a finite number of…
There are supersymmetric gauge theories which do not possess any parameters nor flat directions, and hence cannot be studied anywhere in the field space using holomorphy (``non-calculable''). Some of them are believed to break supersymmetry…
