We construct canonical transformations to reformulate SU(N) Kogut-Susskind lattice gauge theory in terms of a set of fundamental loop & string flux operators along with their canonically conjugate loop & string electric fields. We show that…
We demonstrate how to construct a fully gauge-fixed lattice Hamiltonian for a pure SU(2) gauge theory. Our work extends upon previous work, where a formulation of an SU(2) lattice gauge theory was developed that is efficient to simulate at…
We construct exact duality transformations in pure SU(N) Hamiltonian lattice gauge theory in (2+1) dimension. This duality is obtained by making a series of iterative canonical transformations on the SU(N) electric vector fields and their…

A Hamiltonian lattice formulation of lattice gauge theories opens the possibility for quantum simulations of the non-perturbative dynamics of QCD. By parametrizing the gauge invariant Hilbert space in terms of plaquette degrees of freedom,…
We investigate (2+1)-d Hamiltonian lattice gauge theory using a class of Hamiltonians having exactly known vacuum states. These theories are shown to have a wide range of possible classical continuum limits which differ from that of the…
Due to rapidly improving quantum computing hardware, Hamiltonian simulations of relativistic lattice field theories have seen a resurgence of attention. This computational tool requires turning the formally infinite-dimensional Hilbert…
We test a possible digitization of $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ lattice gauge theories based on partitionings of the sphere $S_3$. In our construction the link operators are unitary and diagonal, with eigenvalues determined by the vertices of the…
We present a digitization scheme for the lattice $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ gauge theory Hamiltonian in the $\mathit{magnetic}$ $\mathit{basis}$, where the gauge links are unitary and diagonal. The digitization is obtained from a particular…
We solve the Gauss law as well as the corresponding Mandelstam constraints of (d+1) dimensional SU(2) lattice gauge theory in terms of harmonic oscillator prepotentials. This enables us to explicitly construct a complete orthonormal and…
Hamiltonian lattice gauge models based on the assignment of the Heisenberg double of a Lie group to each link of the lattice are constructed in arbitrary space-time dimensions. It is shown that the corresponding generalization of the…

We present a quantum computational framework for SU(2) lattice gauge theory, leveraging continuous variables instead of discrete qubits to represent the infinite-dimensional Hilbert space of the gauge fields. We consider a ladder as well as…
Lattice gauge theories are fundamental to our understanding of high-energy physics. Nevertheless, the search for suitable platforms for their quantum simulation has proven difficult. We show that the Abelian Higgs model in 1+1 dimensions is…
Hamiltonian simulations of quantum systems require a finite-dimensional representation of the operators acting on the Hilbert space H. Here we give a prescription for gauge links and canonical momenta of an SU(2) gauge theory, such that the…
