Lattice gauge theory is an essential tool for strongly interacting non-Abelian fields, such as those in quantum chromodynamics where lattice results have been of central importance for several decades. Recent studies suggest that quantum…
We explore the potential of D-Wave's quantum annealers for computing some of the basic components required for quantum simulations of Standard Model physics. By implementing a basic multigrid (including "zooming") and specializing…
In this work, we present a brief but insightful overview of the gauge theories, which are defined on $ n $-dimensional lattices by using finite gauge groups, in order to show how they can be interpreted as a Hamiltonian system with…
We study a duality transformation from the gauge-invariant subspace of a $\mathbb{Z}_N$ lattice gauge theory on a two-leg ladder geometry to an $N$-clock model on a single chain. The main feature of this mapping is the emergence of a…
Just as for non-abelian gauge theories at strong coupling, discrete lattice methods are a natural tool in the study of non-perturbative quantum gravity. They have to reflect the fact that the geometric degrees of freedom are dynamical, and…
We construct lattice gauge field theory based on a quantum group on a lattice of dimension 1. Innovations include a coalgebra structure on the connections, and an investigation of connections that are not distinguishable by observables. We…
Lattice gauge theories are fundamental to such distinct fields as particle physics, condensed matter or quantum information theory. The recent progress in the control of artificial quantum systems already allows for studying Abelian lattice…
Lattice QCD in the strong coupling regime can be formulated in dual variables which are integer-valued. It can be efficiently simulated for modest finite temperatures and finite densities via the worm algorithm, circumventing the finite…
Building on the principle of combinatorial gauge symmetry, lattice gauge theories can be formulated with only one- and two-body interactions that ensure the exact realization of the symmetry rather than its approximate emergence in a…
Quantum computers have the potential to expand the utility of lattice gauge theory to investigate non-perturbative particle physics phenomena that cannot be accessed using a standard Monte Carlo method due to the sign problem. Thanks to the…
This is a review, intended for lattice nonspecialists, of the studies of the compact abelian gauge theories on the lattice performed by the Aachen lattice field theory group. We discuss in particular the pure compact QED and a U(1) lattice…
We study a lattice gauge theory in Wilson's Hamiltonian formalism. In view of the realization of a quantum simulator for QED in one dimension, we introduce an Abelian model with a discrete gauge symmetry $\mathbb{Z}_n$, approximating the…
We investigate lattice simulations of scalar and nonabelian gauge fields in Minkowski space-time. For SU(2) gauge-theory expectation values of link variables in 3+1 dimensions are constructed by a stochastic process in an additional (5th)…
The quantum link~\cite{Brower:1997ha} Hamiltonian was introduced two decades ago as an alternative to Wilson's Euclidean lattice QCD with gauge fields represented by bi-linear fermion/anti-fermion operators. When generalized this new…
In this article, we review some of the recent developments towards the future goal of quantum computing or quantum simulating lattice QCD. This includes a novel theoretical framework developed for non-Abelian gauge theories that is the…
Lattice gauge theories are fundamental to various fields, including particle physics, condensed matter, and quantum information theory. Recent progress in the control of quantum systems allows for studying Abelian lattice gauge theories in…
The properties of strongly-coupled lattice gauge theories at finite density as well as in real time have largely eluded first-principles studies on the lattice. This is due to the failure of importance sampling for systems with a complex…
Lattice Gauge Theory in 4-dimensional Euclidean space-time is generalized to ribbon categories which replace the category of representations of the gauge group. This provides a framework in which the gauge group becomes a quantum group…
A new non-perturbative approach to quantum field theory --- D-theory --- is proposed, in which continuous classical fields are replaced by discrete quantized variables which undergo dimensional reduction. The 2-d classical O(3) model…
We consider the role of the diffeomorphism constraint in the quantization of lattice formulations of diffeomorphism invariant theories of connections. It has been argued that in working with abstract lattices, one automatically takes care…
