Analog Circuit-QED Simulator of Quantum Spin Dynamics Through the Extended Bose-Hubbard Model

Abstract

We propose and validate a framework for analog simulation of the Heisenberg spin model using a circuit quantum electrodynamics (circuit-QED) platform. To this end, we develop a continuous family of deformed boson representations of the SU(2) algebra, which includes the Holstein-Primakoff and Dyson-Maleev transformations as special cases. For spin-1/2 systems, we introduce a procedure to circumvent the inherent non-Hermiticity of the representation, showing that this entire family yields the extended Bose-Hubbard (EBH) Hamiltonian. For the experimental realization of this EBH model, we design a scalable circuit-QED architecture based on an engineered Josephson junction array. Numerical simulations confirm that the microwave photon dynamics in this simulator accurately reproduces the original spin dynamics. Our work establishes an experimentally accessible method for investigating complex quantum spin dynamics in a highly controllable bosonic setting.
