Quantum simulation of lattice gauge theories coupled to fermionic matter via anyonic regularization

Mason L. Rhodes, Shivesh Pathak, Riley W. Chien

The optimal regularization of infinite-dimensional gauge-field degrees of freedom is a central open problem in the simulation of lattice gauge theories on quantum computers. Here,…

Encoding Majorana codes

Maryam Mudassar, Riley W. Chien, Daniel Gottesman

To implement a quantum error correction protocol, we first need a scheme to prepare our state in the correct subspace of the code, and this can be done using a unitary encoding cir…

Custom fermionic codes for quantum simulation

Riley W. Chien, James D. Whitfield

Simulating a fermionic system on a quantum computer requires encoding the anti-commuting fermionic variables into the operators acting on the qubit Hilbert space. The most familiar…
