Matrix-product-state-assisted variational Gibbs-state preparation

Rui-Hao Li, Semeon Valgushev, Khadijeh Najafi

Evaluating the von Neumann entropy is a central challenge in variational Gibbs-state preparation. We introduce and benchmark matrix-product-state (MPS) assistance for classically e…

Surrogate Constructed Scalable Circuits ADAPT-VQE in the Schwinger model

Erik Gustafson, Kyle Sherbert, Adrien Florio +8

Inspired by recent advancements of simulating periodic systems on quantum computers, we develop a new approach, (SC)-ADAPT-VQE, to further advance the simulation of these syste…

Lattice study of disordering of inhomogeneous condensates and the Quantum Pion Liquid in effective model

Marc Winstel, Semeon Valgushev

In this talk, we study a scalar model with a so-called moat regime -- a regime with negative bosonic wave function renormalization -- using lattice field theory. For negativ…

Contour deformations for non-holomorphic actions

Scott Lawrence, Semeon Valgushev, Jianan Xiao +1

We show how contour deformations may be used to control the sign problem of lattice Monte Carlo calculations with non-holomorphic actions. Such actions arise naturally in quantum m…

Mass gaps of a gauge theory with three fermion flavors in 1 + 1 dimensions

Adrien Florio, Andreas Weichselbaum, Semeon Valgushev +1

We consider a gauge theory coupled to three degenerate massive flavors of fermions, which we term "QZD". The spectrum can be computed in dimensions using tenso…

Generalized Hall current on a finite lattice

Srimoyee Sen, Semeon Valgushev

Gapped fermion theories with gapless boundary fermions can exist in any number of dimensions. When the boundary has even space-time dimensions and hosts chiral fermions, a quantum…

Quantum Information Science and Technology for Nuclear Physics. Input into U.S. Long-Range Planning, 2023

Douglas Beck, Joseph Carlson, Zohreh Davoudi +98

In preparation for the 2023 NSAC Long Range Plan (LRP), members of the Nuclear Science community gathered to discuss the current state of, and plans for further leveraging opportun…

How transverse thermal fluctuations disorder a condensate of chiral spirals into a quantum spin liquid

Robert D. Pisarski, Alexei M. Tsvelik, Semeon Valgushev

For a scalar theory with a global symmetry, when a spatially inhomogeneous condensate arises when the term in the Lagrangian with two spatial derivatives has a negativ…

The Lifshitz Regime and its Experimental Signals

R. D. Pisarski, F. Rennecke, A. Tsvelik +1

We discuss the possibility of a Lifshitz regime, where the dispersion relation for Goldstone bosons and related fields has a minimum at nonzero momenta. Studies with the Functional…
