Simulating Supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics Using Variational Quantum Algorithms

John Kerfoot, David Schaich, Emanuele Mendicelli

The study of spontaneous supersymmetry breaking (SSB) on the lattice is obstructed by a severe sign problem. Quantum computing provides a promising alternative approach. In particu…

Quantum Variational Methods for Supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics

John Kerfoot, Emanuele Mendicelli, David Schaich

We employ quantum variational methods to investigate a single-site interacting fermion-boson system -- an example of a minimal supersymmetric model that can exhibit spontaneous sup…

Exponential speedup in quantum simulation of Kogut-Susskind Hamiltonian via orbifold lattice

Georg Bergner, Masanori Hanada, Emanuele Mendicelli

We demonstrate that the orbifold lattice Hamiltonian -- an approach known for its efficiency in simulating SU() Yang-Mills theory and QCD on digital quantum computers -- can rep…

Exponential improvement in quantum simulations of bosons

Masanori Hanada, Shunji Matsuura, Emanuele Mendicelli +1

Hamiltonian quantum simulation of bosons on digital quantum computers requires truncating the Hilbert space to finite dimensions. The method of truncation and the choice of basis s…

Dual simulation of a Polyakov loop model at finite baryon density: correlations and screening masses

O. Borisenko, V. Chelnokov, E. Mendicelli +1

Computations of screening masses in finite-temperature QCD at finite density are plagued by the sign problem and have been performed so far with an imaginary chemical potential. He…
