String dynamics of a (2+1)D U(1) quantum link model on a digital quantum computer
Anthony Gandon, Alessandro Mariani, Debasish Banerjee +5
The (2+1)D U(1) pure gauge theory always exists in the confining phase, with strings of non-zero string tension giving a characteristic linear potential between static charges. Thi…
Counting gauge-invariant states with matter fields and finite gauge groups
Alessandro Mariani
Gauge theories with finite gauge groups have applications to quantum simulation and quantum gravity. Recently, the exact number of gauge-invariant states was computed for pure gaug…
On the equation of state of U(1) lattice gauge theory in three dimensions
Michele Caselle, Alessandro Mariani, Marco Panero +1
We study the equation of state of three-dimensional compact U(1) gauge theory on the lattice by means of numerical simulations, and discuss the implications of our results for the…
The finite temperature ground state energy of the confining string in three-dimensional U(1) gauge theory
M. Caselle, A. Mariani
The three-dimensional U(1) gauge theory displays a peculiar form of confinement which does not fit in the standard paradigm of effective string theory. In this work, we report resu…
