Infinite multiverses and where to find them?
Anubhav Kumar Srivastava, Pavel P. Popov, Guillem Müller-Rigat +1
Have you ever watched superhero movies like Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse? Or played games where your choices create different outcomes? What if we told you that in the real wo…
When the center matters: color screening and gluelumps in dihedral lattice gauge theories
Pavel P. Popov, Edoardo Ballini, Alberto Bottarelli +4
Confinement is one of the hallmarks of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). Yet, its first-principle characterization, even in simpler models, remains elusive. Through a combination of gr…
Geometrical frustration, power law tunneling and non-local gauge fields from scattered light
Pavel P. Popov, Joana Fraxanet, Luca Barbiero +1
Designing the amplitude and range of couplings in quantum systems is a fundamental tool for exploring a large variety of quantum mechanical effects. Here, we consider off-resonant…
Quantum Simulation of non-Abelian Lattice Gauge Theories: a variational approach to
Emanuele Gaz, Pavel P. Popov, Guy Pardo +3
In this work, we address the problem of a resource-efficient formulation of non-Abelian LGTs by focusing on the difficulty of simulating fermionic degrees of freedom and the Hilber…
