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), but its first-principles characterization remains elusive. We show that discrete non-Abelian lattice gauge theo…

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…

Qudit-native measurement protocol for dynamical correlations using Hadamard tests

Pavel P. Popov, Kevin T. Geier, Valentin Kasper +2

Dynamical correlations reveal important out-of-equilibrium properties of the underlying quantum many-body system, yet they are notoriously difficult to measure in experiments. Whil…

Nonperturbative signatures of fractons in the twisted multiflavor Schwinger Model

Pavel P. Popov, Valentin Kasper, Maciej Lewenstein +3

Gauge-field configurations with nontrivial topology have profound consequences for the physics of Abelian and non-Abelian gauge theories. Over time, arguments have been gathering f…
