• Abstract: Although the Hamiltonian formalism is so far favored for quantum computation of lattice gauge theory, the path integral formalism would never be useless. The advantages of the path integral formalism are the knowledge and experience accumulated by classical lattice simulation and manifest Lorentz invariance. We discuss quantum computation of lattice gauge theory in the path integral formalism. We utilize a quantum sampling algorithm to generate gauge configurations, and demonstrate a benchmark test of $Z_2$ lattice gauge theory on a four-dimensional hypercube.

The lattice gauge theory studied is the SU(2) gauge theory in 1+1 dimensions coupled to one flavor of staggered fermions. The algorithms are shown to be applicable to higher-dimensional theories as well as to other Abelian and non-Abelian gauge theories.

All the local realisations of the free (Laplace-Beltrami) quantum Hamiltonian are examined as non-equivalent protocols of transmission/reflection. This allows to comprehend the distinguished status of the so-called bridging' transmission protocol previously identified in the literature.

• Search for Efficient Formulations for Hamiltonian Simulation of non-Abelian Lattice Gauge Theories [0.0]
  Hamiltonian formulation of lattice gauge theories (LGTs) is the most natural framework for the purpose of quantum simulation. It remains an important task to identify the most accurate, while computationally economic, Hamiltonian formulation(s) in such theories. This paper is a first step toward addressing this question in the case of non-Abelian LGTs.
