• Title: Strategies for the Determination of the Running Coupling of $(2+1)$-dimensional QED with Quantum Computing
• Authors: Giuseppe Clemente, Arianna Crippa and Karl Jansen
• Abstract summary: We propose to utilize NISQ-era quantum devices to compute short distance quantities in $(2+1)$-dimensional QED. We perform a calculation of the mass gap in the small and intermediate regime, demonstrating, in the latter case, that it can be resolved reliably. The so obtained mass gap can be used to match corresponding results from Monte Carlo simulations, which can be used eventually to set the physical scale.

• Abstract: We propose to utilize NISQ-era quantum devices to compute short distance quantities in $(2+1)$-dimensional QED and to combine them with large volume Monte Carlo simulations and perturbation theory. On the quantum computing side, we perform a calculation of the mass gap in the small and intermediate regime, demonstrating, in the latter case, that it can be resolved reliably. The so obtained mass gap can be used to match corresponding results from Monte Carlo simulations, which can be used eventually to set the physical scale. In this paper we provide the setup for the quantum computation and show results for the mass gap and the plaquette expectation value. In addition, we discuss some ideas that can be applied to the computation of the running coupling. Since the theory is asymptotically free, it would serve as a training ground for future studies of QCD in $(3+1)$-dimensions on quantum computers.

  We present a strategy for studying the running coupling and extracting the non-perturbative $Lambda$- parameter. We use Monte Carlo simulations and quantum computing to bridge results from small lattice spacings to large-scale lattice calculations. The procedure outlined in this work can be extended to Abelian and non-Abelian lattice gauge theories with matter fields.

  We study the power of unentangled quantum proofs with non-negative amplitudes, a class which we denote $textQMA+(2)$. In particular, we design global protocols for small set expansion, unique games, and PCP verification. We show that QMA(2) is equal to $textQMA+(2)$ provided the gap of the latter is a sufficiently large constant.

• Towards Neural Variational Monte Carlo That Scales Linearly with System Size [67.09349921751341]
  Quantum many-body problems are central to demystifying some exotic quantum phenomena, e.g., high-temperature superconductors. The combination of neural networks (NN) for representing quantum states, and the Variational Monte Carlo (VMC) algorithm, has been shown to be a promising method for solving such problems. We propose a NN architecture called Vector-Quantized Neural Quantum States (VQ-NQS) that utilizes vector-quantization techniques to leverage redundancies in the local-energy calculations of the VMC algorithm.

• Phenomenological Theory of Variational Quantum Ground-State Preparation [0.0]
  The variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) algorithm aims to prepare the ground state of a Hamiltonian exploiting parametrized quantum circuits. We show that the algorithm's success crucially depends on other parameters such as the learning rate. We propose a symmetry-enhanced simulation protocol that should be used if the gap closes.

• Simulability of high-dimensional quantum measurements [0.0]
  We demand that the statistics obtained from $mathcalM$ and an arbitrary quantum state $rho$ are recovered exactly by first compressing $rho$ into a lower dimensional space. A full quantum compression is possible, if and only if the set $mathcalM$ is jointly measurable. We analytically construct optimal simulation models for all projective measurements subjected to white noise or losses.

  We show that fixed points of the non-linear O(3) sigma model can be reproduced near a quantum phase transition of a spin model with just two qubits per lattice site. We apply Trotter methods to obtain results for the complexity of adiabatic ground state preparation in both the weak-coupling and quantum-critical regimes. We present and analyze a quantum algorithm based on non-unitary randomized simulation methods.

• Quantum Algorithms for Simulating the Lattice Schwinger Model [63.18141027763459]
  We give scalable, explicit digital quantum algorithms to simulate the lattice Schwinger model in both NISQ and fault-tolerant settings. In lattice units, we find a Schwinger model on $N/2$ physical sites with coupling constant $x-1/2$ and electric field cutoff $x-1/2Lambda$. We estimate observables which we cost in both the NISQ and fault-tolerant settings by assuming a simple target observable---the mean pair density.

  We report on experimental tests of topological defect formation via the one-dimensional transverse-field Ising model. We find that the quantum simulator results can indeed be explained by the KZM for open-system quantum dynamics with phase-flip errors. This implies that the theoretical predictions of the generalized KZM theory, which assumes isolation from the environment, applies beyond its original scope to an open system.
