• Authors: Jangho Kim, Thomas Luu, Wolfgang Unger
• Abstract summary: We demonstrate how the D-wave quantum annealer can perform importance sampling on $U(N_c)$ gauge theory. In addition to causing a sign problem in importance sampling, baryon loops induce a complex QUBO matrix which cannot be optimized by the D-Wave annealer.

• Abstract: $SU(N_c)$ gauge theories in the strong coupling limit can be described by integer variables representing monomers, dimers and baryon loops. We demonstrate how the D-wave quantum annealer can perform importance sampling on $U(N_c)$ gauge theory in the strong coupling formulation of this theory. In addition to causing a sign problem in importance sampling, baryon loops induce a complex QUBO matrix which cannot be optimized by the D-Wave annealer. Instead we show that simulating the sign-problem free quenched action on the D-Wave is sufficient when combined with a sign reweighting method. As the first test on $SU(3)$ gauge theory, we simulate on $2 \times 2$ lattice and compare the results with its analytic solutions.

  Lattice QCD in the strong coupling regime can be formulated in dual variables which are integer-valued. It can be efficiently simulated for modest finite temperatures and finite densities via the worm, circumventing the finite density sign problem in this regime. As the partition function is solely expressed in terms of integers, it can be cast as a quantum optimization problem that can be solved on a quantum annealer.

We show that the threshold value $gamma_c$ is optimal, in the sense that the quadratic form $Q$ is unbounded from below if $gammagamma_c$.

We estimate observables which we cost in both the NISQ and fault-tolerant settings by assuming a simple target observable---the mean pair density.
