Authors: Enrico C. Domanti, Dario Zappal\`a, Alejandro Bermudez, Luigi Amico
Abstract summary: Recent advances in the field of quantum technologies have opened up the road for the realization of small-scale quantum simulators. We present a scalable Floquet scheme for the quantum simulation of the real-time dynamics in a $mathbbZ$ LGT. We show that an observation of gauge-invariant confinement dynamics in the Floquet-Rydberg setup is at reach of current experimental techniques.

Abstract: Recent advances in the field of quantum technologies have opened up the road for the realization of small-scale quantum simulators of lattice gauge theories which, among other goals, aim at improving our understanding on the non-perturbative mechanisms underlying the confinement of quarks. In this work, considering periodically-driven arrays of Rydberg atoms in a tweezer ladder geometry, we devise a scalable Floquet scheme for the quantum simulation of the real-time dynamics in a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ LGT. Resorting to an external magnetic field to tune the angular dependence of the Rydberg dipolar interactions, and by a suitable tuning of the driving parameters, we manage to suppress the main gauge-violating terms, and show that an observation of gauge-invariant confinement dynamics in the Floquet-Rydberg setup is at reach of current experimental techniques. Depending on the lattice size, we present a thorough numerical test of the validity of this scheme using either exact diagonalization or matrix-product-state algorithms for the periodically-modulated real-time dynamics.

Simulating Schwinger model dynamics with quasi-one-dimensional qubit arrays [0.0]
We develop a strategy to run Schwinger model dynamics on synthetic quantum spin lattices. We show that global magnetic field patterns can drive coherent quantum dynamics of the interface equivalent to the lattice Schwinger Hamiltonian. This work opens up a path for near-term quantum simulators to address questions of immediate relevance to particle physics.

We study universal chaotic dynamics of periodically driven critical systems described by spatially inhomogeneous conformal field theories. We show that the onset of quantum chaotic correlations, captured by the Lyapunov exponent of out-of-time-order correlators (OTOCs), is set by the Hawking temperature of emergent Floquet horizons.

Hardware efficient quantum simulation of non-abelian gauge theories with qudits on Rydberg platforms [0.0]
Non-abelian gauge theories underlie our understanding of fundamental forces in nature. We take an approach where gauge fields, discretized in spacetime, are represented by qudits and are time-evolved in Trotter steps with multiqudit quantum gates. We illustrate our proposal for a minimal digitization of SU(2) gauge fields, demonstrating a significant reduction in circuit depth and gate errors in comparison to a traditional qubit-based approach.

Accessing the topological Mott insulator in cold atom quantum simulators with realistic Rydberg dressing [58.720142291102135]
We investigate a realistic scenario for the quantum simulation of such systems using cold Rydberg-dressed atoms in optical lattices. We perform a detailed analysis of the phase diagram at half- and incommensurate fillings, in the mean-field approximation. We furthermore study the stability of the phases with respect to temperature within the mean-field approximation.

Rotating Majorana Zero Modes in a disk geometry [75.34254292381189]
We study the manipulation of Majorana zero modes in a thin disk made from a $p$-wave superconductor. We analyze the second-order topological corner modes that arise when an in-plane magnetic field is applied. We show that oscillations persist even in the adiabatic phase because of a frequency independent coupling between zero modes and excited states.
