• Abstract: Previous work [SciPost Phys. 14, 129 (2023)] has demonstrated that quantum simulation of abelian lattice gauge theories (Wegner models including the toric code in a limit) in general dimensions can be achieved by local adaptive measurements on symmetry-protected topological (SPT) states with higher-form generalized global symmetries. The entanglement structure of the resource SPT state reflects the geometric structure of the gauge theory. In this work, we explicitly demonstrate the anomaly inflow mechanism between the deconfining phase of the simulated gauge theory on the boundary and the SPT state in the bulk, by showing that the anomalous gauge variation of the boundary state obtained by bulk measurement matches that of the bulk theory. Moreover, we construct the resource state and the measurement pattern for the measurement-based quantum simulation of a lattice gauge theory with a matter field (Fradkin-Shenker model), where a simple scheme to protect gauge invariance of the simulated state against errors is proposed. We further consider taking an overlap between the wave function of the resource state for lattice gauge theories and that of a parameterized product state, and we derive precise dualities between partition functions with insertion of defects corresponding to gauging higher-form global symmetries, as well as measurement-induced phases where states induced by a partial overlap possess different (symmetry-protected) topological orders. Measurement-assisted operators to dualize quantum Hamiltonians of lattice gauge theories and their non-invertibility are also presented.

  We leverage the interplay between gapped phases and dualities of symmetric one-dimensional quantum lattice models. For every phase in the phase diagram, the dual representation of the ground state that breaks all symmetries minimises both the entanglement entropy and the required number of variational parameters. Our work testifies to the usefulness of generalised non-invertible symmetries and their formal category theoretic description for the nuts and bolts simulation of strongly correlated systems.

  An entanglement measure based on the Fubini-Study metric has been recently introduced by Cocchiarella and co-workers. We present the Gaussian Entanglement Measure (GEM), a generalization of geometric entanglement measure for multimode Gaussian states. By providing a computable multipartite entanglement measure for systems with a large number of degrees of freedom, we show that our definition can be used to obtain insights into a free bosonic field theory.

We discuss masked autoregressive with tractable and unbiased Jacobian determinants, a key ingredient for scalable and exact flow-based sampling algorithms. For concreteness, results from a proof-of-principle application to SU(3) gauge theory in four space-time dimensions are reported.

  Key aspects of the AdS/CFT correspondence can be captured in terms of tensor network models on hyperbolic lattices. For tensors fulfilling the matchgate constraint, these have previously been shown to produce disordered boundary states. We show that these Hamiltonians exhibit multi-scale quasiperiodic symmetries captured by an analytical toy model.

  The eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) offers a universal mechanism for the approach to equilibrium of closed quantum many-body systems. Here, we propose a theory-independent route to probe the full ETH in quantum simulators by observing the emergence of fluctuation-dissipation relations. Our work presents a theory-independent way to characterize thermalization in quantum simulators and paves the way to quantum simulate condensed matter pump-probe experiments.
