Journal ArticleDOI

Computational complexity and fundamental limitations to fermionic quantum Monte Carlo simulations

TL;DR: It is proved that the sign problem is nondeterministic polynomial (NP) hard, implying that a generic solution of the sign problems would also solve all problems in the complexity class NP inPolynomial time.
Journal ArticleDOI

Monopole condensation and color confinement

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that monopole condensation is responsible for confinement in U(1) lattice gauge theory and that this mechanism persists in SU(2) nonabelian gauge theories.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantum link models: A discrete approach to gauge theories☆

TL;DR: In this article, the elements of the link matrices are represented by noncommuting operators acting in a Hilbert space, and the configuration space of quantum link models is discrete and hence their numerical treatment should be simpler than that of ordinary lattice gauge theories with a continuous configuration space.
Journal ArticleDOI

Atomic Quantum Simulation of Dynamical Gauge Fields coupled to Fermionic Matter: From String Breaking to Evolution after a Quench

TL;DR: Using a Fermi-Bose mixture of ultracold atoms in an optical lattice, a quantum simulator is constructed for a U(1) gauge theory coupled to fermionic matter to investigate string breaking as well as the real-time evolution after a quench in gauge theories, which are inaccessible to classical simulation methods.
Journal ArticleDOI

Atomic Quantum Simulation of U ( N ) and SU ( N ) Non-Abelian Lattice Gauge Theories

TL;DR: Using ultracold alkaline-earth atoms in optical lattices, a quantum simulator is constructed for U(N) and SU( N) lattice gauge theories with fermionic matter based on quantum link models that share qualitative features with QCD.
