Quantum-Field-Theoretic Simulation Platform for Observing the Fate of the False Vacuum (2021)
Journal Article
Abel, S., & Spannowsky, M. (2021). Quantum-Field-Theoretic Simulation Platform for Observing the Fate of the False Vacuum. PRX Quantum, 2(1), Article 010349. https://doi.org/10.1103/prxquantum.2.010349

We design and implement a quantum annealing simulation platform to observe and study dynamical processes in quantum field theory (QFT). Our approach encodes the field theory as an Ising model, which is then solved by a quantum annealer. As a proof of...

Quantum computing for quantum tunneling (2021)
Journal Article
Abel, S., Chancellor, N., & Spannowsky, M. (2021). Quantum computing for quantum tunneling. Physical Review D, 103(1), Article 016008. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.103.016008

We demonstrate how quantum field theory problems can be practically encoded by using a discretization of the field theory problem into a general Ising model, with the continuous field values being encoded into Ising spin chains. To illustrate the met... Read More about Quantum computing for quantum tunneling.
