Quantum simulation of real-time dynamics in high-energy physics

Supervisor: Wenyang Qian

We will work on quantum simulation of real-time dynamics for high-energy physics problems using the tensor network and digital quantum computing approaches. We start with the Ising model to get familiarity with quantum simulation and then move on to more advanced real-time simulation of quantum field theory including lattice gauge theory relevant to topics in high-energy physics. Familiarity with quantum mechanics and programming are required. Background in quantum information science would be a plus but not necessary.
