We developed a hybrid quantum-classical method to simulate complex fermion dynamics using non-equilibrium dynamical mean field theory (DMFT). This approach leverages digital quantum simulators to improve accuracy in strongly correlated systems.
Area of Science:
- Quantum simulation
- Condensed matter physics
- Computational physics
Background:
- Strongly correlated fermions pose significant simulation challenges.
- Non-equilibrium dynamics are crucial for understanding material properties.
- The Hubbard model on a Bethe lattice is a key theoretical model.
Purpose of the Study:
- To propose a novel hybrid quantum-classical scheme.
- To simulate non-equilibrium dynamics of strongly correlated fermions.
- To address the thermodynamic limit in the Bethe lattice.
Main Methods:
- Implementation of non-equilibrium dynamical mean field theory (DMFT).
- Utilizing a digital quantum simulator for the impurity problem.
- Employing a classical feedback loop for parameter self-consistency.
- Accounting for quantum gate errors.
Main Results:
- Demonstrated a viable hybrid approach for complex simulations.
- Showcased the scheme's performance in a specific example case.
- Provided a pathway for more accurate quantum simulations.
Conclusions:
- The proposed hybrid scheme offers a promising direction for simulating strongly correlated systems.
- Digital quantum simulators can be effectively integrated with classical methods like DMFT.
- The approach shows potential for overcoming limitations in current simulation techniques.
