The physics of high-energy colliders relies on the knowledge of
different non-perturbative parton correlators, such as parton distribution
functions, that encode the information on universal hadron structure and
are thus the main building blocks of any factorization theorem of the
underlying process in such collision. These functions are given in terms of
gauge-invariant light-front operators, they are non-local in both space and
real time, and are thus intractable by standard lattice techniques due to
the well-known sign problem. In this paper, we propose a quantum algorithm
to perform a quantum simulation of this type of correlators, and illustrate
it by considering a space-time Wilson loop. We discuss the implementation
of the quantum algorithm in terms of quantum gates that are accessible
within actual quantum technologies such as cold atoms setups, trapped ions
or superconducting circuits.

We look forward to seeing you there!
Astrid, Christos, Filippo
