[Theory-seminars] Theory Seminar Monday - Henry Lamm

[Colin Egerer]

Hello All,

This coming Monday, March 14th at 1:00PM (EDT), Henry Lamm will give a (virtual) theory seminar on: https://jlab-org.zoomgov.com/j/1611179843?pwd=M09CNTFpbFVZSW1IQlhIMGp3RUVHUT09

Please see below for the title and abstract of Henry's talk.

Theory Seminar
Monday, March 14th at 1:00PM

Henry Lamm (Fermilab)
will speak about "All too well: approximating SU(3) by only 1080 group elements"

Abstract: Quantum simulations of QCD require digitization of the infinite-dimensional gluon field. Schemes for doing this with the minimum amount of qubits are desirable. I will present a practical digitization for SU(3) gauge theories via its discrete subgroup S(1080) and use classical lattice calculations to explore its viability in the nonperturbative regime. Using a modified action that allows classical simulations down to a≈0.08 fm, the low-lying glueball spectrum is computed with percent-level precision at multiple lattice spacings and shown to extrapolate to the continuum limit SU(3) results. This, perhaps surprisingly result, suggests that this digitization scheme of the infinite SU(3) group by only 1080 finite elements is sufficient for precision quantum simulations of QCD.

Have a pleasant weekend!
Caroline, Colin & Patrick

P.S. Don't forget clocks will go forward one hour this Sunday.
