Theory Seminar: February 12th, 1pm EST (hybrid)


Speaker: Ivan Burbano (UC Berkeley and LBNL)


Title: Loop-String-Hadron on a Maximal Tree: A tale of gauge invariance and flowers


Abstract: Lattice quantum chromodynamics (QCD) has already been a useful resource in the exploration of the non-perturbative aspects of QCD. Quantum computers could potentially further allow us to use the lattice in order to more directly probe its associated real time dynamics. A difficulty in this endeavor is that, due to gauge "symmetry," the naive Hilbert space of the theory is too big, with only a subspace of it being physical. A maximal tree gauge-fixing approach has been proposed in order to directly codify the physical degrees of freedom at the expense of locality. In this talk we will examine this approach through the lens of the Loop-String-Hadron formulation for SU(2) Yang-Mills theory. We will in particular highlight the different roles the resulting quantum numbers would play in a near-continuum quantum simulation.


See you on Monday.


Best regards,

Caroline, Joe, and Zheng-Yang
