Hello All,
<div><br class="ContentPasted0">
</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">This coming Monday, November 28th, at 1:00 PM (EST), Fanyi Zhao will give our next hybrid theory seminar of the Fall term. If you will be on-site and are comfortable doing so, please join us in room L102 of CEBAF Center. Otherwise,
Fanyi's seminar will also be provided virtually on our usual ZoomGov link: <a href="https://jlab-org.zoomgov.com/j/1611179843?pwd=M09CNTFpbFVZSW1IQlhIMGp3RUVHUT09" id="LPNoLPOWALinkPreview">

<div class="ContentPasted0"><u><b>Abstract:</b></u></div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">The Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model has been widely studied for investigating the chiral phase structure and chirality charge of strongly interacting matter. The study of the thermodynamics of field theories within the framework of
Lattice Field Theory is limited by the sign problem, which prevents Monte Carlo evaluation of the functional integral at a finite chemical potential. Using the quantum imaginary time evolution (QITE) algorithm, we construct a quantum simulation for the (1+1)
dimensional NJL model at finite temperatures, chemical potentials and chiral chemical potentials. We observe consistency among digital quantum simulation, exact diagonalization and analytical solution, indicating further applications of quantum computing in
simulating QCD thermodynamics.</div>
