Holographic Quantum Simulation of Strongly Correlated Electron Systems

The project aimed to demonstrate a new holographic quantum simulation approach and co‐ designed quantum hardware to tackle three specific problems that fall within the broad umbrella of unraveling the physics of strongly correlated electron systems (SCES). These tasks were: (1) holographic preparation of ground‐ and thermal‐ states of correlated magnetic and electronic systems including quasi‐2d frustrated‐spin, Fermi‐Hubbard, and fractional quantum Hall (FQH) systems, (2) holographic‐simulation of long‐time out‐of‐equilibrium dynamics and (3) holographic analogs of embedding methods such as dynamical mean‐ field theory (DMFT) and density‐matrix embedding theory (DMET) to solve systems with complex structure or long‐range interactions. These tasks are prototypes for the kinds of material simulation problems of interest to BES, such as the simulation of multiferroic materials, perovskite photovoltaics and high‐temperature superconductors, that tax the capabilities of the most powerful classical supercomputers.
