Quantum Field Theory (eBook, ePUB)

A quantum computation approach

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Quantum computing is a rapidly evolving area of research. Quantum Field Theory: A quantum computation approach discusses quantum field theory within that new perspective. The book introduces field theory models from a classical point of view, where symmetries are easy to understand. The quantization is based on methods that are suitable for quantum computing (path integral, spatial lattices and tensor formulations). Practical applications are discussed, along with recent progress for quantum computations and quantum simulations experiments. New developments concerning discrete aspects of continuous symmetries and topological solutions in tensorial formulations of gauge theories are also reported.

The book requires no prior knowledge beyond undergraduate quantum mechanics and classical electrodynamics. With exercises involving Mathematica and Python with solutions provided, the book is an ideal guide for graduate students and researchers in high-energy, condensed matter and atomic physics.

Autorenporträt

Yannick Meurice is a professor at the University of Iowa. He obtained his PhD at U C Louvain-la-Neuve in 1985 under the supervision of Jacques Weyers and Gabriele Veneziano. He was a postdoc at CERN and Argonne National Laboratory and a visiting professor at CINVESTAV in Mexico City. He joined the faculty of the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Iowa in 1990. His current work includes lattice gauge theory, tensor renormalization group methods, near conformal gauge theories, critical machine learning, quantum simulations with cold atoms and quantum computing. He is the PI of a multi-institutional DOE HEP QuantISED grant.
