Abstract
We consider the strong-coupling limit of lattice QCD with massless staggered quarks and study the resource requirements for quantum simulating the theory in its Hamiltonian formulation. The bosonic Hilbert space of the color-singlet degrees of freedom grows quickly with the number of quark flavors \(N_{f}\), making it a suitable testing ground for resource considerations across different platforms. In particular, in addition to the standard model of computation with qubits, we consider mapping the theory to qudits \((d>2)\) and qumodes, as used on atomic systems and photonic devices, respectively. We subsequently derive the resource requirements to quantum simulate the theory, for varying number of quark flavors \(N_{f}=1\) and \(N_{f} = 2\), using a first-order product formula.
期刊介绍：
Driven by advances in technology and experimental capability, the last decade has seen the emergence of quantum technology: a new praxis for controlling the quantum world. It is now possible to engineer complex, multi-component systems that merge the once distinct fields of quantum optics and condensed matter physics.
EPJ Quantum Technology covers theoretical and experimental advances in subjects including but not limited to the following:
Quantum measurement, metrology and lithography
Quantum complex systems, networks and cellular automata
Quantum electromechanical systems
Quantum optomechanical systems
Quantum machines, engineering and nanorobotics
Quantum control theory
Quantum information, communication and computation
Quantum thermodynamics
Quantum metamaterials
The effect of Casimir forces on micro- and nano-electromechanical systems
Quantum biology
Quantum sensing
Hybrid quantum systems
Quantum simulations.
