Course Description
Overview
Syllabus
Intro
Quantum simulation • Dynamics of a quantum system are given by its Hamiltonian
Reasons to study quantum simulation
Product formulas • Also known as Trotterization or the splitting method.
Higher-order product formulas • A general pth-order product formula takes the form
Previous analyses of Trotter error • For sufficiently small t. Trotter error can be represented exactly
Trotter error with commutator scaling Trotter error with commutator scaling A poth-order product formula .(t) can approacimate the evolution
Analysis of the first-order formula • Altogether, we have the integral representation
Nearest-neighbor lattice Hamiltonian
Clustered Hamiltonian Clustered Hamiltonian
Transverse field Ising model Transverse field Ising model
Simulating local observables • We show that local observables can be simulated with complexity independent of the system size for power-law Hamiltonians, implying a Lieb-Robinson bound as a byproduct.
A theory of Trotter error
Error types • Suppose that we use product formula 3 (t) to approximate the . We consider the active, exponentiated, and multiplicative type
