Description
Quantum computing allows for the study of real-time dynamics of non-perturbative quantum field theories while avoiding the sign problem in conventional lattice approaches. Current and near-future quantum devices are severely limited by noise, making investigations of simple low-dimensional lattice systems ideal testbeds for algorithm development. Considering simple supersymmetric systems, such as supersymmetric quantum mechanics with different superpotentials, allows for the analysis of phenomena like dynamical supersymmetry breaking. I will present ongoing work applying quantum computing techniques to study such theories, targeting real-time dynamics and supersymmetry breaking effects.
