Description
Quantum simulations of QCD require digitization of the infinite-dimensional gluon field. Schemes for doing this with the minimum amount of qubits are desirable. A practical digitization for SU(3) gauge theories via its discrete subgroup S(1080) has been shown to allow classical simulations down to a=0.08 fm and reproduce thermal and glueball spectrum using modified and improved actions. Together with primitive gates and improved Hamiltonians for non-abelian gauge theories, the time is approaching where more realistic quantum resource estimates will become possible.
