    Description
The orbifold lattice formulation provides a framework for quantum simulation of lattice gauge theories, enabling the explicit and analytical construction of quantum circuits whose computational cost scales polynomially with the number of qubits. This cost can be further reduced by neglecting selected terms and degrees of freedom in the original formulation, leading to two simplified versions. In this talk, we present preliminary lattice Monte Carlo results for SU(2) gauge theory in (2+1) dimensions. Our findings indicate that these simplified orbifold formulations exhibit no issues in reproducing the Kogut–Susskind limit, where the Wilson action is recovered.
