Description

Quantum simulations provide a promising framework for studying the real-time dynamics of interacting quantum systems beyond the reach of classical computation. In this talk, we present several aspects of quantum simulations for systems of bosons, including a toy model for D-brane scattering. We describe an efficient digitization and discuss how the evolution of the wave function's mean position and spatial spread provides an intuitive picture of the scattering process. We conclude by outline possible generalization toward quantum simulations of D-brane dynamics, with potential relevance for non-perturbative aspects of quantum gravity and the gauge/gravity correspondence.
