Description

Given any effective Hamiltonian possessing the mechanism of spontaneous chiral symmetry it can be mapped to an equivalent problem of several interacting spins, by means of a Bravyi-Kitaev transformation. Jordan-Wigner transformations are also discussed.

The resulting Hamiltonian is on a suitable form to be implemented on a digital quantum computer, where spins are mapped into qubits. We propose a systematic method to determine the mass spectrum of quark-antiquark bound states, and compute it to its simplest form . Some exploratory runs have been made using the IBM quantum computer.
