The quantum toolbox of the Innsbruck ion-trap quantum computer is applied to simulate the dynamics and to investigate the propagation of entanglement in a quantum many-body system represented by long chains of trapped-ion qubits [1]. Moreover, using the quantum toolbox operations, universal (digital) quantum simulation was realized with a string of trapped ions [2]. Here we report the experimental demonstration of a digital quantum simulation of a lattice gauge theory, by realizing (1 + 1)-dimensional quantum electrodynamics (the Schwinger model) on a few-qubit trapped-ion quantum computer [3]. We map the original problem to a spin model by eliminating the gauge fields in favor of exotic long-range interactions, which can be directly and efficiently implemented on an ion trap architecture.
