Photonic simulation of quantum field dynamics — •Mauro D'Achille1, Martin Gärttner1, and Tobias Haas2 — 1Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena — 2Universität Ulm
Photonic multimode systems are an emerging quantum simulation platform ideally suited for emulating non-equilibrium problems in quantum field theory.
I will present a new decomposition for the time evolution generated by a large class of field-theoretic quadratic Hamiltonians in terms of optical elements. The peculiarity of this decomposition consists in the way the time parameter is taken into account. Indeed, for such a class, it is always possible to decouple the time evolution in time-dependent phase shifters by means of a proper time-independent symplectic transformation composed by squeezers and beam splitters.
I will conclude with physically relevant examples and applications aimed to analyze and simulate how the entanglement entropy associated to local and non-local theories spreads over time.
