Analog quantum simulations offer a powerful route to study real-time dynamics in systems such as lattice gauge theories or quantum synchronization of nonlinear oscillators. However, these simulations require interaction strengths to exceed decoherence rates by a large margin. Our approach to address this challenge is to encode the system degrees of freedom in high-Q bosonic modes and activating strong parametric interactions in an all-to-all-connected multimode architecture coupled to a superconducting qubit. By applying a microwave drive, we use a qubit-mediated fourth-order parametric process to realize a three-bosonic-mode interaction with a hopping rate of J/2π > 50 kHz, significantly larger than typical decay rates in high-purity aluminum cavities [1]. Our multimode architecture allows for in-situ connectivity that enables simulations of high-dimensional systems, such as a (2+1)D lattice formulation of the Schwinger model. In this talk, I will discuss our progress towards implementing analog quantum simulations with parametrically-activated bosonic-mode interactions.
