Qubit regularization of gauge theories

ORAL

Abstract

We discuss the qubit regularization of traditional lattice spin models and lattice gauge theories. Depending on the regularization procedure, the microscopic qubit building blocks satisfy different embedding algebras. We discuss the role of the Peter-Weyl theorem in the regularization procedure, and show how this view point unifies the original D-theory idea and other regularizations being pursued recently.
