Noise reduction in quantum simulations of scalar QED via qudit encodings

ORAL

Abstract

This work examines the robustness against noise for real-time simulations of quantum field theories using emulations of noisy qubit and qudit quantum computers with similar native gate sets. We will compare the robustness of the qubit and qudit encodings to demonstrate the improvements qudit based hardware could provide for small scale simulations in the NISQ era.
