The paper “Toward simulating Superstring/M-theory on a quantum computer“, co-authored by Hrant Gharibyan (Cal Tech), Masanori Hanada, Masazumi Honda (Kyoto University), and Junyu Liu (Cal Tech), has been accepted for publication in the Journal of High Energy Physics. The paper presents a novel framework for simulating matrix models on a quantum
computer. The prescription consists of four steps: regularization of the Hilbert space, adiabatic state preparation, simulation of real-time dynamics, and measurements. An outcome is a set of measurements and experiments that can be carried out on a quantum computer to further understanding of superstring/M-theory beyond analytic results.
