报告摘要:
Simulating critical quantum many-body systems is limited by their complex entanglement scaling. To overcome these scaling barriers, we bridge tensor network techniques with state-of-the-art quantum devices. In this talk, I will first show practical applications to critical 1D models on digital quantum processors, including probing quantum phase transitions and observing non-equilibrium conformal dynamics. To address the classical contraction bottlenecks in 2D systems, I will introduce a quantum-classical eigensolver using entanglement renormalization, which is rigorously proved to be free of barren plateaus and demonstrates numerical evidence of polynomial quantum advantage. Finally, I will discuss the potential of extending the entanglement renormalization ansatz to prepare thermal or highly excited states.
