Beschreibung
We highlight two key experimental breakthroughs achieved using the QCCD trapped-ion Quantinuum Systems. First, by simulating digitized dynamics of the quantum Ising model, we observed Floquet prethermalization and local equilibration at circuit volumes exceeding 2000 gates, beyond classical simulation capabilities. Second, leveraging a randomized quantum algorithm, we successfully simulated the real-time dynamics of a sparsified Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model—known for exhibiting quantum chaotic behavior—on the same hardware. Enhanced by high-fidelity quantum operations and full qubit connectivity, we captured the decay of return probabilities in this fermionic system, demonstrating the potential of quantum processors for investigating quantum gravitational models. Together, these results showcase the powerful capabilities of trapped-ion gate-based quantum computers in addressing frontier questions in strongly correlated quantum many body systems.
