Analog Quantum Simulation of Dirac Hamiltonians in Circuit QED Using Rabi Driven Qubits
Quantum simulators hold promise for solving many intractable problems. However, a major challenge in quantum simulation, and quantum computation in general, is to solve problems with limited physical hardware. Currently, this challenge is tackled by designing dedicated devices for specific models, thereby allowing to reduce control requirements and simplify the construction. Here, we suggest a new method for quantum simulation in circuit QED, that provides versatility in model design and complete control over its parameters with minimal hardware requirements. We show how these features manifest through examples of quantum simulation of Dirac dynamics, which is relevant to the study of both high-energy physics and 2D materials. We conclude by discussing the advantages and limitations of the proposed method.
