Efficient Basis Formulation for (1+1)-Dimensional SU(2) Lattice Gauge Theory: Spectral Calculations with Matrix Product States

We propose an explicit formulation of the physical subspace for a (1+1)-dimensional SU(2) lattice gauge theory, where the gauge degrees of freedom are integrated out. Our formulation is completely general, and might be potentially suited for the design of future quantum simulators. Additionally, it...
