Using matrix product states, we explore numerically the phenomenology of string breaking in a non-Abelian lattice gauge theory, namely 1+1 dimensional SU(2). The technique allows us to study the static potential between external heavy charges, as traditionally explored by Monte Carlo simulations, but also to simulate the real-time dynamics of both static and dynamical fermions, as the latter are fully included in the formalism. We propose a number of observables that are sensitive to the presence or breaking of the flux string, and use them to detect and characterize the phenomenon in each of these setups.

    hep-lat 2025-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For Z2 GGFPEPS Monte Carlo in 2+1D, updating 1/4–1/2 of links per step is fastest in wall-clock time, gauge fixing generally slows convergence, and explicit spatial averaging helps the magnetic energy error.

    quant-ph 2025-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A quantum simulation framework is developed and demonstrated for energy loss and hadronization of a heavy quark in 1+1D SU(2) lattice gauge theory on 18 qubits of IBM hardware, with results matching classical simulations.

    hep-lat 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A spin-1 qutrit lattice model with a local chemical potential yields universal linear string potentials, from which string tension, breaking length, and meson mass can be extracted by DMRG.
