Real-time-dynamics quantum simulation of (1+1)-dimensional lattice QED with Rydberg atoms

We show how to implement a Rydberg-atom quantum simulator to study the nonequilibrium dynamics of an Abelian (1+1)-dimensional lattice gauge theory. The implementation locally codifies the degrees of freedom of a Z_{3} gauge field, once the matter field is integrated out by means of the Gauss local...
