Supersymmetric Lattice Theories: Contribution to Snowmass 2022

Abstract

In this white paper we summarise the construction and applications of lattice theories possessing exact supersymmetry focusing, in particular, on N=4 Yang-Mills theory. Lattice formulations of this theory allow for numerical simulation of the theory at strong coupling and hence give a window on non-perturbative physics away from the planar limit. This has important applications to our understanding of holographic approaches to quantum gravity and conformal field theories.
