Descrizione/Abstract: Quantum computing is a novel and promising way to solve problems that are extremely hard or even impossible to address with classical computers. We will discuss applications of quantum computations particularly for high energy physics but also beyond as carried out at the Center for Quantum Technologies and Applications at DESY in Zeuthen. In the talk the focus will be on lattice quantum electrodynamics (QED) in 1+1 and 2+1 dimensions. In the 1+1-dimensional Schwinger model the CP violating phase transition in presence of an external electric field is discussed. In 2+1-dimensional QED the “running'' coupling and a way to determine the non-perturbative Lambda-parameter through a combination of Monte Carlo and Quantum simulations will be addressed.
