Quantum computers are an increasingly hopeful means for understanding large quantum many-body systems bearing high computational complexity. Such systems exhibit complex evolutions of quantum states, and are prevailing in fundamental physics, e.g., quantum gravity. Computing the transition amplitudes between different quantum states by quantum computers is one of the promising ways to solve such computational complexity problems. In this work, we apply a 10-qubit superconducting quantum processor, where the all-to-all circuit connectivity enables a many-body entangling gate that is highly efficient for state generation, to studying the transition amplitudes in loop quantum gravity. With the device metrics such as qubit coherence, control accuracy, and integration level being continuously improved, superconducting quantum processors are expected to outperform their classical counterparts in handling many-body dynamics and may lead to a deeper understanding of quantum gravity.
