| contents | Simulating interactions between fermions and bosons is central to understanding correlated phenomena, yet these systems are inherently difficult to treat classically. Previous quantum algorithms for fermion-boson models exhibit computation costs that scale polynomially with the bosonic truncation parameter, $Λ$. In this work we identify the efficient unitary transformation enabling fast-forwarded evolution of the fermion-boson interaction term, yielding an interaction-picture based simulation algorithm with complexity polylogarithmic in $Λ$. We apply this transformation to explicitly construct an efficient quantum algorithm for the Hubbard-Holstein model and discuss its generalisation to other fermion-boson interacting models. This approach yields an important asymptotic improvement in the dependence on the bosonic cutoff and establishes that, for certain models, fermion-boson interactions can be simulated with resources comparable to those required for purely fermionic systems. |
