Description

We explain how to extend the Loop-String-Hadron formalism for hamiltonian lattice SU(2) gauge theory to general graphs. We apply this formalism to provide a loop interpretation to the maximal tree gauge-fixing procedure, providing a fully gauge fixed version of the theory. This has potential applications for quantum simulations of the theory.
