There have been significant recent advances in realizing band structures with geometrical
and topological features in experiments on cold atomic gases. This review summarizes …

Floquet engineering is the concept of tailoring a system by a periodic drive, and it is
increasingly employed in many areas of physics. Ultracold atoms in optical lattices offer a …

Gauge fields that appear in models of high-energy and condensed-matter physics are
dynamical quantum degrees of freedom due to their coupling to matter fields. Since the …

We report on the experimental realization and detection of dynamical currents in a spin-
textured lattice in momentum space. Collective tunneling is implemented via cavity-assisted …

Large ensembles of laser-cooled atoms interacting through infinite-range photon-mediated
interactions are powerful platforms for quantum simulation and sensing. Here we realize …

The quantum dynamics away from equilibrium is of fundamental interest for interacting
lattice systems. In this work, we study strongly tilted lattice systems using the effective …

Quantum simulation and sensing hold great promise for providing new insights into nature,
from understanding complex interacting systems to searching for undiscovered physics …

We perform an ab initio comparison between nonequilibrium dynamical mean-field theory
and optical lattice experiments by studying the time evolution of double occupations in the …

We unveil an interesting connection of Lorentz-violating quantum field theories, studied in
the context of the standard model extension, and Hubbard-type models of topological …

We describe a theoretical scheme for generating scalable spin squeezing with nearest-
neighbor interactions between spin-1/2 particles in a three-dimensional (3D) lattice, which …
