This review gives a pedagogical introduction to the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis
(ETH), its basis, and its implications to statistical mechanics and thermodynamics. In the first …

This paper reviews recent experimental and theoretical progress concerning many-body
phenomena in dilute, ultracold gases. It focuses on effects beyond standard weak-coupling …

This Colloquium gives an overview of recent theoretical and experimental progress in the
area of nonequilibrium dynamics of isolated quantum systems. There is particularly a focus …

After many years of development of the basic tools, quantum simulation with ultracold atoms
has now reached the level of maturity at which it can be used to investigate complex …

How do closed quantum many-body systems driven out of equilibrium eventually achieve
equilibration? And how do these systems thermalize, given that they comprise so many …

We review selected advances in the theoretical understanding of complex quantum many-
body systems with regard to emergent notions of quantum statistical mechanics. We cover …

The counter-intuitive aspects of quantum physics have been for long illustrated by thought
experiments, from Einstein's photon box to Schrödinger's cat. These experiments have now …

We give a detailed account of the one-way quantum computer, a scheme of quantum
computation that consists entirely of one-qubit measurements on a particular class of …

We consider the nonequilibrium time evolution of piecewise homogeneous states in the XXZ
spin-1/2 chain, a paradigmatic example of an interacting integrable model. The initial state …

This paper presents a review of the current state of the art in the research field of cold and
ultracold molecules. It serves as an introduction to the focus issue ofNew Journal of Physics …
