Time-periodic forcing in the form of coherent radiation is a standard tool for the coherent
manipulation of small quantum systems like single atoms. In the last years, periodic driving …

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 …

Quantum random sampling is the leading proposal for demonstrating a computational
advantage of quantum computers over classical computers. Recently the first large-scale …

Quantum simulators are controllable quantum systems that can be used to mimic other
quantum systems. They have the potential to enable the tackling of problems that are …

With the rapid development of quantum technologies, a pressing need has emerged for a
wide array of tools for the certification and characterization of quantum devices. Such tools …

The study of open quantum systems–microscopic systems exhibiting quantum coherence
that are coupled to their environment–has become increasingly important in the past years …

Gauge theories constitute the basis of the Standard Model and provide useful descriptions of
various phenomena in condensed matter. Realizing gauge theories on tunable tabletop …

Abelian and non‐Abelian gauge theories are of central importance in many areas of
physics. In condensed matter physics, Abelian U (1) lattice gauge theories arise in the …

The many-body physics at quantum phase transitions shows a subtle interplay between
quantum and thermal fluctuations, emerging in the low-temperature limit. In this review, we …

Using a Fermi-Bose mixture of ultracold atoms in an optical lattice, we construct a quantum
simulator for a U (1) gauge theory coupled to fermionic matter. The construction is based on …
