TLDR
In the past decade, remarkable progress in the physics of closed quantum systems away from equilibrium, culminating in the recent experimental realization of so-called time crystals, has been made as discussed by the authors.
Abstract
Over the past decade, remarkable progress has occurred in the physics of closed quantum systems away from equilibrium, culminating in the recent experimental realization of so-called time crystals. This Progress Article surveys these developments.

Structural Nonequilibrium Forces in Driven Colloidal Systems.

TL;DR: From the time evolution in the exact (Smoluchowski) low-density limit, Brownian dynamics simulations, and a novel power functional approximation, a quantitative understanding of viscous and structural forces, including memory and shear migration is obtained.

Custom flow in overdamped Brownian dynamics.

TL;DR: A general iterative scheme for the determination of the unique external force field that yields prescribed inhomogeneous stationary or time-dependent flow in an overdamped Brownian many-body system is presented.

Floquet maser

TL;DR: This work investigates the Floquet system of periodically driven 129Xe gas under damping feedback and unexpectedly observe a multimode maser that oscillates at frequencies of transitions between Floquet states, enabling a previously unexplored class of maser sensors.

Floquet topological insulators: from band structure engineering to novel non-equilibrium quantum phenomena

TL;DR: In this article, a review of methods for using time-periodic fields (e.g., laser or microwave fields) to induce non-equilibrium topological phenomena in quantum many-body systems is presented.

Many-Body Physics with Ultracold Gases

TL;DR: In this article, a review of recent experimental and theoretical progress concerning many-body phenomena in dilute, ultracold gases is presented, focusing on effects beyond standard weakcoupling descriptions, such as the Mott-Hubbard transition in optical lattices, strongly interacting gases in one and two dimensions, or lowest-Landau-level physics in quasi-two-dimensional gases in fast rotation.

The density-matrix renormalization group in the age of matrix product states

TL;DR: This paper gives a detailed exposition of current DMRG thinking in the MPS language in order to make the advisable implementation of the family of D MRG algorithms in exclusively MPS terms transparent.

The density-matrix renormalization group in the age of matrix product states

TL;DR: The density matrix renormalization group method (DMRG) has established itself over the last decade as the leading method for the simulation of the statics and dynamics of one-dimensional strongly correlated quantum lattice systems as mentioned in this paper.

Chaos and quantum thermalization

TL;DR: It is shown that a bounded, isolated quantum system of many particles in a specific initial state will approach thermal equilibrium if the energy eigenfunctions which are superposed to form that state obey Berry's conjecture, and argued that these results constitute a sound foundation for quantum statistical mechanics.

Thermalization and its mechanism for generic isolated quantum systems

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a generic isolated quantum many-body system does relax to a state well described by the standard statistical-mechanical prescription, and it is shown that time evolution itself plays a merely auxiliary role in relaxation, and that thermalization instead happens at the level of individual eigenstates, as first proposed by Deutsch and Srednicki.
