Abstract
Simulating quantum mechanics is known to be a difficult computational problem, especially when dealing with large systems However, this difficulty may be overcome by using some controllable quantum system to study another less controllable or accessible quantum system, ie, quantum simulation Quantum simulation promises to have applications in the study of many problems in, eg, condensed-matter physics, high-energy physics, atomic physics, quantum chemistry and cosmology Quantum simulation could be implemented using quantum computers, but also with simpler, analog devices that would require less control, and therefore, would be easier to construct A number of quantum systems such as neutral atoms, ions, polar molecules, electrons in semiconductors, superconducting circuits, nuclear spins and photons have been proposed as quantum simulators This review outlines the main theoretical and experimental aspects of quantum simulation and emphasizes some of the challenges and promises of this fast-growing field

Dynamical Ginzburg criterion for the quantum-classical crossover of the Kibble-Zurek mechanism

TL;DR: In this article, the crossover between the classical and quantum scaling of the Kibble-Zurek mechanism on a one-dimensional lattice model was investigated, and it was shown that the crossover is a general feature of critical models on a lattice, by testing their paradigm on the quantum Ising model in transverse field for arbitrary spin.

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 quantum internet

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a method for quantum interconnects, which convert quantum states from one physical system to those of another in a reversible manner, allowing the distribution of entanglement across the network and teleportation of quantum states between nodes.

Quantum Phase Transition From a Superfluid to a Mott Insulator in a Gas of Ultracold Atoms

TL;DR: This work observes a quantum phase transition in a Bose–Einstein condensate with repulsive interactions, held in a three-dimensional optical lattice potential, and can induce reversible changes between the two ground states of the system.
