Explore the concept of Quantum State-Generating Machines in this 42-minute lecture by Sarang Gopalakrishnan, presented at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Delve into the complex world of periodically and quasi-periodically driven quantum systems, part of a program bringing together experts in closed quantum systems, open quantum systems, and gauge theory. Gain insights into cutting-edge topics such as terahertz and infrared driven quantum matter, shaken optical lattices, Floquet time crystals, and localization-delocalization physics in quasi-periodically driven systems. Discover the valuable interplay between theory and experiment in quantum simulation and its importance in interpreting results beyond the capabilities of brute force numerical calculations.
