Title 

From analog to computational quantum simulation with neutral atoms

Abstract

Neutral-atom quantum simulators in optical lattices have become powerful tools for exploring complex many-body physics. Operating with hundreds to thousands of controllable atoms, they enable precise studies of strongly correlated and out-of-equilibrium systems. This talk highlights two emerging directions: (i) digital control for flexible state preparation and readout, and (ii) simulation of topological phases and 2D lattice gauge theories
