• Abstract: In this article, we introduce a universal simulator covering all regimes of matter wave light-pulse elastic scattering. Applied to atom interferometry as a study case, this simulator solves the atom-light diffraction problem in the elastic case i.e. when the internal state of the atoms remains unchanged. Taking this perspective, the light-pulse beam splitting is interpreted as a space- and time-dependent external potential. In a shift from the usual approach based on a system of momentum-space ordinary differential equations, our position-space treatment is flexible and scales favourably for realistic cases where the light fields have an arbitrary complex spatial behaviour rather than being mere plane waves. Moreover, the numerical package we developed is effortlessly extended to the problem class of trapped and interacting geometries, which have no simple formulation in the usual framework of momentum-space ordinary differential equations. We check the validity of our model by revisiting several case studies relevant to the precision atom interferometry community. We retrieve analytical solutions when they exist and extend the analysis to more complex parameter ranges in a cross-regime fashion. The flexibility of the approach, the insight it gives, its numerical scalability and accuracy make it an exquisite tool to design, understand and quantitatively analyse metrology-oriented matter-wave interferometry experiments.

  Describing the ground states of continuous, real-space quantum many-body systems is a significant computational challenge. Recent progress was made by variational methods based on machine learning (ML) ansatzes. We argue that combining SRW with path integral techniques leads to a new formulation that overcomes all three problems simultaneously.

  We present an exact solution for the steady state of the transverse-field Ising model in the limit of infinite-range interactions. Our solution holds despite the lack of any collective spin symmetry or even permutation symmetry. It allows us to investigate first- and second-order dissipative phase transitions, driven-dissipative criticality, and captures the emergence of a surprising "spin blockade" phenomenon.

  We develop an artificial intelligence framework which combines a neural network trained to mimic simulated data from a model Hamiltonian with automatic differentiation to recover unknown parameters from experimental data. In doing so, we illustrate the ability to build and train a differentiable model only once, which then can be applied in real-time to multi-dimensional scattering data.

  Yang-Lee edge singularities (YLES) play an important role in understanding non-Hermitian phase transitions in many-body physics. We provide a protocol for observing the YLES by detecting kinked dynamical magnetization responses due to broken PT symmetry. We propose an explicit proposal for observing YLES criticality in Floquet quenched Rydberg atomic arrays with laser-induced loss.

  Unavoidable coupling of quantum systems to external degrees of freedom leads to dissipative (non-unitary) dynamics. We introduce a method to deal with these systems based on the calculation of (dissipative) lattice Green's function. We illustrate the power of this method with several examples of driven-dissipative bosonic chains of increasing complexity.

We show in exact diagonalization simulations of the one-dimensional $t-J$ model that the spinons start to populate previously unoccupied states in an effective band structure. The dependence of the spectral function on the time after the pump pulse reveals collective interactions among spinons.

  Inferring the parameters of a model based on experimental observations is central to the scientific method. A particularly challenging setting is when the model is strongly indeterminate, i.e., when distinct sets of parameters yield identical observations. We present a method for cracking such indeterminacy by exploiting additional information conveyed by an auxiliary set of observations sharing global parameters.
