• Abstract: Many-body systems of quantum interacting particles in which time-reversal symmetry is broken give rise to a variety of rich collective behaviors, and are therefore a major target of research in modern physics. Quantum simulators can potentially be used to explore and understand such systems, which are often beyond the computational reach of classical simulation. Of these, platforms with universal quantum control can experimentally access a wide range of physical properties. However, simultaneously achieving strong programmable interactions, strong time-reversal symmetry breaking, and high fidelity quantum control in a scalable manner is challenging. Here we realized quantum simulations of interacting, time-reversal broken quantum systems in a universal trapped-ion quantum processor. Using a scalable scheme that was recently proposed we implemented time-reversal breaking synthetic gauge fields, shown for the first time in a trapped ion chain, along with unique coupling geometries, potentially extendable to simulation of multi dimensional systems. Our high fidelity single-site resolution in control and measurement, along with highly programmable interactions, allow us to perform full state tomography of a ground state showcasing persistent current, and to observe dynamics of a time-reversal broken system with nontrivial interactions. Our results open a path towards simulation of time-reversal broken many-body systems with a wide range of features and coupling geometries.

  We show a kinetically constrained many-body quantum system that has a natural implementation on Rydberg quantum simulators. Despite featuring an uncorrelated infinite-temperature average stationary state, the dynamics displays coexistence of fast and slow space-time regions. Our work establishes the large deviation framework for discrete-time open quantum many-body systems as a means to characterize complex dynamics and collective phenomena in quantum processors and simulators.
