- Abstract: Canonical quantization has taught us great things. A common example is that
of the harmonic oscillator, which is like swinging a ball on a string back and
forth. However, the half-harmonic oscillator blocks the ball at the bottom and
then it quickly bounces backwards. This second model cannot be correctly solved
using canonical quantization. Now, there is an expansion of quantization,
called affine quantization, that can correctly solve the half-harmonic
oscillator, and offers correct solutions to a grand collection of other
problems, which even reaches to field theory and gravity.
This paper has been designed to introduce affine quantization; what it is,
and what it can do.

Dirac's canonical quantization works reasonably well in the case of conventional quantum mechanics over $mathbbRn$.
Affine quantization is an alternative method, similar to the canonical quantization, that may offer a positive result in situations for which canonical quantization fails.

We propose an analog simulator for discrete 2D quantum chemistry models based on cold atoms in optical lattices.
We first analyze how to simulate simple models, like the discrete versions of H and H$+$, using a single fermionic atom.
We then show that a single bosonic atom can mediate an effective Coulomb repulsion between two fermions, leading to the analog of molecular Hydrogen in two dimensions.

We report on experimental tests of topological defect formation via the one-dimensional transverse-field Ising model.
We find that the quantum simulator results can indeed be explained by the KZM for open-system quantum dynamics with phase-flip errors.
This implies that the theoretical predictions of the generalized KZM theory, which assumes isolation from the environment, applies beyond its original scope to an open system.
