- Abstract: Rydberg atom arrays have emerged as a novel platform exhibiting rich quantum
many-body physics and offering promise for universal quantum computation. The
Rydberg blockade effect plays an essential role in establishing many-body
correlations in this system. In this review, we will highlight that the lattice
gauge theory is an efficient description of the Rydberg blockade effect and
overview recent exciting developments in this system from equilibrium phases to
quantum dynamics. These developments include realizing exotic ground states
such as spin liquids, discovering quantum many-body scar states violating
quantum thermalization, and observing confinement-deconfinement transition
through quantum dynamics. We emphasize that the gauge theory description offers
a universal theoretical framework to capture all these phenomena. This
perspective of Rydberg atom arrays will inspire further the future development
of quantum simulation and quantum computation in this platform.

We show that quantum systems undergo corrections to the quantum speed limit which, in turn, imply the modification of the Heisenberg limit for parameter estimation.
For some nonlocal models inspired by quantum gravity, the bounds are found to oscillate in time, an effect that could be tested in future high-precision quantum experiments.

We consider an ensemble of pure states supported on a small subsystem, generated from projective measurements of the remainder of the system in a local basis.
We rigorously show that the ensemble, derived for a class of quantum chaotic systems undergoing quench dynamics, approaches a universal form completely independent of system details.
Our work establishes bridges between quantum many-body physics, quantum information and random matrix theory, by showing that pseudo-random states can arise from isolated quantum dynamics.

We show how to predict and experimentally observe the emergence of random state ensembles naturally under time-independent Hamiltonian dynamics.
The observed random ensembles emerge from projective measurements and are intimately linked to universal correlations built up between subsystems of a larger quantum system.
Our work has implications for understanding randomness in quantum dynamics, and enables applications of this concept in a wider context.

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.
