Title: Neutron studies of SrCu2(BO3)2 under extreme conditions–a fruit fly for quantum many body physics Abstract: Neutron spectroscopy offer a unique insight into the emergent quantum phases and entangled dynamics in quantum materials. A textbook example is offered by the compound SrCu2(BO3)2 realizing the theoretical Shastry-Sutherland model, which reveal a plethora of intriguing phenomena including: […]

Title: Tensor network simulation in strongly correlated systems: past, present and future   Abstract: Tensor network states are new kinds of variational wavefunctions that help us to understand quantum phases and phase transitions beyond Landau paradigm. In this talk, I will first review the major development of tensor network simulation in the past two decades. […]
