内容:

I will introduce the concept of analog and digital quantum simulations as a means of reproducing physical models onto more controllable quantum systems. I will explain the role of these paradigms in different quantum platforms, while providing specific examples in trapped ions and superconducting circuits. Furthermore, I will discuss the possible merge of digital and analog concepts, onto digital-analog quantum simulations, to reach quantum supremacy in current quantum technologies.
