Dynamics in strongly disordered system
Under strong disorder, the coherent dynamics of a quantum system may be qualitatively different from that of a clean system. Recent developments of many-body localization suggest that the dynamics of such systems may be rather simpler than solving a full quantum problem and sometimes even controllable thanks to its localized nature. We study the nature of dynamics in such systems in both theory and experiments.

Control and tomography of many-body Hamiltonian
One of the most outstanding challenges in the experimental study of quantum many-body dynamics is the difficulty of realizing systems with a desired Hamiltonian. Also, even if such a system is built, the “in vivo” characterization of its Hamiltonian remains non-trivial. We study the theoretical tool sets to circumvent theses difficulties.
