Condensed matter physics in time crystals
Time crystals are systems that reveal condensed matter behavior butin the time domain. In solid state physics properties of space crystalsare often investigated with the help ofexternal potentials that are spatially periodic and reflect variouscrystalline structures. Similar approach can be applied for timecrystals because periodically driven systems constitute counterparts ofspatially periodic systems but in the time domain. Wide class ofcondensed matter problems can be realized in the time domain ifsingle-particle or many-body systems are resonantly driven.In particular we propose quantum simulators, which promise access toprogrammable exotic long-range interactions in solid state-likemany-body systems.
