Abstract

Superconducting networks have been successfully employed over many decades to explore equilibrium phases and dynamical properties of several paradigmatic models in statistical mechanics. Under certain conditions, the properties of these networks are governed by the laws of quantum mechanics, therefore allowing to explore the physics of many-body quantum systems.
