Lectures Notes:
Hands-on session:
If you have a Google account, you can run all the tutorials directly in your browser via Google Colab (click on “Open in playground”). Otherwise, you have to install Python3 and TeNPy on your laptop to run the downloaded notebooks:
https://github.com/tenpy/tenpy (or via “pip install physics-tenpy”)
