Intriguing behavior is known to emerge from quantum many-body systems,
including exotic forms of superconductivity or anyonic quasiparticles in
topologically ordered system. However, understanding these phenomena is a
great scientific challenge: The theoretical description of interacting quantum
systems suffers from the exponentially large configuration space. The
experimental detection of strongly correlated behavior is often complicated,
e.g. due to the non-local nature of order parameters in topological matter. In
this seminar, I review different approaches in which light-matter interaction
is used to probe and control quantum many-body systems, to reveal the phase
diagram of correlated matter, or to mimic such matter in highly controllable
quantum simulators.
