Contents: 0:37 Introduction - "Quantum?" "Statistical?" 2:39 How numerics helps - simulations 3:54 Finding the ground state - 3 techniques 4:19 Density Matrix Renormalization Group 5:49 Quantum Monte Carlo 10:18 Exact Diagonalization 11:19 Numerics in Condensed Matter Theory - problem: most physicists aren't coders 13:40 Julia to the rescue 17:29 Our experience with Julia 23:33 Summary 26:21 Questions 26:22 Question on using clusters; Julia is architecture-agnostic 29:41 Question: when do exact diag, want a fraction of modes or just one? 32:13 Question: Julia impact on peer review 34:25 Comment from audience, code vs paper is primary 35:16 Thanks on something 35:37 Question: Julia shortcomings?

Hope this helps

Thank you. I will work on making this project back to life. I also tweaked a bit your work.
