In quantum many-body physics, we aim to understand and predict the exciting phenomena emerging from the interactions of many quantum particles. In this talk I will use the paradigmatic Fermi-Hubbard model, a conceptually simple model of interacting fermionic particles, as an example to highlight different approaches to gain insights into quantum many-body problems. I will describe a semi-analytical theory, established numerical methods, machine learning techniques, as well as quantum simulation experiments, which provide detailed information about the quantum state of the system. A particular focus will be on how to combine these different approaches to learn as much as possible about the system of interest, for example through new observables and modified microscopic models.
