Evolution of the magnetization after a local quench in the critical transverse-field Ising chain
arXiv:1402.1744 · doi:10.1088/1742-5468/2014/03/P03023
Abstract
We study the time evolution of the local magnetization in the critical Ising chain in a transverse field after a sudden change of the parameters at a defect. The relaxation of the defect magnetization is algebraic and the corresponding exponent, which is a continuous function of the defect parameters, is calculated exactly. In finite chains the relaxation is oscillating in time and its form is conjectured on the basis of precise numerical calculations.
