Transition to a many-body localized regime in a two-dimensional disordered quantum dimer model
arXiv:1902.04091 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevResearch.2.033154
Abstract
Many-body localization is a unique physical phenomenon driven by interactions and disorder for which a quantum system can evade thermalization. While the existence of a many-body localized phase is now well-established in one-dimensional systems, its fate in higher dimension is an open question. We present evidence for the occurrence of a transition to a many-body localized regime in a two-dimensional quantum dimer model with interactions and disorder. Our analysis is based on the results of large-scale simulations for static and dynamical properties of a consequent number of observables. Our results pave the way for a generic understanding of occurrence of a many-body localization transition in dimension larger than one, and highlight the unusual quantum dynamics that can be present in constrained systems.
