Eigenstate thermalization and rotational invariance in ergodic quantum systems
arXiv:1906.01522 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.123.260601
Abstract
Generic rotationally invariant random matrix models satisfy a simple relation: the probability distribution of off-diagonal elements and the one of half the difference between any two diagonal elements coincide. In the spirit of the Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis (ETH), we test the hypothesis that the same relation holds in quantum systems that are non-localized, when one considers small energy differences. The relation provides a stringent test of ETH beyond the Gaussian ensemble. We apply it to a disordered spin chain, the SYK model and a Floquet system.
