Abstract

The inverse problem of 'eigenstates-to-Hamiltonian' is considered for an open chain of quantum spins in the context of Many-Body-Localization. We first construct the simplest basis of the Hilbert space made of orthonormal Matrix-Product-States (MPS), that will thus automatically satisfy the entanglement area-law. We then analyze the corresponding Local Integrals of Motions (LIOMs) that can be considered as the local building blocks of these MPS, in order to construct the parent Hamiltonians that have these MPS as eigenstates. Finally we study the Matrix-Product-Operator form of the Diagonal Ensemble Density Matrix that allows to compute long-time-averaged observables of the unitary dynamics. Explicit results are given for the memory of local observables and for the entanglement properties in operator-space, via the generalized notion of Schmidt decomposition for density matrices describing mixed states.
