Probing quantum phase transition via quantum speed limit
arXiv:2311.18579 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.110.012466
Abstract
Quantum speed limit (QSL) is the lower bound on the time required for a state to evolve to a desired final state under a given Hamiltonian evolution. Three well-known QSLs exist Mandelstam-Tamm (MT), Margolus-Levitin (ML), and dual ML (ML) bounds. We consider one-dimensional systems that undergoes delocalization-localization transition in the presence of quasiperiodic and linear potential. By performing sudden quenches across the phase boundary, we find that the exact dynamics get captured very well by QSLs. We show that the MT bound is always tighter in the short time limit for any arbitrary state, while the optimal bound for the time of orthogonalization (time required to reach the orthogonal state) depends on the choice of the initial state. Further, for extreme quenches, we prove that the MT bound remains tighter for the time of orthogonalization, and it can qualitatively describe the non-analyticity in free energy for dynamical quantum phase transition (DQPT). Finally, we also demonstrate that the localization-delocalization transition point can be exactly identified from QSLs, whose computation cost is much less compared to many other diagnostic tools.
