Transport and integrability-breaking in non-Hermitian many-body quantum systems

Dylan E. Mahoney, Jonas Richter

Describing open quantum systems in terms of effective non-Hermitian Hamiltonians gives rise to non-unitary time evolution. In this paper, we study the impact of non-unitary dynamic…

Lindblad dynamics from spatio-temporal correlation functions in nonintegrable spin-1/2 chains with different boundary conditions

Markus Kraft, Jonas Richter, Fengping Jin +6

We investigate the Lindblad equation in the context of boundary-driven magnetization transport in spin- chains. Our central question is whether the nonequilibrium steady state…

Hydrodynamics in long-range interacting systems with center-of-mass conservation

Alan Morningstar, Nicholas O'Dea, Jonas Richter

In systems with a conserved density, the additional conservation of the center of mass (dipole moment) has been shown to slow down the associated hydrodynamics. At the same time, l…

Spin-1/2 XXZ chain coupled to two Lindblad baths: Constructing nonequilibrium steady states from equilibrium correlation functions

Tjark Heitmann, Jonas Richter, Fengping Jin +7

State-of-the-art approaches to extract transport coefficients of many-body quantum systems broadly fall into two categories: (i) they target the linear-response regime in terms of…

Real-time broadening of bath-induced density profiles from closed-system correlation functions

Tjark Heitmann, Jonas Richter, Jacek Herbrych +2

The Lindblad master equation is one of the main approaches to open quantum systems. While it has been widely applied in the context of condensed matter systems to study properties…

Absence of localization in two-dimensional Clifford circuits

Tom Farshi, Jonas Richter, Daniele Toniolo +2

We analyze a Floquet circuit with random Clifford gates in one and two spatial dimensions. By using random graphs and methods from percolation theory, we prove in the two dimension…

Spatiotemporal dynamics of classical and quantum density profiles in low-dimensional spin systems

Tjark Heitmann, Jonas Richter, Fengping Jin +3

We provide a detailed comparison between the dynamics of high-temperature spatiotemporal correlation functions in quantum and classical spin models. In the quantum case, our large-…

Transport and entanglement growth in long-range random Clifford circuits

Jonas Richter, Oliver Lunt, Arijeet Pal

Conservation laws can constrain entanglement dynamics in isolated quantum systems, manifest in a slowdown of higher Rényi entropies. Here, we explore this phenomenon in a class of…

Many-body localization and delocalization dynamics in the thermodynamic limit

Jonas Richter, Arijeet Pal

Disordered quantum systems undergoing a many-body localization (MBL) transition fail to reach thermal equilibrium under their own dynamics. Distinguishing between asymptotically lo…

Quantum simulation using noisy unitary circuits and measurements

Oliver Lunt, Jonas Richter, Arijeet Pal

Many-body quantum systems are notoriously hard to study theoretically due to the exponential growth of their Hilbert space. It is also challenging to probe the quantum correlations…

Eigenstate thermalization hypothesis and its deviations from random-matrix theory beyond the thermalization time

Jiaozi Wang, Mats H. Lamann, Jonas Richter +3

The Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis (ETH) explains emergence of the thermodynamic equilibrium by assuming a particular structure of observable's matrix elements in the energy…

Anomalous hydrodynamics in a class of scarred frustration-free Hamiltonians

Jonas Richter, Arijeet Pal

Atypical eigenstates in the form of quantum scars and fragmentation of Hilbert space due to conservation laws provide obstructions to thermalization in the absence of disorder. In…

Quantum versus Classical Dynamics in Spin Models: Chains, Ladders, and Square Lattices

Dennis Schubert, Jonas Richter, Fengping Jin +3

We present a comprehensive comparison of spin and energy dynamics in quantum and classical spin models on different geometries, ranging from one-dimensional chains, over quasi-one-…

Quantum scars and bulk coherence in a symmetry-protected topological phase

Jared Jeyaretnam, Jonas Richter, Arijeet Pal

Formation of quantum scars in many-body systems provides a novel mechanism for enhancing coherence of weakly entangled states. At the same time, coherence of edge modes in certain…

Nontrivial damping of quantum many-body dynamics

Tjark Heitmann, Jonas Richter, Jochen Gemmer +1

Understanding how the dynamics of a given quantum system with many degrees of freedom is altered by the presence of a generic perturbation is a notoriously difficult question. Rece…

Simulating hydrodynamics on noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices with random circuits

Jonas Richter, Arijeet Pal

In a recent milestone experiment, Google's processor Sycamore heralded the era of "quantum supremacy" by sampling from the output of (pseudo-)random circuits. We show that such ran…
