Density of kinks after a sudden quench in the quantum Ising spin chain

Sei Suzuki, Davide Rossini, Giuseppe E. Santoro

We investigate the time evolution of the density of kinks in the spin-1/2 quantum Ising spin chain after a sudden quench in the transverse field strength, and find that it relaxes…

Calculating Thermodynamics Properties of Quantum Systems by a non-Markovian Monte Carlo Procedure

Yanier Crespo, Alessandro Laio, Giuseppe E. Santoro +1

We present a history-dependent Monte Carlo scheme for the efficient calculation of the free-energy of quantum systems, inspired by the Wang-Landau sampling and metadynamics method.…

Adiabatic dynamics in a spin-1 chain with uniaxial single-spin anisotropy

Elena Canovi, Davide Rossini, Rosario Fazio +1

We study the adiabatic quantum dynamics of an anisotropic spin-1 XY chain across a second order quantum phase transition. The system is driven out of equilibrium by performing a qu…

Adiabatic dynamics of a quantum critical system coupled to an environment: Scaling and kinetic equation approaches

Dario Patanè, Alessandro Silva, Luigi Amico +2

We study the dynamics of open quantum many-body systems driven across a critical point by quenching an Hamiltonian parameter at a certain velocity. General scaling laws are derived…

Effective thermal dynamics following a quantum quench in a spin chain

Davide Rossini, Alessandro Silva, Giuseppe Mussardo +1

We study the nonequilibrium dynamics of the Quantum Ising Model following an abrupt quench of the transverse field. We focus on the on-site autocorrelation function of the order pa…

Adiabatic quantum dynamics of the Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick model

Tommaso Caneva, Rosario Fazio, Giuseppe E. Santoro

The adiabatic quantum evolution of the Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick (LMG) model across its quantum critical point is studied. The dynamics is realized by linearly switching the transverse…
