Many-body localization proximity effect in two-species bosonic Hubbard model
Pietro Brighi, Marko Ljubotina, Dmitry A. Abanin +1
The many-body localization (MBL) proximity effect is an intriguing phenomenon where a thermal bath localizes due to the interaction with a disordered system. The interplay of therm…
Localization of a mobile impurity interacting with an Anderson insulator
Pietro Brighi, Alexios A. Michailidis, Kristina Kirova +2
Thermalizing and localized many-body quantum systems present two distinct dynamical phases of matter. Recently, the fate of a localized system coupled to a thermalizing system view…
Propagation of Many-body Localization in an Anderson Insulator
Pietro Brighi, Alexios A. Michailidis, Dmitry A. Abanin +1
Many-body localization (MBL) is an example of a dynamical phase of matter that avoids thermalization. While the MBL phase is robust to weak local perturbations, the fate of an MBL…
Thouless Energy Across Many-Body Localization Transition in Floquet Systems
Michael Sonner, Maksym Serbyn, Zlatko Papić +1
The notion of Thouless energy plays a central role in the theory of Anderson localization. We investigate the scaling of Thouless energy across the many-body localization (MBL) tra…
Characterizing many-body localization via exact disorder-averaged quantum noise
Michael Sonner, Alessio Lerose, Dmitry A. Abanin
Many-body localized (MBL) phases of disordered quantum many-particle systems have a number of unique properties, including failure to act as a thermal bath and protection of quantu…
Perturbative instability of non-ergodic phases in non-Abelian quantum chains
Brayden Ware, Dmitry Abanin, Romain Vasseur
An important challenge in the field of many-body quantum dynamics is to identify non-ergodic states of matter beyond many-body localization (MBL). Strongly disordered spin chains w…
