Boundary quenches in (1+1)-dimensional conformal field theory
Michele Fossati, Colin Rylands, Eytan Grosfeld +2
We investigate a class of local quantum quenches in which the conformal boundary condition of a (1+1)-dimensional conformal field theory is abruptly changed. We derive a remarkably…
Asymmetry dynamics and nonequilibrium symmetry-breaking phase transitions
Liv Hammer, Colin Rylands, Federico Carollo
In classical settings, the Mpemba effect occurs when a hotter system cools faster than an initially colder one. In quantum systems, this effect can be reinterpreted exploiting the…
Initial State Memory in Finite Random Brickwork Circuits
Jakob Bannister, Katja Klobas, Colin Rylands +1
We ask under what conditions a finite brickwork circuit of random gates retains local information about the initial state. To answer this question we measure the averaged Frobenius…
