The quantum Mpemba effect in symmetric random Clifford circuits

Shion Yamashika, Filiberto Ares, Pasquale Calabrese

The quantum Mpemba effect is the counterintuitive phenomenon whereby a quantum state initially farther from equilibrium relaxes faster than one initially closer to it. We demonstra…

Entanglement asymmetry and quantum Mpemba effect for Kramers-Wannier duality

Milo Vescovo, Pasquale Calabrese, Filiberto Ares

The Kramers-Wannier duality is the prototypical example of a non-invertible symmetry, yet little is known about its fate away from criticality and out of equilibrium. We introduce…

Universality of Measurement-Induced Criticality under Symmetry-Breaking Measurements

Angelo Russotto, Filiberto Ares, Pasquale Calabrese

We study the critical properties of random quantum circuits with a symmetry subject to local projective measurements that explicitly break this symmetry. We find that, at th…

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…

An asymmetry lower bound on fermionic non-Gaussianity

Filiberto Ares, Michele Mazzoni, Sara Murciano +3

Fermionic Gaussian states are a fundamental tool in many-body physics, faithfully representing non-interacting quantum systems and allowing for efficient numerical simulations. Giv…

Entanglement Hamiltonians in dissipative free fermions and the time-dependent GGE

Riccardo Travaglino, Federico Rottoli, Pasquale Calabrese

We investigate the dynamics of Entanglement Hamiltonians (EHs) in dissipative free-fermionic systems using a recent operator-based formulation of the quasiparticle picture. Focusin…

Inhomogeneous quenches and GHD in the QSSEP model

Angelo Russotto, Filiberto Ares, Pasquale Calabrese +1

We investigate the dynamics of the Quantum Symmetric Simple Exclusion Process starting from spatially inhomogeneous initial states. This one-dimensional system of free fermio…

Probing Entanglement and Symmetries in Random States Using a Superconducting Quantum Processor

Jia-Nan Yang, Lata Kh Joshi, Filiberto Ares +3

Quantum many-body systems display an extraordinary degree of complexity, yet many of their features are universal: they depend not on microscopic details, but on a few fundamental…

Entanglement evolution from entangled multipodal states

Konstantinos Chalas, Pasquale Calabrese, Colin Rylands

In a periodic lattice system an entangled antipodal pair state, otherwise known as a crosscap state, is a simple two site product state in which spins at antipodal sites are prepar…

Dynamics of entanglement fluctuations and quantum Mpemba effect in the QSSEP model

Angelo Russotto, Filiberto Ares, Pasquale Calabrese +1

We study the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of entanglement fluctuations in the Quantum Symmetric Simple Exclusion Process, a free-fermion chain with hopping amplitudes that are…

Entanglement asymmetry for higher and noninvertible symmetries

Francesco Benini, Pasquale Calabrese, Michele Fossati +2

Entanglement asymmetry is an observable in quantum systems, constructed using quantum-information methods, suited to detecting symmetry breaking in states -- possibly out of equili…

Quench dynamics of entanglement entropy under projective charge measurements: the free fermion case

Riccardo Travaglino, Colin Rylands, Pasquale Calabrese

We consider the effect of projective measurements on the quench dynamics of the bipartite entanglement entropy in one dimensional free fermionic systems. In our protocol, we consid…

A simpler probe of the quantum Mpemba effect in closed systems

Filiberto Ares, Colin Rylands, Pasquale Calabrese

We study the local relaxation of closed quantum systems through the relative entropy between the reduced density matrix and its long time limit. We show, using analytic arguments c…

Symmetry breaking in chaotic many-body quantum systems at finite temperature

Angelo Russotto, Filiberto Ares, Pasquale Calabrese

Recent work has shown that the entanglement of finite-temperature eigenstates in chaotic quantum many-body local Hamiltonians can be accurately described by an ensemble of random s…

The quantum Mpemba effects

Filiberto Ares, Pasquale Calabrese, Sara Murciano

The Mpemba effect, where a hotter system can equilibrate faster than a cooler one, has long been a subject of fascination in classical physics. In the past few years, significant t…

Measuring full counting statistics in a trapped-ion quantum simulator

Lata Kh Joshi, Filiberto Ares, Manoj K. Joshi +2

In quantum mechanics, the probability distribution function (PDF) and full counting statistics (FCS) play a fundamental role in characterizing the fluctuations of quantum observabl…

Entanglement asymmetry dynamics in random quantum circuits

Filiberto Ares, Sara Murciano, Pasquale Calabrese +1

We study the dynamics of entanglement asymmetry in random unitary circuits (RUCs). Focusing on a local charge, we consider symmetric initial states evolved by both local one…

Quench dynamics of entanglement from crosscap states

Konstantinos Chalas, Pasquale Calabrese, Colin Rylands

The linear growth of entanglement after a quench from a state with short-range correlations is a universal feature of many body dynamics. It has been shown to occur in integrable a…
