Active lattice percolation: an apparently new universality class of percolation transitions
Vernon M. Hughes, David A. Huse
We investigate a class of dynamic percolation models on a lattice, in which connections are added and removed by a set of local stochastic rules. In particular, the removal of any…
Stable valleys in the glassy landscape of a low-density parity-check (LDPC) code
Grace M. Sommers, David A. Huse
Classical low-density parity-check (cLDPC) codes defined on expander graphs are a fundamental ingredient in the construction of good quantum LDPC codes, a recent milestone in quant…
Quench spectroscopy of amplitude modes in a one-dimensional critical phase
Hyunsoo Ha, David A. Huse, Rhine Samajdar
We investigate the emergence of an amplitude (Higgs-like) mode in the gapless phase of the D XXZ spin chain. Unlike conventional settings where amplitude modes arise from sp…
Eigenstate thermalization in thermal first-order phase transitions
Maksym Serbyn, Alexander Avdoshkin, Oriana K. Diessel +1
The eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) posits how isolated quantum many-body systems thermalize, assuming that individual eigenstates at the same energy density have identi…
Boundary-driven quantum systems near the Zeno limit: steady states and long-time behavior
Eric A. Carlen, David A. Huse, Joel L. Lebowitz
We study composite open quantum systems with a finite-dimensional state space governed by a Lindblad equation wh…
Crystalline Spectral Form Factors
Dmitrii A. Trunin, David A. Huse
We investigate crystalline-like behavior of the spectral form factor in unitary quantum systems with extremely strong eigenvalue repulsion. Using a low-temperature Coulomb gas as a…
Roughening Transition in Quantum Circuits
Hyunsoo Ha, David A. Huse, Grace M. Sommers
We explore a roughening phase transition that occurs in the entanglement dynamics of certain quantum circuits. Viewing entanglement as the free energy of a membrane in a circuit-de…
Observation of a Fault Tolerance Threshold with Concatenated Codes
Grace M. Sommers, Michael Foss-Feig, David Hayes +2
We introduce a fault-tolerant protocol for code concatenation of a generalized Shor code using a butterfly network architecture with high noise thresholds and low ancilla overhead…
Absorbing state transitions with discrete symmetries
Hyunsoo Ha, David A. Huse, Rhine Samajdar
Robust phases of matter, which remain stable under small perturbations, are of fundamental importance in statistical physics and quantum information. Recent advances in interactive…
Stationary states of boundary driven quantum systems: some exact results
Eric A. Carlen, David a. Huse, Joel L. Lebowitz
We study finite-dimensional open quantum systems whose density matrix evolves via a Lindbladian, . Here is the Hamiltonian of the isolated system a…
Dynamically generated concatenated codes and their phase diagrams
Grace M. Sommers, David A. Huse, Michael J. Gullans
We formulate code concatenation as the action of a unitary quantum circuit on an expanding tree geometry and find that for certain classes of gates, applied identically at each nod…
Molecular Entanglement Witness by Absorption Spectroscopy in Cavity QED
Weijun Wu, Francesca Fassioli, David A. Huse +1
Producing and maintaining molecular entanglement at room temperature and detecting multipartite entanglement features of macroscopic molecular systems remain key challenges for und…
Hole Statistics of Equilibrium 2D and 3D Hard-Sphere Crystals
Haina Wang, David A. Huse, Salvatore Torquato
The probability of finding a spherical "hole" of a given radius contains crucial structural information about many-body systems. Such hole statistics, including the void condit…
Quantum coarsening and collective dynamics on a programmable simulator
Tom Manovitz, Sophie H. Li, Sepehr Ebadi +15
Understanding the collective quantum dynamics of nonequilibrium many-body systems is an outstanding challenge in quantum science. In particular, dynamics driven by quantum fluctuat…
Time evolution of the Boltzmann entropy for a nonequilibrium dilute gas
P. L. Garrido, S. Goldstein, D. A. Huse +1
We investigate the time evolution of the Boltzmann entropy of a dilute gas of N particles, N>>1, as it undergoes a free expansion doubling its volume. The microstate of the system,…
Quantum and classical coarsening and their interplay with the Kibble-Zurek mechanism
Rhine Samajdar, David A. Huse
Understanding the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of a closed quantum system driven across a quantum phase transition is an important problem with widespread implications for quantum s…
Rare region effects and dynamics near the many-body localization transition
Kartiek Agarwal, Ehud Altman, Eugene Demler +3
The low-frequency response of systems near the many-body localization phase transition, on either side of the transition, is dominated by contributions from rare regions that are l…
Macroscopic and Microscopic Thermal Equilibrium
Sheldon Goldstein, David A. Huse, Joel L. Lebowitz +1
We study the nature of and approach to thermal equilibrium in isolated quantum systems. An individual isolated macroscopic quantum system in a pure or mixed state is regarded as be…
Out-of-time-order correlations in many-body localized and thermal phases
Xiao Chen, Tianci Zhou, David A. Huse +1
We use the out-of-time-order (OTO) correlators to study the slow dynamics in the many-body localized (MBL) phase. We investigate OTO correlators in the effective ("l-bit") model of…
