Diffusive Relaxation of Participation Entropy in U(1)-symmetric Dynamics
Hanchen Liu, Tianci Zhou, Xiao Chen
Participation entropy (PE) quantifies the spread of a many-body wavefunction across configuration space. While PE relaxes rapidly in generic chaotic systems, we show that $\mathrm{…
Low Rank Structure of the Reduced Transition Matrix
Cathy Li, Bruno Bertini, Katja Klobas +1
The influence-matrix formalism provides an alternative route to the classical simulation of quantum dynamics. Because influence matrices retain information only about the effective…
Probing the Critical Point (CritPt) of AI Reasoning: a Frontier Physics Research Benchmark
Minhui Zhu, Minyang Tian, Xiaocheng Yang +61
While large language models (LLMs) with reasoning capabilities are progressing rapidly on high-school math competitions and coding, can they reason effectively through complex, ope…
Anomalous transport in non-integrable classical field theories
Matija Koterle, Tomaz Prosen, Tianci Zhou
Anomalous KPZ spin transport is well established in integrable non-Abelian lattice models but has not been investigated in continuum field theories as discretization in numerics ge…
An efficient algorithm to compute entanglement in states with low magic
ChunJun Cao, Gong Cheng, Tianci Zhou
A bottleneck for analyzing the interplay between magic and entanglement is the computation of these quantities in highly entangled quantum many-body magic states. Efficient extract…
Operator Spreading, Duality, and the Noisy Long-Range FKPP Equation
Tianci Zhou, Ãric Brunet, Xiaolin Qi
Operator spreading provides a new characterization of quantum chaos beyond the semi-classical limit. There are two complementary views of how the characteristic size of an operator…
