Overlap distributions for quantum quenches in the anisotropic Heisenberg chain

Paolo P. Mazza, Jean-Marie Stéphan, Elena Canovi +3

The dynamics after a quantum quench is determined by the weights of the initial state in the eigenspectrum of the final Hamiltonian, i.e., by the distribution of overlaps in the en…

Stroboscopic prethermalization in weakly interacting periodically driven systems

Elena Canovi, Marcus Kollar, Martin Eckstein

Time-periodic driving provides a promising route to engineer non-trivial states in quantum many-body systems. However, while it has been shown that the dynamics of integrable syste…

First order dynamical phase transitions

Elena Canovi, Philipp Werner, Martin Eckstein

Recently, dynamical phase transitions have been identified based on the non-analytic behavior of the Loschmidt echo in the thermodynamic limit [Heyl et al., Phys.~Rev.~Lett.~{\bf 1…

Dynamics of entanglement entropy and entanglement spectrum crossing a quantum phase transition

Elena Canovi, Elisa Ercolessi, Piero Naldesi +2

We study the time evolution of entanglement entropy and entanglement spectrum in a finite-size system which crosses a quantum phase transition at different speeds. We focus on the…

Transport through two interacting resonant levels connected by a Fermi sea

Elena Canovi, Alexander Moreno, Alejandro Muramatsu

We study transport at finite bias, i.e. beyond the linear regime, through two interacting resonant levels connected by a Fermi sea, by means of time-dependent density matrix renorm…

Many-body localization and thermalization in the full probability distribution function of observables

Elena Canovi, Davide Rossini, Rosario Fazio +2

We investigate the relation between thermalization following a quantum quench and many-body localization in quasiparticle space in terms of the long-time full distribution function…
