Observable dependence and rate identifiability in false-vacuum decay of the quantum Ising chain
Boliang Yu, Ruixin Zhou, Hang Su
Extracting a thermodynamic nucleation rate from finite-time quantum dynamics requires separating observable decay from estimator and finite-size validity. We develop a multilevel i…

Entanglement spectrum ordering and flavor polarization in the two-flavor Schwinger model at vacuum angle
Boliang Yu, Ruixin Zhou, Meisen Gao
Entanglement spectra in gauge theories can encode both symmetry breaking and the organization of gauge sectors. In the two-flavor Schwinger model at vacuum angle , we find tha…
