Reply to Comment on "Discrete Time Crystals: Rigidity Criticality and Realizations"

Norman Y. Yao, Andrew C. Potter, Ionut-Dragos Potirniche +1

This is a reply to the comment from Khemani, Moessner and Sondhi (KMS) [arXiv:2109.00551] on our manuscript [Phys. Rev. Lett. 118, 030401 (2017)]. The main new claim in KMS is that…

Enhancing Scalability of a Matrix-Free Eigensolver for Studying Many-Body Localization

Roel Van Beeumen, Khaled Z. Ibrahim, Gregory D. Kahanamoku-Meyer +2

In [Van Beeumen, et. al, HPC Asia 2020, https://www.doi.org/10.1145/3368474.3368497] a scalable and matrix-free eigensolver was proposed for studying the many-body localization (MB…

Emergent ergodicity at the transition between many-body localized phases

Rahul Sahay, Francisco Machado, Bingtian Ye +2

Strongly disordered systems in the many-body localized (MBL) phase can exhibit ground state order in highly excited eigenstates. The interplay between localization, symmetry, and t…

Detection and characterization of Many-Body Localization in Central Spin Models

Daniel Hetterich, Norman Y. Yao, Maksym Serbyn +2

We analyze a disordered central spin model, where a central spin interacts equally with each spin in a periodic one dimensional random-field Heisenberg chain. If the Heisenberg cha…

Dynamics of quantum information in many-body localized systems

M. C. Bañuls, N. Y. Yao, S. Choi +2

We characterize the information dynamics of strongly disordered systems using a combination of analytics, exact diagonalization, and matrix product operator simulations. More speci…

Discrete time crystals: rigidity, criticality, and realizations

Norman Y. Yao, Andrew C. Potter, Ionut-Dragos Potirniche +1

Despite being forbidden in equilibrium, spontaneous breaking of time translation symmetry can occur in periodically driven, Floquet systems with discrete time-translation symmetry.…

Spin transport of weakly disordered Heisenberg chain at infinite temperature

Ilia Khait, Snir Gazit, Norman Y. Yao +1

We study the disordered Heisenberg spin chain, which exhibits many body localization at strong disorder, in the weak to moderate disorder regime. A continued fraction calculation o…

Quasi Many-body Localization in Translation Invariant Systems

N. Y. Yao, C. R. Laumann, J. I. Cirac +2

It is typically assumed that disorder is essential to realize Anderson localization. Recently, a number of proposals have suggested that an interacting, translation invariant syste…

Interferometric probes of many-body localization

M. Serbyn, M. Knap, S. Gopalakrishnan +6

We propose a method for detecting many-body localization (MBL) in disordered spin systems. The method involves pulsed, coherent spin manipulations that probe the dephasing of a giv…
