Bulk Geometry of the Many Body Localized Phase from Wilson-Wegner Flow
Xiongjie Yu, David Pekker, Bryan K. Clark
Tensor networks are a powerful formalism for transforming one set of degrees of freedom to another. They have been heavily used in analyzing the geometry of bulk/boundary correspon…
Beyond many-body localized states in a spin-disordered Hubbard model with pseudo-spin symmetry
Xiongjie Yu, Di Luo, Bryan K. Clark
A prime characterization of many-body localized (MBL) systems is the entanglement of their eigenstates; in contrast to the typical ergodic phase whose eigenstates are volume law, M…
Exploring one particle orbitals in large Many-Body Localized systems
Benjamin Villalonga, Xiongjie Yu, David J. Luitz +1
Strong disorder in interacting quantum systems can give rise to the phenomenon of Many-Body Localization (MBL), which defies thermalization due to the formation of an extensive num…
Twofold twist defect chains at criticality
Xiongjie Yu, Xiao Chen, Abhishek Roy +1
The twofold twist defects in the quantum double model (abelian topological phase) carry non-abelian fractional Majorana-like characteristics. We align these twist…
Bimodal entanglement entropy distribution in the many-body localization transition
Xiongjie Yu, David J. Luitz, Bryan K. Clark
We introduce the cut averaged entanglement entropy in disordered periodic spin chains and prove it to be a concave function of subsystem size for individual eigenstates. This allow…
Finding matrix product state representations of highly-excited eigenstates of many-body localized Hamiltonians
Xiongjie Yu, David Pekker, Bryan K. Clark
A key property of many-body localization, the localization of quantum particles in systems with both quenched disorder and interactions, is the area law entanglement of even highly…
Many-body Localization Transition in Rokhsar-Kivelson-type wave functions
Xiao Chen, Xiongjie Yu, Gil Young Cho +2
We construct a family of many-body wave functions to study the many-body localization phase transition. The wave functions have a Rokhsar-Kivelson form, in which the weight for the…
