Thermalization and prethermalization in isolated quantum systems: a theoretical overview

T Mori, TN Ikeda, E Kaminishi… - Journal of Physics B …, 2018 - iopscience.iop.org
The approach to thermal equilibrium, or thermalization, in isolated quantum systems is
among the most fundamental problems in statistical physics. Recent theoretical studies have …

Rigorous bound on energy absorption and generic relaxation in periodically driven quantum systems

T Mori, T Kuwahara, K Saito - Physical review letters, 2016 - APS
We discuss the universal nature of relaxation in isolated many-body quantum systems
subjected to global and strong periodic driving. Our rigorous Floquet analysis shows that the …

Typicality of thermal equilibrium and thermalization in isolated macroscopic quantum systems

H Tasaki - Journal of Statistical Physics, 2016 - Springer
Based on the view that thermal equilibrium should be characterized through macroscopic
observations, we develop a general theory about typicality of thermal equilibrium and the …

Extremely quick thermalization in a macroscopic quantum system for a typical nonequilibrium subspace

S Goldstein, T Hara, H Tasaki - New Journal of Physics, 2015 - iopscience.iop.org
The fact that macroscopic systems approach thermal equilibrium may seem puzzling, for
example, because it may seem to conflict with the time-reversibility of the microscopic …

Time scales in the approach to equilibrium of macroscopic quantum systems

S Goldstein, T Hara, H Tasaki - Physical review letters, 2013 - APS
We prove two theorems concerning the time evolution in general isolated quantum systems.
The theorems are relevant to the issue of the time scale in the approach to equilibrium. The …

Exact quantum decay of an interacting many-particle system: the Calogero–Sutherland model

A del Campo - New Journal of Physics, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
The exact quantum decay of a one-dimensional Bose gas with inverse-square interactions is
presented. The system is equivalent to a gas of particles obeying generalized exclusion …

Quantum states of dark solitons in the 1D Bose gas

J Sato, R Kanamoto, E Kaminishi… - New Journal of …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
We present a series of quantum states that are characterized by dark solitons of the
nonlinear Schrödinger equation (ie the Gross–Pitaevskii equation) for the one-dimensional …

Lieb-Liniger model: Emergence of dark solitons in the course of measurements of particle positions

A Syrwid, K Sacha - Physical Review A, 2015 - APS
The Lieb-Liniger model describes bosons with contact interactions in one-dimensional
space. In the limit of weak repulsive particle interactions, there are two types of low-lying …

Quantum dark solitons in ultracold one-dimensional Bose and Fermi gases

A Syrwid - Journal of Physics B: Atomic, Molecular and Optical …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
Solitons are ubiquitous phenomena that appear, among others, in the description of tsunami
waves, fiber-optic communication and ultracold atomic gases. The latter systems turned out …

Interaction quench in a Lieb–Liniger model and the KPZ equation with flat initial conditions

P Calabrese, P Le Doussal - Journal of Statistical Mechanics …, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
Recent exact solutions of the 1D Kardar–Parisi–Zhang equation make use of the 1D
integrable Lieb–Liniger model of interacting bosons. For flat initial conditions, it requires the …
