Nonequilibrium boundary-driven quantum systems: Models, methods, and properties

GT Landi, D Poletti, G Schaller - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2022 - APS
Recent years have seen tremendous progress in the theoretical understanding of quantum
systems driven dissipatively by coupling to different baths at their edges. This was possible …

Quantum entanglement in condensed matter systems

N Laflorencie - Physics Reports, 2016 - Elsevier
This review focuses on the field of quantum entanglement applied to condensed matter
physics systems with strong correlations, a domain which has rapidly grown over the last …

Stability and instability towards delocalization in many-body localization systems

W De Roeck, F Huveneers - Physical Review B, 2017 - APS
We propose a theory that describes quantitatively the (in) stability of fully many-body
localization (MBL) systems due to ergodic, ie, delocalized, grains, that can be, for example …

Observation of slow dynamics near the many-body localization transition in one-dimensional quasiperiodic systems

HP Lüschen, P Bordia, S Scherg, F Alet, E Altman… - Physical review …, 2017 - APS
In the presence of sufficiently strong disorder or quasiperiodic fields, an interacting many-
body system can fail to thermalize and become many-body localized. The associated …

Diffusive and subdiffusive spin transport in the ergodic phase of a many-body localizable system

M Žnidarič, A Scardicchio, VK Varma - Physical review letters, 2016 - APS
We study high temperature spin transport in a disordered Heisenberg chain in the ergodic
regime. By employing a density matrix renormalization group technique for the study of the …

Phenomenology of the prethermal many-body localized regime

DM Long, PJD Crowley, V Khemani, A Chandran - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
The dynamical phase diagram of interacting disordered systems has seen substantial
revision over the past few years. Theory must now account for a large prethermal many-body …

Two universality classes for the many-body localization transition

V Khemani, DN Sheng, DA Huse - Physical review letters, 2017 - APS
We provide a systematic comparison of the many-body localization (MBL) transition in spin
chains with nonrandom quasiperiodic versus random fields. We find evidence suggesting …

A brief history of time crystals

V Khemani, R Moessner, SL Sondhi - arXiv preprint arXiv:1910.10745, 2019 - arxiv.org
The idea of breaking time-translation symmetry has fascinated humanity at least since
ancient proposals of the perpetuum mobile. Unlike the breaking of other symmetries, such …

The ergodic side of the many‐body localization transition

DJ Luitz, YB Lev - Annalen der Physik, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
Recent studies point towards nontriviality of the ergodic phase in systems exhibiting many‐
body localization (MBL), which shows subexponential relaxation of local observables …

Rare‐region effects and dynamics near the many‐body localization transition

K Agarwal, E Altman, E Demler… - Annalen der …, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
The low‐frequency response of systems near the many‐body localization phase transition,
on either side of the transition, is dominated by contributions from rare regions that are …
