Abstract
The dynamic localization in energy space -- suppression of the absorption of energy from an external microwave field due to quantum interference -- was analyzed recently for a closed quantum dot in the absence of electron-electron interactions. Here a weak interaction is shown to lead to a finite absorption and heating, which may be viewed as hopping between localized Floquet states. The heating rate grows together with the electronic temperature, eventually destroying the localization.
