The dynamics after a quantum quench is determined by the weights of the initial state in the eigenspectrum of the final Hamiltonian, i.e., by the distribution of overlaps in the energy spectrum. We present an analysis of such overlap…

The XY model with quenched random phase shifts is studied by a T=0 finite size defect energy scaling method in 2d and 3d. The defect energy is defined by a change in the boundary conditions from those compatible with the true ground state…

By gradually changing the degree of the anisotropy in a XXZ chain we study the defect formation in a quantum system that crosses an extended critical region. We discuss two qualitatively different cases of quenches, from the…

We investigate the emergence of an amplitude (Higgs-like) mode in the gapless phase of the $(1+1)$D XXZ spin chain. Unlike conventional settings where amplitude modes arise from spontaneous symmetry breaking, here, we identify a…

We investigate the dynamic phase transition in two-dimensional Ising models whose equilibrium characteristics are influenced by either anisotropic interactions or quenched defects. The presence of anisotropy reduces the dynamical critical…
