Dynamics of the imbalance in occupations on even and odd sites of a lattice serves as one of the key characteristics for identification of the many-body localization transition. In this work, we investigate the long-time behaviour of the…
We investigate the probable delocalization-localization transition in open quantum systems with disorder. The disorder can induce localization in isolated quantum systems and it is generally recognized that localization is fragile under the…
We construct a class of exact eigenstates of the Hamiltonian obtained by projecting the Hubbard interaction term onto the flat band subspace of a generic lattice model. These exact eigenstates are many body states in which an arbitrary…
Constraints in the dynamics of quantum many-body systems can dramatically alter transport properties and relaxation timescales even in the absence of static disorder. Here, we report on the observation of such constrained dynamics arising…
We describe the entanglement of two indistinguishable delocalized spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ particles in the simplest spatial configuration of three spatial modes with the constraint that at most one particle occupy each mode. It is show that this…
We demonstrate that many-body localization of two-dimensional weakly interacting bosons in disorder remains stable in the thermodynamic limit at sufficiently low temperatures. Highly energetic particles destroy the localized state only…
We analyze a disordered central spin model, where a central spin interacts equally with each spin in a periodic one dimensional random-field Heisenberg chain. If the Heisenberg chain is initially in the many-body localized (MBL) phase, we…
We numerically study quantum avalanches in one-dimensional disordered spin systems by attaching two XXZ spin chains. One chain has low disorder representing a rare Griffith's region, or thermal inclusion, and the second has larger disorder,…
We analyze transport of local magnetization and develop schemes to control transport behavior in finite spin-1/2 Heisenberg chains and spin-1/2 Heisenberg two-leg ladders at zero temperature. By adjusting parameters in the Hamiltonians,…
We study the interplay between dephasing, disorder, and openness on transport efficiency in a one-dimensional chain of finite length $N$, and in particular the beneficial or detrimental effect of dephasing on transport. The excitation moves…
We use exact diagonalization to explore the many-body localization transition in a random-field spin-1/2 chain. We examine the correlations within each many-body eigenstate, looking at all high-energy states and thus effectively working at…
For a one-dimensional spin chain with random local interactions, we prove that many-body localization follows from a physically reasonable assumption that limits the amount of level attraction in the system. The construction uses a sequence…
We review recent results on many-body localization for two explicitly analyzable models of many-body quantum systems, the XY spin chain in transversal magnetic field as well as interacting systems of harmonic quantum oscillators. In both…
Like a free particle, the initial growth of a broad (relative to lattice spacing) wavepacket placed on an ordered lattice is slow (zero initial slope) and becomes linear in $t$ at long time. On a disordered lattice, the growth is inhibited…
We study the real-time dynamics of a translationally invariant quantum spin chain, based on the East kinetically constrained glass model, in search for evidence of many-body localisation in the absence of disorder. Numerical simulations…
Robust boundary states have been the focus of much recent research, both as topologically protected states and as non-Hermitian skin states. In this work, we show that many-body effects can also induce analogs of these robust states in…
We show that the one-particle density matrix $\rho$ can be used to characterize the interaction-driven many-body localization transition in closed fermionic systems. The natural orbitals (the eigenstates of $\rho$) are localized in the…
