Many-particle confinement (localization) is studied for a 1D system of spinless fermions with nearest-neighbor hopping and interaction, or equivalently, for an anisotropic Heisenberg spin-1/2 chain. This system is frequently used to model…

We explore thermalization and quantum dynamics in a one-dimensional disordered SU(2)-symmetric Floquet model, where a many-body localized phase is prohibited by the non-abelian symmetry. Despite the absence of localization, we find an…

While a clean driven system generically absorbs energy until it reaches `infinite temperature', it may do so very slowly exhibiting what is known as a prethermal regime. Here, we show that the emergence of an additional approximately…

We study the localization phenomena in a one-dimensional lattice system with a uniformly moving disordered potential. At a low moving velocity, we find a sliding localized phase in which the initially localized matter wave adiabatically…

We prove that a disordered analog of the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model exhibits dynamical localization (i.e. the fractional moments condition) at all energies except possibly zero energy, which is singled out by chiral symmetry. Localization…

Dynamical localization is a localization phenomenon taking place, for example, in the quantum periodically-driven kicked rotor. It is due to subtle quantum destructive interferences and is thus of intrinsic quantum origin. It has been shown…

We say that a quantum spin system is dynamically localized if the time-evolution of local observables satisfies a zero-velocity Lieb-Robinson bound. In terms of this definition we have the following main results: First, for general systems…

Multifractal states offer a "third way" for quantum matter, neither fully localized nor ergodic, exhibiting singular continuous spectra, self-similar wavefunctions, and transport and entanglement scaling exponents intermediate between…

We consider a quantum particle in a one-dimensional disordered lattice with Anderson localization, in the presence of multi-frequency perturbations of the onsite energies. Using the Floquet representation, we transform the eigenvalue…
