Identifying and measuring the "localization length'' in many-body systems in the vicinity of a many-body localization transition is difficult. Following Hatano and Nelson, a recent work (Heuben, White, Refael, PRB 103, 064201 (2021))…
We consider the Bose-Hubbard model. Our focus is on many-body localization, which was described by many authors in such models, even in the absence of disorder. Since our work is rigorous, and since we believe that the localization in this…

Eigenstates of observables such as the Hamiltonian play a central role in quantum mechanics. Inspired by the pure Nash equilibria that arise in classical game theory, we propose ''Nash states'' of multiple observables as a generalization of…
A dynamical signature of localization in quantum systems is the absence of transport which is governed by the amount of coherence that configuration space states possess with respect to the Hamiltonian eigenbasis. To make this observation…
