We develop a theory of classical complexity. We study the relations between classical complexity and entropy, and conjecture that in an isolated system, classical absolute complexity always tends to grow, until it reaches its maximum. We…

Strongly interacting quantum many-body systems are expected to thermalize, however, some evade thermalization due to symmetries. Quantum synchronization provides one such example of ergodicity breaking, but previous studies have focused on…

We show that the characteristic function of the probability distribution associated with the change of an observable in a two-point measurement protocol with a perturbation can be written as an auto-correlation function between an initial…

In this work, we find that the complexity of quantum many-body states, defined as a spread in the Krylov basis, may serve as a new probe that distinguishes topological phases of matter. We illustrate this analytically in one of the…

We initiate a study of the complexity of quantum field theories (QFTs) by proposing a measure of information contained in a QFT and its observables. We show that from minimal assertions, one is naturally led to measure complexity by two…

We present an iterative generalisation of the quantum subspace expansion algorithm used with a Krylov basis. The iterative construction connects a sequence of subspaces via their lowest energy states. Diagonalising a Hamiltonian in a given…

In a topological dynamical system the complexity of an orbit is a measure of the amount of information (algorithmic information content) that is necessary to describe the orbit. This indicator is invariant up to topological conjugation. We…

We investigate minimal two-body Hamiltonians with random interactions that generate spectra resembling those of Gaussian random matrices, a phenomenon we term quadratic quantum chaos. Unlike integrable two-body fermionic systems, the…

We investigate the role of a statistical complexity measure to assign equilibration in isolated quantum systems. While unitary dynamics preserve global purity, expectation values of observables often exhibit equilibration-like behavior,…
