Ergodic quantum many-body systems satisfy the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH). However, strong disorder can destroy ergodicity through many-body localization (MBL) -- at least in one dimensional systems -- leading to a clear…
The fate of Many-Body Localization (MBL) in the thermodynamic limit remains elusive, partly because numerical studies suffer from unexplained finite-size effects. We introduce and numerically study the charge transport capacity (CTC) -- a…
A many-body localized (MBL) state is a new state of matter emerging in a disordered interacting system at high energy densities through a disorder driven dynamic phase transition. The nature of the phase transition and the evolution of the…
Many-body localized (MBL) systems lie outside the framework of statistical mechanics, as they fail to equilibrate under their own quantum dynamics. Even basic features of MBL systems such as their stability to thermal inclusions and the…
We present a detailed analysis of the length- and timescales needed to approach the critical region of MBL from the delocalised phase, studying both eigenstates and the time evolution of an initial state. For the eigenstates we show that in…

A canonical model for many-body localization (MBL) is studied, of interacting spinless fermions on a lattice with uncorrelated quenched site-disorder. The model maps onto a tight-binding model on a `Fock-space (FS) lattice' of many-body…
Statistical mechanics provides a framework for describing the physics of large, complex many-body systems using only a few macroscopic parameters to determine the state of the system. For isolated quantum many-body systems, such a…

We investigate charge relaxation in disordered and quasi-periodic quantum-wires of spin-less fermions ($t{-}V$-model) at different inhomogeneity strength $W$ in the localized and nearly-localized regime. Our observable is the time-dependent…
Many-body localization provides a mechanism to avoid thermalization in isolated interacting quantum systems. The breakdown of thermalization may be complete, when all eigenstates in the many-body spectrum become localized, or partial, when…
We study many-body localization (MBL) in a one-dimensional system of spinless fermions with a deterministic aperiodic potential in the presence of long-range interactions or long-range hopping. Based on perturbative arguments there is a…
We propose a multi-scale diagonalization scheme to study disordered one-dimensional chains, in particular the transition between many-body localization (MBL) and the ergodic phase, expected to be governed by resonant spots. Our scheme…
Many body localization (MBL) is a phenomena that allows for the preservation of quantum information for long times. We study a variation of the disordered-Heisenberg model, which is known to exhibit an MBL phase [5][6], known as the…
