We study a model of interacting fermions in one dimension subject to random, uncorrelated onsite disorder. The model realizes an interaction-driven quantum phase transition between an ergodic and a many-body localized phase (MBL). We…
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…
The modeling of out-of-equilibrium many-body systems requires to go beyond the low-energy physics and local densities of states. Many-body localization, presence or lack of thermalization and quantum chaos are examples of phenomena in which…

Building upon an analytical technique introduced by Chung and Peschel [M. Chung and I. Peschel, Phys. Rev. B 64, art. 064412 (2001)], we calculated the density matrix rho_B of a finite block of B sites within an infinite system of free…
Strong disorder in interacting quantum systems can give rise to the phenomenon of Many-Body Localization (MBL), which defies thermalization due to the formation of an extensive number of quasi local integrals of motion. The one particle…
We develop an energy density matrix that parallels the one-body reduced density matrix (1RDM) for many-body quantum systems. Just as the density matrix gives access to the number density and occupation numbers, the energy density matrix…
