In the thermodynamic limit, a many-body ground state has zero overlap with another state which is a slightly perturbed state of the original one, known as the Anderson orthogonality catastrophe (AOC). The amplitude of the overlap for two…

We study Anderson orthogonality catastrophe (AOC) for an parabolic quantum dot (PQD), one of the experimentally realizable few-electron systems. The finite number of electrons in PQD causes AOC to be incomplete, with a broad distribution of…

We investigate the statistical orthogonality catastrophe (StOC) in single-particle and many-body localized systems by studying the response of the many-body ground state to a local quench. Using scaling arguments and exact numerical…

According to Anderson's orthogonality catastrophe, the overlap of the $N$-particle ground states of a free Fermi gas with and without an (electric) potential decays in the thermodynamic limit. For the finite one-dimensional system various…

Orthogonality catastrophe in fermionic systems is well known: in the thermodynamic limit, the overlap between the ground state wavefunctions with and without a single local scattering potential approaches zero algebraically as a function of…

We study the orthogonality catastrophe due to a parametric change of the single-particle (mean field) Hamiltonian of an ergodic system. The Hamiltonian is modeled by a suitable random matrix ensemble. We show that the overlap between the…

We show that the $N$-particle Sutherland model with inverse-square and harmonic interactions exhibits orthogonality catastrophe. For a fixed value of the harmonic coupling, the overlap of the $N$-body ground state wave functions with two…

For generic mesoscopic systems like quantum dots or nanoparticles, we study the Anderson orthogonality catastrophe (AOC) and Fermi edge singularities in photoabsorption spectra in a series of two papers. In the present paper we focus on AOC…

We study the response of random singlet quantum critical points to local perturbations. Despite being insulating, these systems are dramatically affected by a local cut in the system, so that the overlap $G=\left|\langle \Psi_B |\Psi_A…

The Anderson overlap catastrophe (AOC) is a many-body effect arising as a result of a shakeup of a Fermi sea due to an abrupt change of a local potential, leading to a power-law dependence of the density of states on energy. Here we…
