We present an exact solution of entanglement entropy for the real-time dynamics following a quench from a thermal pure quantum (TPQ) state in an free fermion system. Contrast to the usual linear growth and saturate behavior, the…
We propose that the euclidean bilocal collective field theory of critical large-N vector models provides a complete definition of the proposed dual theory of higher spin fields in anti de-Sitter spaces. We show how this bilocal field can be…
A simple conformal quantum mechanics model of a d-component variable is proposed, which exactly reproduces the retarded Green functions and conformal weights of conformally coupled scalar fields in de Sitter spacetime seen by a static patch…
Spontaneous symmetry-breaking in phase transitions occurs when the system Hamiltonian is symmetric under a certain transformation, but the equilibrium states observed in nature are not. Here, we prove that when a discrete symmetry is…
From a supersymmetry covariant source extension of N=2 SYM we study non-trivial thermodynamical limits thereof. Using an argument by one of us about the solution of the strong CP problem and the uniqueness of the QCD ground state we find…
In this paper we use an O(N)-invariant scalar field of unbroken symmetry to investigate whether an interacting quantum field at the next-to-leading order Large $N$ approximation may show signs of thermalization. We develop the closed…
The theory of real-time quantum many-body dynamics as put forward in Ref. [arXiv:0710.4627] is evaluated in detail. The formulation is based on a generating functional of correlation functions where the Keldysh contour is closed at a given…
We develop a new thermodynamic formalism to investigate the transient behaviour of maps on the real line which are skew-periodic $\mathbb{Z}$-extensions of expanding interval maps. Our main focus lies in the dimensional analysis of the…
We perform the large-$N$ expansion in the Schwinger-Keldysh formulation of non-equilibrium quantum systems with matrix degrees of freedom, and study universal features of the anticipated dual string theory. We find a rich refinement of the…
Let (M,J) be a dynamical model of macroscopic systems and (N,K) a less microscopic model (i.e. a model involving less details) of the same macroscopic systems; M and N are manifolds, J are vector fields on M, and K are vector fields on N.…
We study the cluster properties of thermal equilibrium states in theories with a maximal propagation velocity (such as relativistic QFT). Our analysis, carried out in the setting of algebraic quantum field theory, shows that there is a…
We introduce a method "DMT" for approximating density operators of 1D systems that, when combined with a standard framework for time evolution (TEBD), makes possible simulation of the dynamics of strongly thermalizing systems to arbitrary…
We continue our exploration of local Double Field Theory (DFT) in terms of symplectic graded manifolds carrying compatible derivations and study the case of heterotic DFT. We start by developing in detail the differential graded manifold…
The global symmetries of a $D$-dimensional QFT can, in many cases, be captured in terms of a $(D+1)$-dimensional symmetry topological field theory (SymTFT). In this work we construct a $(D+1)$-dimensional theory which governs the symmetries…
We generalize the idea of symmetry topological field theory (SymTFT) for subsystem symmetry. We propose the 2-foliated BF theory with level $N$ in $(3+1)$d as subsystem SymTFT for subsystem $\mathbb Z_N$ symmetry in $(2+1)$d. Focusing on…
We review double field theory (DFT) with emphasis on the doubled spacetime and its generalized coordinate transformations, which unify diffeomorphisms and b-field gauge transformations. We illustrate how the composition of generalized…
Given two copies of any quantum mechanical system, one may want to prepare them in the thermofield double state for the purpose of studying thermal physics or black holes. However, the thermofield double is a unique entangled pure state and…
The Hamiltonian Mean Field model describes a system of N fully-coupled particles showing a second-order phase transition as a function of the energy. The dynamics of the model presents interesting features in a small energy region below the…
The Keldysh formalism is capable of describing driven-dissipative dynamics of open quantum systems as nonunitary effective field theories that are not necessarily thermodynamical, thus often exhibiting new physics. Here, we introduce a…
The multi-terminal generalization of the steady-state density functional theory for the description of electronic and thermal transport (iq-DFT) is presented. The linear response regime of the framework is developed leading to exact…
