We study the spreading of density-density correlations in Bose-Hubbard models after a quench of the interaction strength, using time-dependent variational Monte Carlo simulations. It gives access to unprecedented long propagation times and…
How fast can correlations spread in a quantum many-body system? Based on the seminal work by Lieb and Robinson, it has recently been shown that several interacting many-body systems exhibit an effective light cone that bounds the…
The maximum speed with which information can propagate in a quantum many-body system directly affects how quickly disparate parts of the system can become correlated and how difficult the system will be to describe numerically. For systems…
In this thesis, we have investigated the spreading of quantum correlations in isolated lattice models with short- or long-range interactions driven far from equilibrium via sudden global quenches. A general theoretical approach relying on a…
We study the non-equilibrium dynamics of correlations in quantum lattice models in the presence of long-range interactions decaying asymptotically as a power law. For exponents larger than the lattice dimensionality, a Lieb-Robinson-type…
The non-equilibrium response of a quantum many-body system defines its fundamental transport properties and how initially localized quantum information spreads. However, for long-range-interacting quantum systems little is known. We address…
We study the spreading of correlations and other physical quantities in quantum lattice models with interactions or hopping decaying like $r^{-\alpha}$ with the distance $r$. Our focus is on exponents $\alpha$ between 0 and 6, where the…
Imperfections in multimode systems lead to mode-mixing and interferences between propagating modes. Such disorder is typically characterized by a finite correlation time (in quantum evolution) or correlation length (in paraxial evolution).…
Locality imposes stringent constraints on the spreading of information in nonrelativistic quantum systems, which is reminiscent of a "light-cone," a casual structure arising in their relativistic counterparts. Long-range interactions can…
We analyze the propagation of experimentally relevant two-particle correlations for one-dimensional interacting bosons, and give evidence that many-body chaos induces the emergence of an effective diffusive regime for the fully coherent…
In quantum many-body systems with local interactions, quantum information and entanglement cannot spread outside of a linear light cone, which expands at an emergent velocity analogous to the speed of light. Local operations at sufficiently…
The light cone spreading of correlations following a quantum quench is obtained from first principles. Fully taking into account quantum and interaction effects, the derivation shows how light cone dynamics does not require peculiar…
We study the spreading of information in a wide class of quantum systems, with variable-range interactions. We show that, after a quench, it generally features a double structure, whose scaling laws are related to a set of universal…
We analyze the propagation of correlations after a sudden interaction change in a strongly interacting quantum system in contact with an environment. In particular, we consider an interaction quench in the Bose-Hubbard model, deep within…
We study general lattice bosons with long-range hopping and long-range interactions decaying as $|x-y|^{-\alpha} $ with $\alpha\in (d+2,2d+1)$. We find a linear light cone for the information propagation starting from suitable initial…
We study the spatio-temporal spreading of correlations in an ensemble of spins due to dissipation characterized by short- and long-range spatial profiles. We consider systems initially in an uncorrelated state, and find that correlations…
We investigate the spread of correlations carried by an excitation in a 1-dimensional lattice system with high on-site energy disorder and long-range couplings with a power-law dependence on the distance ($\propto r^{-\mu}$). The increase…
We consider the propagation of a single particle in a random chain, assisted by the coupling to dispersive bosons. Time evolution treated with rate equations for hopping between localized states reveals a qualitative difference between…
We investigate the spreading of information in a one-dimensional Bose-Hubbard system after a sudden parameter change. In particular, we study the time-evolution of correlations and entanglement following a quench. The investigated…
Light propagation in disordered media is a fundamental and important problem in optics and photonics. In particular, engineering light-matter interaction in disordered cold atomic ensembles is one of the central topics in modern quantum and…
