Charge transport through a nanoscale junction coupled to two macroscopic electrodes is investigated for the situation when bound states are present. We provide numerical evidence that bound states give rise to persistent, non-decaying…
We investigate the dynamics of a two-dimensional Hubbard model in a static electric field in order to identify the conditions to reach a non-equilibrium stationary state. For a generic electric field, the convergence to a stationary state…
Nonequilibrium properties of correlated quantum matter are being intensively investigated because of the rich interplay between external driving and the many-body correlations. Of particular interest is the nonequilibrium behavior near a…
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 nonequilibrium dynamics of a quasiperiodic quantum Ising chain after a sudden change in the strength of the transverse field at zero temperature. In particular we consider the dynamics of the entanglement entropy and the…
Using the persistent current I induced by an Aharonov-Bohm flux in square lattices with random potentials, we study the interplay between electronic correlations and disorder upon the ground state (GS) of a few polarized electrons (spinless…
The ground state properties of the S=1/2 transverse-field Ising model on the checkerboard lattice are studied using linear spin wave theory. We consider the general case of different couplings between nearest neighbors (J1) and…
We discuss the non-equilibrium dynamics of a Quantum Ising Chain (QIC) following a quantum quench of the transverse field and in the presence of a gaussian time dependent noise. We discuss the probability distribution of the work done on…
We study a finite spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ Ising chain with a spatially alternating transverse field of period 2. By means of a Jordan-Wigner transformation for even and odd sites, we are able to map it into a one-dimensional model of free…
The heat conduction in an open transverse-field Ising chain is studied by using quantization in the Fock space of operators in the weak coupling regimes, i.e. the coupling is much smaller than the transverse field. The non-equilibrium…
The tight binding model for an electron on an anisotropic triangular lattice in a uniform magnetic field is studied using a decimation scheme. The model exhibits a transition from critical to localized phase and the phase diagram is…
Obtaining quantitative ground-state behavior for geometrically-frustrated quantum magnets with long-range interactions is challenging for numerical methods. Here, we demonstrate that the ground states of these systems on two-dimensional…
We study the entanglement in a chain of harmonic oscillators driven out of equilibrium by preparing the two sides of the system at different temperatures, and subsequently joining them together. The steady state is constructed explicitly…
We study the time-dependent transport of heat in a nanoscale thermal switch. The switch consists of left and right leads that are initially uncoupled. During switch-on the coupling between the leads is abruptly turned on. We use the…
Many body models undergoing a quantum phase transition to a broken-symmetry phase that survives up to a critical temperature must possess, in the ordered phase, symmetric as well as non-symmetric eigenstates. We predict, and explicitly show…
We study an Ising model in one dimension with short range ferromagnetic and long range (power law) antiferromagnetic interactions. We show that the zero temperature phase diagram in a (longitudinal) field H involves a sequence of up and…
We investigate the zero-temperature quantum phase transition of the random bond Ising chain in a transverse magnetic field. Its critical properties are identical to those of the McCoy-Wu model, which is a classical Ising model in two…
We study the low-energy properties of the long-range random transverse-field Ising chain with ferromagnetic interactions decaying as a power alpha of the distance. Using variants of the strong-disorder renormalization group method, the…
We briefly review some equilibrium and nonequilibrium properties of systems with long-range interactions. Such systems, which are characterized by a potential that weakly decays at large distances, have striking properties at equilibrium,…
We present a method for investigating the steady-state transport properties of one-dimensional correlated quantum systems. Using a procedure based on our analysis of finite-size effects in a related classical model (LC line) we show that…
