Entanglement entropy: holography and renormalization group

T Nishioka - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2018 - APS
Entanglement entropy plays a variety of roles in quantum field theory, including the

Operator spreading in random unitary circuits

A Nahum, S Vijay, J Haah - Physical Review X, 2018 - APS
Random quantum circuits yield minimally structured models for chaotic quantum dynamics,
which are able to capture, for example, universal properties of entanglement growth. We …

Quantum entanglement growth under random unitary dynamics

A Nahum, J Ruhman, S Vijay, J Haah - Physical Review X, 2017 - APS
Characterizing how entanglement grows with time in a many-body system, for example, after
a quantum quench, is a key problem in nonequilibrium quantum physics. We study this …

Mixed-state entanglement from local randomized measurements

A Elben, R Kueng, HY Huang, R van Bijnen, C Kokail… - Physical Review Letters, 2020 - APS
We propose a method for detecting bipartite entanglement in a many-body mixed state
based on estimating moments of the partially transposed density matrix. The estimates are …

Quench dynamics and relaxation in isolated integrable quantum spin chains

FHL Essler, M Fagotti - Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
We review the dynamics after quantum quenches in integrable quantum spin chains. We
give a pedagogical introduction to relaxation in isolated quantum systems, and discuss the …

Solution of a minimal model for many-body quantum chaos

A Chan, A De Luca, JT Chalker - Physical Review X, 2018 - APS
We solve a minimal model for an ergodic phase in a spatially extended quantum many-body
system. The model consists of a chain of sites with nearest-neighbor coupling under Floquet …

Quantum complexity and topological phases of matter

P Caputa, S Liu - Physical Review B, 2022 - APS
In this work, we find that the complexity of quantum many-body states, defined as a spread in
the Krylov basis, may serve as a probe that distinguishes topological phases of matter. We …

Entanglement and thermodynamics after a quantum quench in integrable systems

V Alba, P Calabrese - … of the National Academy of Sciences, 2017 - National Acad Sciences
Entanglement and entropy are key concepts standing at the foundations of quantum and
statistical mechanics. Recently, the study of quantum quenches revealed that these …
