Coherent and dissipative dynamics at quantum phase transitions

D Rossini, E Vicari - Physics Reports, 2021 - Elsevier
The many-body physics at quantum phase transitions shows a subtle interplay between
quantum and thermal fluctuations, emerging in the low-temperature limit. In this review, we …

Conformal field theory out of equilibrium: a review

D Bernard, B Doyon - Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
We provide a pedagogical review of the main ideas and results in non-equilibrium conformal
field theory and connected subjects. These concern the understanding of quantum transport …

Generalized Gibbs ensemble in integrable lattice models

L Vidmar, M Rigol - Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
The generalized Gibbs ensemble (GGE) was introduced ten years ago to describe
observables in isolated integrable quantum systems after equilibration. Since then, the GGE …

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 …

Entanglement asymmetry and quantum Mpemba effect in two-dimensional free-fermion systems

S Yamashika, F Ares, P Calabrese - Physical Review B, 2024 - APS
The quantum Mpemba effect is the counterintuitive nonequilibrium phenomenon wherein
the dynamic restoration of a broken symmetry occurs more rapidly when the initial state …

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 …

Generalized-hydrodynamic approach to inhomogeneous quenches: correlations, entanglement and quantum effects

V Alba, B Bertini, M Fagotti, L Piroli… - Journal of Statistical …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org

inhomogeneous quenches in integrable many-body quantum systems. We review recent …

Quantum quenches in 1+ 1 dimensional conformal field theories

P Calabrese, J Cardy - Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
We review the imaginary time path integral approach to the quench dynamics of conformal
field theories. We show how this technique can be applied to the determination of the time …

Time evolution of local observables after quenching to an integrable model

JS Caux, FHL Essler - Physical review letters, 2013 - APS
We consider quantum quenches in integrable models. We argue that the behavior of local
observables at late times after the quench is given by their expectation values with respect to …

Quasilocal charges in integrable lattice systems

E Ilievski, M Medenjak, T Prosen… - Journal of Statistical …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
We review recent progress in understanding the notion of locality in integrable quantum
lattice systems. The central concept concerns the so-called quasilocal conserved quantities …
