Bounds in nonequilibrium quantum dynamics

Z Gong, R Hamazaki - International Journal of Modern Physics B, 2022 - World Scientific
We review various bounds concerning out-of-equilibrium dynamics in few-level and many-
body quantum systems. We primarily focus on closed quantum systems but will also mention …

Effective theory for the measurement-induced phase transition of Dirac fermions

M Buchhold, Y Minoguchi, A Altland, S Diehl - Physical Review X, 2021 - APS
A wave function subject to unitary time evolution and exposed to measurements undergoes
pure state dynamics, with deterministic unitary and probabilistic measurement-induced state …

Barren plateaus preclude learning scramblers

Z Holmes, A Arrasmith, B Yan, PJ Coles, A Albrecht… - Physical Review Letters, 2021 - APS
Scrambling processes, which rapidly spread entanglement through many-body quantum
systems, are difficult to investigate using standard techniques, but are relevant to quantum …

Scrambling is necessary but not sufficient for chaos

N Dowling, P Kos, K Modi - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
We show that out-of-time-order correlators (OTOCs) constitute a probe for local-operator
entanglement (LOE). There is strong evidence that a volumetric growth of LOE is a faithful …

Scrambling dynamics and out-of-time-ordered correlators in quantum many-body systems

S Xu, B Swingle - PRX quantum, 2024 - APS
This tutorial article introduces the physics of quantum information scrambling in quantum
many-body systems. The goals are to understand how to precisely quantify the spreading of …

Ergodic and nonergodic dual-unitary quantum circuits with arbitrary local Hilbert space dimension

PW Claeys, A Lamacraft - Physical Review Letters, 2021 - APS
Dual-unitary quantum circuits can be used to construct 1+ 1 dimensional lattice models for
which dynamical correlations of local observables can be explicitly calculated. We show …

Dynamical purification and the emergence of quantum state designs from the projected ensemble

M Ippoliti, WW Ho - PRX Quantum, 2023 - APS
Quantum thermalization in a many-body system is defined by the approach of local
subsystems toward a universal form, describable as an ensemble of quantum states wherein …

Exact thermalization dynamics in the “Rule 54” quantum cellular automaton

K Klobas, B Bertini, L Piroli - Physical Review Letters, 2021 - APS
We study the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of the quantum cellular automaton known as “Rule
54.” For a class of low-entangled initial states, we provide an analytic description of the effect …

Temporal entanglement in chaotic quantum circuits

A Foligno, T Zhou, B Bertini - Physical Review X, 2023 - APS
The concept of space evolution (or space-time duality) has emerged as a promising
approach for studying quantum dynamics. The basic idea involves exchanging the roles of …

Quantum Information Spreading in Generalized Dual-Unitary Circuits

A Foligno, P Kos, B Bertini - Physical Review Letters, 2024 - APS
We study the spreading of quantum information in a recently introduced family of brickwork
quantum circuits that generalizes the dual-unitary class. These circuits are unitary in time …
