Emergent hydrodynamics in integrable quantum systems out of equilibrium

OA Castro-Alvaredo, B Doyon, T Yoshimura - Physical Review X, 2016 - APS
Understanding the general principles underlying strongly interacting quantum states out of
equilibrium is one of the most important tasks of current theoretical physics. With …

Transport in Out-of-Equilibrium Chains: Exact Profiles of Charges and Currents

B Bertini, M Collura, J De Nardis, M Fagotti - Physical review letters, 2016 - APS
We consider the nonequilibrium time evolution of piecewise homogeneous states in the XXZ
spin-1/2 chain, a paradigmatic example of an interacting integrable model. The initial state …

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 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 …

Hydrodynamics of operator spreading and quasiparticle diffusion in interacting integrable systems

S Gopalakrishnan, DA Huse, V Khemani, R Vasseur - Physical Review B, 2018 - APS
We address the hydrodynamics of operator spreading in interacting integrable lattice
models. In these models, operators spread through the ballistic propagation of …

Hydrodynamic diffusion in integrable systems

J De Nardis, D Bernard, B Doyon - Physical review letters, 2018 - APS
We show that hydrodynamic diffusion is generically present in many-body, one-dimensional
interacting quantum and classical integrable models. We extend the recently developed …

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 …
