[HTML][HTML] Many-body localization: An introduction and selected topics

F Alet, N Laflorencie - Comptes Rendus Physique, 2018 - Elsevier
What happens in an isolated quantum system when both disorder and interactions are
present? Over the recent years, the picture of a non-thermalizing phase of matter, the many …

Quantum entanglement in condensed matter systems

N Laflorencie - Physics Reports, 2016 - Elsevier
This review focuses on the field of quantum entanglement applied to condensed matter
physics systems with strong correlations, a domain which has rapidly grown over the last …

Exploring the many-body localization transition in two dimensions

J Choi, S Hild, J Zeiher, P Schauß, A Rubio-Abadal… - Science, 2016 - science.org
A fundamental assumption in statistical physics is that generic closed quantum many-body
systems thermalize under their own dynamics. Recently, the emergence of many-body …

Spectroscopic signatures of localization with interacting photons in superconducting qubits

P Roushan, C Neill, J Tangpanitanon, VM Bastidas… - Science, 2017 - science.org
Quantized eigenenergies and their associated wave functions provide extensive information
for predicting the physics of quantum many-body systems. Using a chain of nine …

Many-body localization and thermalization in quantum statistical mechanics

R Nandkishore, DA Huse - Annu. Rev. Condens. Matter Phys., 2015 - annualreviews.org
We review some recent developments in the statistical mechanics of isolated quantum
systems. We provide a brief introduction to quantum thermalization, paying particular …

Dynamical obstruction to localization in a disordered spin chain

D Sels, A Polkovnikov - Physical Review E, 2021 - APS
We analyze a one-dimensional XXZ spin chain in a disordered magnetic field. As the main
probes of the system's behavior, we use the sensitivity of eigenstates to adiabatic …

Recent progress in many‐body localization

DA Abanin, Z Papić - Annalen der Physik, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
This article is a brief introduction to the rapidly evolving field of many‐body localization.
Rather than giving an in‐depth review of the subject, our aspiration here is simply to …

Many-body localization edge in the random-field Heisenberg chain

DJ Luitz, N Laflorencie, F Alet - Physical Review B, 2015 - APS
We present a large-scale exact diagonalization study of the one-dimensional spin-1/2
Heisenberg model in a random magnetic field. In order to access properties at varying …

Stability and instability towards delocalization in many-body localization systems

W De Roeck, F Huveneers - Physical Review B, 2017 - APS
We propose a theory that describes quantitatively the (in) stability of fully many-body
localization (MBL) systems due to ergodic, ie, delocalized, grains, that can be, for example …

Phenomenology of fully many-body-localized systems

DA Huse, R Nandkishore, V Oganesyan - Physical Review B, 2014 - APS
We consider fully many-body-localized systems, ie, isolated quantum systems where all the
many-body eigenstates of the Hamiltonian are localized. We define a sense in which such …
