• Abstract: Evidently, some relaxation dynamics, e.g. exponential decays, are much more common in nature than others. Recently there have been attempts to explain this observation on the basis of ``typicality of perturbations'' with respect to their impact on expectation value dynamics. These theories suggest that a majority of the very numerous, possible Hamiltonian perturbations entail more or less the same type of alteration of the decay dynamics. Thus, in this paper, we study how the approach towards equilibrium in closed quantum systems is altered due to weak perturbations. To this end, we perform numerical experiments on a particular, exemplary spin system. We compare our numerical data to predictions from three particular theories. We find satisfying agreement in the weak perturbation regime for one of these approaches.

We perform large-scale quantum simulations that monitor the full counting statistics of particle-number fluctuations in boson ladders. Our results suggest that large-scale fluctuations of isolated quantum systems display emergent hydrodynamic behavior.

• Strongly incoherent gravity [0.0]
  A non-entangling version of an arbitrary two-body potential $V(r)$ arises from local measurements and feedback forces. This produces a non-relativistic model of gravity with fundamental loss of unitarity. As an alternative to testing entanglement properties, we show that the entire remaining parameter space can be tested by looking for loss of quantum coherence in small systems.

• Stability of Exponentially Damped Oscillations under Perturbations of the Mori-Chain [0.0]
  We investigate the behavior of various relaxation dynamics with respect to alterations of the so-called Lanczos coefficients. Our numerical experiments suggest the existence of stability in a larger class of relaxation dynamics consisting of exponentially damped oscillations. We propose a criterion to identify "pathological" perturbations that lead to uncommon dynamics.
