• Abstract summary: Measuring the degree of localization of quantum states in phase space is essential for the description of the dynamics and equilibration of quantum systems. Here, we present a general scheme to define localization in measure spaces, which is based on what we call R'enyi occupations. We make a detailed comparison of two localization measures based on the Husimi function in the regime where the model is chaotic.

• Abstract: Measuring the degree of localization of quantum states in phase space is essential for the description of the dynamics and equilibration of quantum systems, but this topic is far from being understood. There is no unique way to measure localization, and individual measures can reflect different aspects of the same quantum state. Here, we present a general scheme to define localization in measure spaces, which is based on what we call R\'enyi occupations, from which any measure of localization can be derived. We apply this scheme to the four-dimensional unbounded phase space of the interacting spin-boson Dicke model. In particular, we make a detailed comparison of two localization measures based on the Husimi function in the regime where the model is chaotic, namely one that projects the Husimi function over the finite phase space of the spin and another that uses the Husimi function defined over classical energy shells. We elucidate the origin of their differences, showing that in unbounded spaces the definition of maximal delocalization requires a bounded reference subspace, with different selections leading to contextual answers.

  The electromagnetic trapping of ion chains can be regarded as a process of non-trivial entangled quantum state preparation. The decay of entanglement between disjoint subsets of local modes is found to exhibit features of entanglement structure. A framework is established for initializing quantum field simulations via "imaging" extended entangled states from natural sources.

  We study the dynamical quantum phase transition in integrable and non-integrable Ising chains. The non-analyticities in the quantum distance between two subsystem density matrices identify the critical time. We propose a distance measure from the upper bound of the local quantum fidelity for certain quench protocols.

For one-dimensional systems we find very precise estimations of the ground-state energies and the radial distribution functions of the particles. In two dimensions we obtain good estimations of the ground-state energies, comparable to results obtained from more conventional methods.

This implies that the mean chiral displacement can detect the winding number even when the underlying Hamiltonian is quenched between different topological phases.
