• Abstract summary: We provide real-space and Fock-space characterizations of ergodic, nonergodic extended (NEE) and many-body localized (MBL) phases in a quasiperiodic system. We show that a mobility edge in the single-particle excitations survives even in the presence of interaction in the NEE phase. We give complementary insights into the distinction of the NEE states from the ergodic and MBL states by computing local FS self-energies and decay length associated, respectively, with the local and the non-local FS propagators.

• Abstract: We provide real-space and Fock-space (FS) characterizations of ergodic, nonergodic extended (NEE) and many-body localized (MBL) phases in an interacting quasiperiodic system, namely generalized Aubry-Andr\'e-Harper model, which possesses a mobility edge in the non-interacting limit. We show that a mobility edge in the single-particle (SP) excitations survives even in the presence of interaction in the NEE phase. In contrast, all SP excitations get localized in the MBL phase due to the MBL proximity effect. We give complementary insights into the distinction of the NEE states from the ergodic and MBL states by computing local FS self-energies and decay length associated, respectively, with the local and the non-local FS propagators. Based on a finite-size scaling analysis of the typical local self-energy across the NEE to ergodic transition, we show that MBL and NEE states exhibit qualitatively similar multifractal character. However, we find that the NEE and MBL states can be distinguished in terms of the decay of the non-local propagator in the FS, whereas the typical local FS self-energy cannot tell them apart.

  Many-body eigenstates that are neither thermal nor many-body-localized (MBL) were numerically found in certain interacting chains with moderate quasiperiodic potentials. We numerically examine the mutual independence among the NEE, MBL, and thermal regimes in the lens of eigenstate entanglement spectra (ES) We find that while the MBL and thermal regimes are mutually independent, the NEE regime is dependent on the former two and smoothly appears as the potential strength decreases.

  We study the photon-dipole interactions between emitters dispersively coupled to the photonic analogue of a flat band (FB) We show that the strength of such photon-mediated interactions decays exponentially with distance with a characteristic localization length. We find that the localization length grows with the overlap between CLSs according to an analytically-derived universal scaling law valid for a large class of FBs both in 1D and 2D.

  Quantum transport and localization are fundamental concepts in condensed matter physics. Here, we experimentally implement disorder-free mosaic photonic lattices using a silicon photonics platform. Our studies provide the experimental proof of coexisting sets of strongly localized and conducting (though weakly localized) states in finite-sized mosaic Wannier-Stark lattices.

By single site injection and scanning the disorder level, we could approximately probe the ME of the modulated lattice.

• Entanglement and localization in long-range quadratic Lindbladians [49.1574468325115]
  Signatures of localization have been observed in condensed matter and cold atomic systems. We propose a model of one-dimensional chain of non-interacting, spinless fermions coupled to a local ensemble of baths. We show that the steady state of the system undergoes a localization entanglement phase transition by tuning $p$ which remains stable in the presence of coherent hopping.

  We explore the Fock-space structure of eigenstates across the many-body localisation (MBL) transition in a disordered, interacting quantum spin-1/2 chain. Eigenstate expectation values of spatially local observables can be represented in terms of eigenstate amplitudes on the Fock space. We show how correlation functions on the Fock space reveal the inhomogeneities in eigenstate amplitudes on the Fock space in the MBL phase.
