Abstract: We numerically study quantum avalanches in 1D disordered spin systems by attaching two XXZ spin chains. One chain has low disorder representing a rare Griffith's region, or thermal inclusion, and the second has larger disorder, i.e. disorder larger than the observed finite-size crossover. Comparing dynamics of this system to identical systems with uniformly large disorder, we find evidence for exponentially slow thermalization (in disorder) within the MBL regime when the rare region is present. We observe a decay of the spin imbalance in the bulk of the large disorder region that persists to long times ($\sim10^{4}$) and find a universal behavior of the spectral function.

Quantum Avalanches in $\mathbb{Z}_2$-preserving Interacting Ising Majorana Chain [13.135604356093193]
Recent numerical works have revealed the instability of many-body localized (MBL) phase in disordered quantum many-body systems. This instability arises from Griffith regions that occur at the limit, which rapidly thermalize and affect the surrounding typical MBL regions. We show that both MBL paramagnetic phase and MBL spin-glass phase are unstable at finite sizes.

Anomalous transport in U(1)-symmetric quantum circuits [41.94295877935867]
Investigation of discrete-time transport in a generic U(1)-symmetric disordered model tuned across an array of different dynamical regimes. We develop an aggregate quantity, a circular statistical moment, which is a simple function of the magnetization profile. From this quantity we extract transport exponents, revealing behaviors across the phase diagram consistent with localized, diffusive, and - most interestingly for a disordered system - superdiffusive regimes.

We study the behavior of XXZ spin chains with a quasiperiodic disorder not present in continuum holography. Our results suggest the existence of a class of critical phases whose symmetries are derived from models of discrete holography.

Phenomenology of many-body localization in bond-disordered spin chains [0.0]
Many-body localization hinders the thermalization of quantum many-body systems in the presence of strong disorder. In this work, we study the MBL regime in bond-disordered spin-1/2 XXZ spin chain.

Emergent Anomalous Hydrodynamics at Infinite Temperature in a Long-Range XXZ Model [14.297989605089663]
We find anomalous hydrodynamics in a spin-1/2 XXZ chain with power-law couplings. We quantify the degree of quantum chaos using the Kullback-Leibler divergence. This work offers another deep understanding of emergent anomalous transport phenomena in a wider range of non-integrable quantum many-body systems.

We study the many-body localization (MBL) properties of the Heisenberg XXZ spin-$frac12$ chain in a random magnetic field. We prove that the system exhibits localization in any given energy interval at the bottom of the spectrum in a nontrivial region of the parameter space.

Emergent pair localization in a many-body quantum spin system [0.0]
Generically, non-integrable quantum systems are expected to thermalize as they comply with the Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis. In the presence of strong disorder, the dynamics can possibly slow down to a degree that systems fail to thermalize on experimentally accessible timescales. We study an ensemble of Heisenberg spins with a tunable distribution of random coupling strengths realized by a Rydberg quantum simulator.

Quantum chaos and thermalization in the two-mode Dicke model [77.34726150561087]
We discuss the onset of quantum chaos and thermalization in the two-mode Dicke model. The two-mode Dicke model exhibits normal to superradiant quantum phase transition. We show that the temporal fluctuations of the expectation value of the collective spin observable around its average are small and decrease with the effective system size.

Anomalous multifractality in quantum chains with strongly correlated disorder [68.8204255655161]
We show that a robust and unusual multifractal regime can emerge in a one-dimensional quantum chain with maximally correlated disorder. This regime is preceded by a mixed and an extended regime at weaker disorder strengths, with the former hosting both extended and multifractal eigenstates.
