• Abstract: Interacting lattice Hamiltonians at high temperature generically give rise to energy transport governed by the classical diffusion equation; however, predicting the rate of diffusion requires numerical simulation of the microscopic quantum dynamics. For the purpose of predicting such transport properties, computational time evolution methods must be paired with schemes to control the growth of entanglement to tractably simulate for sufficiently long times. One such truncation scheme -- dissipation-assisted operator evolution (DAOE) -- controls entanglement by damping out components of operators with large Pauli weight. In this paper, we generalize DAOE to treat fermionic systems. Our method instead damps out components of operators with large fermionic weight. We investigate the performance of DAOE, the new fermionic DAOE (FDAOE), and another simulation method, density matrix truncation (DMT), in simulating energy transport in an interacting one-dimensional Majorana chain. The chain is found to have a diffusion coefficient scaling like interaction strength to the fourth power, contrary to naive expectations based on Fermi's Golden rule -- but consistent with recent predictions based on the theory of \emph{weak integrability breaking}. In the weak interaction regime where the fermionic nature of the system is most relevant, FDAOE is found to simulate the system more efficiently than DAOE.

• The ballistic to diffusive crossover in a weakly-interacting Fermi gas [0.0]
  We develop a numerical method to simulate systems of fermions at high temperatures by adapting Dissipation-assisted Operator Evolution to fermions. Applying our method to a microscopic model of weakly interacting fermions, we numerically demonstrate that the crossover from ballistic to diffusive transport happens at a time. We substantiate this scaling with a Fermi's golden rule calculation in the operator spreading picture, interpreting $t_D$ as the fermion-fermion scattering time and lifetime of the single-particle Green's function.
