• Title: Anomalous transport in the kinetically constrained quantum East-West model
• Authors: Pietro Brighi, Marko Ljubotina,
• Abstract summary: We study a chaotic particle-conserving kinetically constrained model, with a single parameter which allows us to break reflection symmetry. We show that the lack of reflection symmetry affects infinite-temperature dynamics, resulting in an asymmetric dynamical structure factor. We also observe low-entangled eigenstates in the spectrum of the model, a telltale sign of quantum many body scars.

• Abstract: We study a chaotic particle-conserving kinetically constrained model, with a single parameter which allows us to break reflection symmetry. Through extensive numerical simulations we find that the domain wall state shows a variety of dynamical behaviors from localization all the way to ballistic transport, depending on the value of the reflection breaking parameter. Surprisingly, such anomalous behavior is not mirrored in infinite-temperature dynamics, which appear to scale diffusively, in line with expectations for generic interacting models. However, studying the particle density gradient, we show that the lack of reflection symmetry affects infinite-temperature dynamics, resulting in an asymmetric dynamical structure factor. This is in disagreement with normal diffusion and suggests that the model may also exhibit anomalous dynamics at infinite temperature in the thermodynamic limit. Finally, we observe low-entangled eigenstates in the spectrum of the model, a telltale sign of quantum many body scars.

• Signatures of a quantum phase transition on a single-mode bosonic model [0.0]
  Equilibrium phase transitions emerge from the microscopic behavior of many-body systems. They can be defined through the non-analytic behavior of thermodynamic potentials in the thermodynamic limit. Taking previous ideas to the extreme, we argue that such a limit can be defined even in non-extended systems.

  We study the dynamics of an initial end state in nonreciprocal Su-Schrieffer-Heeger models under open boundary conditions. We find that it is dynamically more robust than its Hermitian counterpart, because the non-Hermitian skin effect can suppress the part leaking to the bulk sites.

  The eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) offers a universal mechanism for the approach to equilibrium of closed quantum many-body systems. Here, we propose a theory-independent route to probe the full ETH in quantum simulators by observing the emergence of fluctuation-dissipation relations. Our work presents a theory-independent way to characterize thermalization in quantum simulators and paves the way to quantum simulate condensed matter pump-probe experiments.
