• Abstract: We study the evolution of two-point correlation functions of one-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model in the semiclassical regime in the framework of Truncated Wigner Approximation (TWA) with quantum jumps as first-order corrections. At early times, the correlation functions show strong superdiffusion with universal integer exponents determined solely by the initial conditions and completely insensitive to system parameters and chaos. Only after a long time this regime crosses over to normal diffusion regime which is most robust when nonintegrability is strong. For strong nonintegrability, the system ends up in a homogeneous state while for weak nonintegrability the oscillations and inhomogeneities persist, despite the fact that chaos is nearly always strong and only weakly depends on nonintegrability parameter. We conclude that the superidiffusive regime is neither prethermalized nor a precursor to thermalization but a novel early-time phenomenon related to a special scaling symmetry of the Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian.

  We study the existence of topological edge zero- and pi-modes despite the lack of bulk gaps in the quasienergy spectrum. We numerically study the effect of interactions, which give a finite lifetime to the edge modes in the thermodynamic limit with the decay rate consistent with Fermi's Golden Rule.

  We study the universal structure of late-time ensembles in quantum chaotic systems with symmetries. Our work shows that even though midspectrum states do not explore ergodically all of phase space at late times, the late-time ensemble typically -- but not always -- exhibits the same average and sample-to-sample fluctuations as the Haar ensemble.

  interplay between symmetries and entanglement in out-of-equilibrium quantum systems is currently at the centre of an intense multidisciplinary research effort. We show that one can introduce a class of solvable states, which extends that of generic dual unitary circuits. In contrast to the known class of solvable states, which relax to the infinite temperature state, these states relax to a family of non-trivial generalised Gibbs ensembles.

  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 analyze the time-dependent free energy functionals of the semiclassical one-dimensional Bose-Hubbard chain. We first review the weakly chaotic dynamics and the consequent early-time anomalous diffusion in the system. The anomalous diffusion is robust, appears with strictly quantized coefficients, and persists even for very long chains.

This work systematically reveals abundant many-body phases in the 1D JCH model and clarifies the discrepancies in the thermalization properties of systems with and without disorder.

  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.

• Quantum coherence controls the nature of equilibration in coupled chaotic systems [0.0]
  Quantum coherence of the initial product states in the uncoupled eigenbasis can be viewed as a resource for equilibration and approach to thermalization. Results are given for four distinct perturbation strength regimes, the ultra-weak, weak, intermediate, and strong regimes. Maximally coherent initial states thermalize for any perturbation strength in spite of the fact that in the ultra-weak perturbative regime the underlying eigenstates of the system have a tensor product structure and are not at all thermal-like.

• Onset of many-body quantum chaos due to breaking integrability [0.0]
  We argue that the onset of quantum chaos can be described as a Fock-space delocalization process. The integrability-breaking perturbation introduces hopping in this Fock space, and chaos sets in when this hopping delocalizes the many-body eigenstates in this space. In either case, the perturbation strength at the onset of chaos scales to zero in the usual thermodynamic limit.
