• Abstract: Identifying phase transition points is a fundamental challenge in condensed matter physics, particularly for transitions driven by quantum interference effects, such as Anderson and many-body localization. Recent studies have demonstrated that quantum coherence provides an effective means of detecting localization transitions, offering a practical alternative to full quantum state tomography and related approaches. Building on this idea, we investigate localization transitions through complementarity relations that connect local predictability, local coherence, and entanglement in bipartite pure states. Our results show that predictability serves as a robust and efficient marker for localization transitions. Crucially, its experimental determination requires exponentially fewer measurements than coherence or entanglement, making it a powerful tool for probing quantum phase transitions.

The non-analyticities in the quantum distance between two subsystem density matrices identify the critical time. We propose a distance measure from the upper bound of the local quantum fidelity for certain quench protocols.

  We present a theory of localisation in quasiperiodic chains with nearest-neighbour hoppings, based on the convergence of local propagators. Analysing the convergence of these continued fractions, localisation or its absence can be determined, yielding in turn the critical points and mobility edges. Results are exemplified by analysing the theory for three quasiperiodic models covering a range of behaviour.

This method works for measurements of local observables in a single basis and is thus readily applicable to many experimental quantum simulators.
