• Abstract: Matrix-product operators (MPOs) appear throughout the study of integrable lattice models, notably as the transfer matrices. They can also be used as transformations to construct dualities between such models, both invertible (including unitary) and non-invertible (including discrete gauging). We analyse how the local Yang--Baxter integrable structures are modified under such dualities. We see that the $\check{R}$-matrix, that appears in the baxterization approach to integrability, transforms in a simple manner. We further show for a broad class of MPOs that the usual Yang--Baxter $R$-matrix satisfies a modified algebra, previously identified in the unitary case, that gives a local integrable structure underlying the commuting transfer matrices of the dual model. We illustrate these results with two case studies, analysing an invertible unitary MPO and a non-invertible MPO both applied to the canonical XXZ spin chain. The former is the cluster entangler, arising in the study of symmetry-protected topological phases, while the latter is the Kramers--Wannier duality. We show several results for MPOs with exact MPO inverses that are of independent interest.

  The mobility edge, as a central concept in disordered models for localization-delocalization transitions, has rarely been discussed in the context of random matrix theory. We show that their overlapped spectra and un-overlapped spectra exhibit totally different scaling behaviors, which can be used to construct tunable mobility edges. Our model provides a general framework to realize the mobility edges and non-ergodic phases in a controllable way in RMT.

  We introduce graph gamma process (GGP) linear dynamical systems to model real multivariate time series. For temporal pattern discovery, the latent representation under the model is used to decompose the time series into a parsimonious set of multivariate sub-sequences. We use the generated random graph, whose number of nonzero-degree nodes is finite, to define both the sparsity pattern and dimension of the latent state transition matrix.
