• Abstract: In this work, we develop a theoretical description of the collective behavior of interacting dipolar planar rotors by using time independent perturbation theory and a small angle quadratic approximation. The ground state properties for both the ordered and disordered quantum phases of the system are directly calculated and analyzed. Time-independent perturbation theory is shown to be appropriate for the disordered phase. For the ordered phase, we construct a quadratic approximation based on the stable equilibrium configurations of the dipolar ordering; we show that the inclusion of the quartic terms from the expansion of the potential energy are essential to correct the shift in the energy spectrum due to quantization ambiguities. Numerical techniques such as Exact Diagonalization and Density Matrix Renormalization Group are used for the benchmark the quality of both approximations.

  We write down a renewal equation for the statistics of the entanglement entropy and show that depending on the spectrum of quasiparticle decay rates different entanglement scaling can arise and even sharp entanglement phase transitions. When applied to a Quantum Ising chain where the transverse magnetization is measured by quantum jumps, our theory predicts a critical phase with logarithmic scaling of the entanglement, an area law phase and a continuous phase transition between them, with an effective central charge vanishing as a square root at the transition point.

  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.
