We show that the Haldane phase of S=1 chains is characterized by a double degeneracy of the entanglement spectrum. The degeneracy is protected by a set of symmetries (either the dihedral group of…

Thermalization and scrambling are the subject of much recent study from the perspective of many-body quantum systems with locally bounded Hilbert spaces (`spin chains'), quantum field theory and…

The significance for proposed atomic experiments is that local measurements will show a large but nonthermal entropy in the many-body localized state, which develops slowly over a diverging time scale as in glassy systems.
Many-body localization in a disordered quantum Ising chain.

Two entanglement properties that are promising for the study of the many-body localization transition are explored: the variance of the half-chainEntanglement entropy of exact eigenstates and the long time change in entanglements after a local quench from an specific eigenstate.
Ergodicity Breaking Arising from Hilbert Space Fragmentation in Dipole-Conserving Hamiltonians

We show that the combination of charge and dipole conservation---characteristic of fracton systems---leads to an extensive fragmentation of the Hilbert space, which in turn can lead to a breakdown of…
Symmetry protection of topological phases in one-dimensional quantum spin systems

We discuss the characterization and stability of the Haldane phase in integer spin chains on the basis of simple, physical arguments. We find that an odd-S Haldane phase is a topologically nontrivial…
Detection of symmetry-protected topological phases in one dimension

- Mathematics
- 3 April 2012
A topological phase is a phase of matter which cannot be characterized by a local order parameter. It has been shown that gapped symmetric phases in one-dimensional (1D) systems can be completely…
One-dimensional symmetry protected topological phases and their transitions
- R. Verresen, R. Moessner, F. Pollmann

- 18 July 2017
We present a unified perspective on symmetry protected topological (SPT) phases in one dimension and address the open question of what characterizes their phase transitions. In the first part of this…
Stark Many-Body Localization.

It is shown that this system remains localized in the presence of interactions and exhibits physics analogous to models of conventional many-body localization (MBL), and that a quench experiment starting from a charge-density wave state would show results similar to those of Schreiber et al.
Topological characterization of fractional quantum Hall ground states from microscopic Hamiltonians.

The quantum dimensions, topological spins, quasiparticle charges, chiral central charge, and Hall viscosity of the phase can be obtained using data contained entirely in the entanglement spectrum of an infinite cylinder.
