We consider the possibility of developing a Lieb-Robinson bound for the double bracket flow[3, 4]. This is a differential equation m ( ) = [[+, ( )], ( )] which may be used to diagonalize Hamiltonians. Here, + is fixed and (0) = . We argue (but do not prove) that ( ) need not converge to a limit for nonzero real in the infinite volume limit, even assuming several conditions on (0). However, we prove Lieb-Robinson bounds for all for the double-bracket flow for free fermion systems, but the range…

A quantum algorithm for preparing eigenstates of quantum systems is presented which makes use of only forward and backward evolutions under a prescribed Hamiltonian and phase ﬂips. It is based on the

### Local integrals of motion and the stability of many-body localisation in disorder-free systems

• Mathematics

Many-body localisation in disordered systems in one spatial dimension is typically understood in terms of the existence of an extensive number of (quasi)-local integrals of motion (LIOMs) which are

A new family of Lieb-Robinson bounds for lattice spin systems with long-range interactions is proved, which allow us to prove that, at any fixed time, the spatial decay of quantum information follows arbitrarily closely to $1/r^{\alpha}$.

A generalization of the Lieb-Schultz-Mattis theorem to higher dimensional spin systems is shown. The physical motivation for the result is that such spin systems typically either have long-range

A new Lieb-Robinson bound is derived for systems with interactions that decay with distance r as a power law, 1/rα, which implies an effective light cone tighter than all previous bounds.

We present and prove a well-known locality bound for the complex-time dynamics of a general class of one-dimensional quantum spin systems. Then we discuss how one might hope to extend this same

This work rules out the possibility that light cones of power-law interacting systems are bounded by a polynomial for α>2D and become linear as α→∞, suggesting that the velocity, as calculated from the slope of the light cone, may grow exponentially in time.
