Strongly long-range interacting quantum systems-those with interactions decaying as a power law 1/r α in the distance r on a D-dimensional lattice for α ⩽ D-have received significant interest in recent years. They are present in leading experimental platforms for quantum computation and simulation, as well as in theoretical models of quantum-information scrambling and fast entanglement creation. Since no notion of locality is expected in such systems, a general understanding of their dynamics…

A "complexity phase diagram" is demonstrated for the Bose-Hubbard model with long-range hopping that shows how the complexity of simulating time evolution varies according to various parameters appearing in the problem, such as the evolution time, the particle density, and the degree of locality.

This work analyzes a local quantum quench in the long-range Ising model in a transverse field to identify three dynamical regimes: short-range-like with an emerging light cone for α>2, weakly long range for 1<α<2 without a clear light cone but with a finite propagation speed of almost all excitations, and fully nonlocal for α<1 with instantaneous transmission of correlations.

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.

Physical Review A

While the interactions are long-range, their effect on information spreading is asymptotically negligible as long as $\alpha>1$, which directly implies that all previously obtained rigorous bounds on information spread in long- range interacting systems are not tight, and thus could be improved.
