Abstract

Abstract In an m particle quantum system, the rank of interactions and the nature of particles (fermions or bosons) can strongly affect the dynamics of the system. To explore this, we study the nonequilibrium dynamics with particles in a one-body mean-field and quenched by an interaction of body-rank k = 2, 3, …, m . Using fermionic embedded Gaussian orthogonal ensembles (EGOEs) and bosonic embedded Gaussian orthogonal ensembles (BEGOEs) of one plus k -body interactions (also the unitary variants EGUE and BEGUE), it is seen that the short time decay of the survival probability of many-particle systems is given by the Fourier transform of the generating function of the q -Hermite polynomials. Deriving the formulas for q for both fermion and boson systems as a function of m , k and the number of single particle states N , we have verified that the Fourier transform of agrees very well with the numerical ensemble calculations for both fermion and boson systems. These results bridge the gap between the known results for k = 2 and k = m .

Average-fluctuation separation in energy levels in quantum many-particle systems with $k$-body interactions using $q$-Hermite polynomials

N. D. Chavda

Separation between average and fluctuation parts in the state density in many-particle quantum systems with $k$-body interactions, modeled by the $k$-body embedded Gaussian orthogonal random matrices (EGOE($k$)), is demonstrated using the method of normal mode decomposition of the spectra and also verified through power spectrum analysis, for both fermions and bosons. The smoothed state density is represented by the $q$-normal distribution ($f_{qN}$) (with corrections) which is the weight function for $q$-Hermite polynomials. As the rank of interaction $k$ increases, the fluctuations set in with smaller order of corrections in the smooth state density. They are found to be of GOE type, for all $k$ values, for both fermion and boson systems.

Eigenstate structure in many-body bosonic systems: Analysis using random matrices and $q$-Hermite polynomials

Priyanka Rao, Manan Vyas, N. D. Chavda

We analyze the structure of eigenstates in many-body bosonic systems by modeling the Hamiltonian of these complex systems using Bosonic Embedded Gaussian Orthogonal Ensembles (BEGOE) defined by a mean-field plus $k$-body random interactions. The quantities employed are the number of principal components (NPC), the localization length ($l_H$) and the entropy production $S(t)$. The numerical results are compared with the analytical formulas obtained using random matrices which are based on bivariate $q$-Hermite polynomials for local density of states $F_k(E|q)$ and the bivariate $q$-Hermite polynomial form for bivariate eigenvalue density $ρ_{biv:q}(E,E_k)$ that are valid in the strong interaction domain. We also compare transport efficiency in many-body bosonic systems using BEGOE in absence and presence of centrosymmetry. It is seen that the centrosymmetry enhances quantum efficiency.

Non-equilibrium many-body dynamics following a quantum quench

Manan Vyas

We study analytically and numerically the non-equilibrium dynamics of an isolated interacting many-body quantum system following a random quench. We model the system Hamiltonian by Embedded Gaussian Orthogonal Ensemble (EGOE) of random matrices with one plus few-body interactions for fermions. EGOE are paradigmatic models to study the crossover from integrability to chaos in interacting many-body quantum systems. We obtain a generic formulation, based on spectral variances, for describing relaxation dynamics of survival probabilities as a function of rank of interactions. Our analytical results are in good agreement with numerics.

Fidelity decay and entropy production in many-particle systems after random interaction quench

Sudip Kumar Haldar, N D Chavda, Manan Vyas +1 more

Abstract We analyze the effect of spin degree of freedom on fidelity decay and entropy production of a many-particle fermionic (bosonic) system in a mean-field, quenched by a random two-body interaction preserving many-particle spin S . The system Hamiltonian is represented by embedded Gaussian orthogonal ensemble (EGOE) of random matrices (for time-reversal and rotationally invariant systems) with one plus two-body interactions preserving S for fermions/bosons. EGOE are paradigmatic models to study the dynamical transition from integrability to chaos in interacting many-body quantum systems. A simple general picture, in which the variances of the eigenvalue density play a central role, is obtained for describing the short-time dynamics of fidelity decay and entropy production. Using some approximations, an EGOE formula for the time ( t sat ) for the onset of saturation of entropy, is also derived. These analytical EGOE results are in good agreement with numerical calculations. Moreover, both fermion and boson systems show significant spin dependence on the relaxation dynamics of the fidelity and entropy.

Thermalization in many-fermion quantum systems with one-plus random k-body interactions

Priyanka Rao, N. D. Chavda

Abstract We study the mechanism of thermalization in finite many-fermion systems with random k-body interactions in the presence of a mean-field. The system Hamiltonian H, for m fermions in N single particle states with k-body interactions, is modeled by mean field one-body h(1) and a random k-body interaction V(k) with strength λ. Following the recent application of q-Hermite polynomials to these ensembles, a complete analytical description of parameter q, which describes the change in the shape of state density from Gaussian for q = 1 to semi-circle for q = 0 and intermediate for 0 < q < 1 , and variance of the strength function are obtained in terms of model parameters. The latter gives the thermalization marker λ t defining the thermodynamic region. For λ ⩾ λ t , the smooth part of the strength functions is very well represented by conditional q-normal distribution (f CN ), which describes the transition in strength functions from Gaussian to semi-circle as the k-body interaction changes from k = 2 to m in H. In the thermodynamic region, ensemble averaged results for the first four moments of the strength functions and inverse participation ratio are found to be in good agreement with the corresponding smooth forms. For higher body rank of interaction k, the system thermalizes faster.

Random k-Body Ensembles for Chaos and Thermalization in Isolated Systems

V. K. B. Kota, N. D. Chavda

Embedded ensembles or random matrix ensembles generated by k-body interactions acting in many-particle spaces are now well established to be paradigmatic models for many-body chaos and thermalization in isolated finite quantum (fermion or boson) systems. In this article, briefly discussed are (i) various embedded ensembles with Lie algebraic symmetries for fermion and boson systems and their extensions (for Majorana fermions, with point group symmetries etc.); (ii) results generated by these ensembles for various aspects of chaos, thermalization and statistical relaxation, including the role of q-hermite polynomials in k-body ensembles; and (iii) analyses of numerical and experimental data for level fluctuations for trapped boson systems and results for statistical relaxation and decoherence in these systems with close relations to results from embedded ensembles.
