Fermionic Quantum Circuits Reproduce Experimental Two-dimensional Many-body Localization Transition Point

Joey H. Li, Amos Chan, Thorsten B. Wahl

While many-body localization (MBL) is a well-established phenomenon in one-dimension, the fate of higher-dimensional strongly disordered systems in the infinite-time limit is a topic of current debate. The latest experiments as well as several recent numerical studies indicate that such systems behave many-body localized -- at least on practically relevant time scales. However, thus far, theoretical approaches have been unable to quantitatively reproduce experimentally measured MBL-to-thermal transition points, an important requirement to demonstrate their validity. Here, we develop a formalism to apply fermionic quantum circuits combined with automatic differentiation to simulate two-dimensional MBL systems realized in optical lattice experiments with fermions. Using entanglement-based features, we obtain a phase transition point in excellent agreement with the experimentally measured value. We argue that our approach best captures the underlying charge-density-wave experiments and calculate other quantities which can be compared to future experiments, such as the mean localization lengths.

Stark many-body localization with long-range interactions

Xiangping Jiang, Rui Qi, Yang Sheng +2 more

In one-dimensional (1D) disorder-free interacting systems, a sufficiently strong linear potential can induce localization of the many-body eigenstates, a phenomenon dubbed as Stark many-body localization (MBL). In this paper, we investigate the fate of Stark MBL in 1D spinless fermions systems with long-range interactions, specifically focusing on the role of interaction strength. We obtain the Stark MBL phase diagrams by computing the mean gap ratio and many-body inverse participation ratio at half-filling. We show that, for short-range interactions, there is a qualitative symmetry between the limits of weak and strong interactions. However, this symmetry is absent in the case of long-range interactions, where the system is always Stark many-body localized at strong interactions, regardless of the linear potential strength. Furthermore, we study the dynamics of imbalance and entanglement with various initial states using time-dependent variational principle (TDVP) numerical methods. We reveal that the dynamical quantities display a strong dependence on the initial conditions, which suggests that the Hilbert-space fragmentation precludes thermalization. Our results demonstrate the robustness of Stark MBL even in the presence of long-range interactions and offer an avenue to explore MBL in disorder-free systems with long-range interactions.

Quantum circuits reproduce the experimental two-dimensional many-body localization transition point

Joey Li, Amos Chan, Thorsten B. Wahl

While many studies point towards the existence of many-body localization (MBL) in one dimension, the fate of higher-dimensional strongly disordered systems is a topic of current debate. The latest experiments as well as several recent numerical studies indicate that such systems behave many-body localized---at least on practically relevant timescales. However, thus far, theoretical approaches have been unable to quantitatively reproduce experimentally measured MBL features---an important requirement to demonstrate their validity. In this Letter, we use fermionic quantum circuits as a variational method to approximate the full set of eigenstates of two-dimensional MBL systems realized in fermionic optical lattice experiments. Using entanglement-based features, we obtain a phase transition point in excellent agreement with the experimentally measured value. Moreover, we calculate the filling-fraction-dependent MBL phase diagram. We argue that our approach best captures the underlying charge-density-wave experiments and compute the mean localization lengths, which can be compared to future experiments.
