Finite-size scaling of eigenstate thermalization.
According to the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH), even isolated quantum systems can thermalize because the eigenstate-to-eigenstate fluctuations of typical observables vanish in the limit of large systems. Of course, isolated systems are by nature finite and the main way of computing such quantities is through numerical evaluation for finite-size systems. Therefore, the finite-size s...
متن کاملEigenstate thermalization hypothesis and quantum Jarzynski relation for pure initial states.
Since the first suggestion of the Jarzynski equality many derivations of this equality have been presented in both the classical and the quantum context. While the approaches and settings differ greatly from one another, they all appear to rely on the condition that the initial state is a thermal Gibbs state. Here, we present an investigation of work distributions in driven isolated quantum sys...
متن کاملRelevance of the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis for thermal relaxation.
We study the validity of the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) and its role for the occurrence of initial-state independent (ISI) equilibration in closed quantum many-body systems. Using the concept of dynamical typicality, we present an extensive numerical analysis of energy exchange in integrable and nonintegrable spin-1/2 systems of large size outside the range of exact diagonalizat...
متن کاملRandom Free Fermions: An Analytical Example of Eigenstate Thermalization.
Having analytical instances of the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) is of obvious interest, both for fundamental and applied reasons. This is generally a hard task, due to the belief that nonlinear interactions are basic ingredients of the thermalization mechanism. In this article we prove that random Gaussian-free fermions satisfy ETH in the multiparticle sector, by analytically comp...
متن کاملEigenstate thermalization in the two-dimensional transverse field Ising model.
We study the onset of eigenstate thermalization in the two-dimensional transverse field Ising model (2D-TFIM) in the square lattice. We consider two nonequivalent Hamiltonians: the ferromagnetic 2D-TFIM and the antiferromagnetic 2D-TFIM in the presence of a uniform longitudinal field. We use full exact diagonalization to examine the behavior of quantum chaos indicators and of the diagonal matri...
