In Grossu et al. (2012) we presented a Chaos Many-Body Engine (CMBE) toy-model for chaos analysis of relativistic nuclear collisions at 4.5 A GeV/c (the SKM 200 collaboration) which was later extended to Cu + Cu collisions at the maximum BNL energy. Inspired by existing quark billiards, the main goal of this work was extending CMBE to partons. Thus, we first implemented a confinement algorithm founded on some intuitive assumptions: 1) the system can be decomposed into a set of two or three-body quark white clusters; 2) the bi-particle force is limited to the domain of each cluster; 3) the physical solution conforms to the minimum potential energy requirement. Color conservation was also treated as part of the reactions logic module. As an example of use, we proposed a toy-model for p + p collisions at sqrt(s)=10 GeV and we compared it with HIJING. Another direction of interest was related to retarded interactions. Following this purpose, we implemented an Euler retarded algorithm and we tested it on a simple two-body system with attractive inverse-square-law force. First results suggest that retarded interactions may contribute to the Virial theorem anomalies (dark matter) encountered for gravitational systems (e.g. clusters of galaxies). On the other hand, the time reverse functionality implemented in CMBE v03 could be used together with retardation for analyzing the Loschmidt paradox. Regarding the application design, it is important to mention the code was refactored to SOLID. In this context, we have also written more than one hundred unit and integration tests, which represent an important indicator of application logic validity.

We discuss classical algorithms for approximating the largest eigenvalue of quantum spin and fermionic Hamiltonians based on semidefinite programming relaxation methods. First, we consider traceless $2$-local Hamiltonians $H$ describing a system of $n$ qubits. We give an efficient algorithm that outputs a separable state whose energy is at least $lambda_{max}/O(log n)$, where $lambda_{max}$ is the maximum eigenvalue of $H$. We also give a simplified proof of a theorem due to Lieb that establishes the existence of a separable state with energy at least $lambda_{max}/9$. Secondly, we consider a system of $n$ fermionic modes and traceless Hamiltonians composed of quadratic and quartic fermionic operators. We give an efficient algorithm that outputs a fermionic Gaussian state whose energy is at least $lambda_{max}/O(nlog n)$. Finally, we show that Gaussian states can vastly outperform Slater determinant states commonly used in the Hartree-Fock method. We give a simple family of Hamiltonians for which Gaussian states and Slater determinants approximate $lambda_{max}$ within a fraction $1-O(n^{-1})$ and $O(n^{-1})$ respectively.
Chaotic quantum many-body dynamics typically lead to relaxation of local observables. In this process, known as quantum thermalization, a subregion reaches a thermal state due to quantum correlations with the remainder of the system, which acts as an intrinsic bath. While the bath is generally assumed to be unobserved, modern quantum science experiments have the ability to track both subsystem and bath at a microscopic level. Here, by utilizing this ability, we discover that measurement results associated with small subsystems exhibit universal random statistics following chaotic quantum many-body dynamics, a phenomenon beyond the standard paradigm of quantum thermalization. We explain these observations with an ensemble of pure states, defined via correlations with the bath, that dynamically acquires a close to random distribution. Such random ensembles play an important role in quantum information science, associated with quantum supremacy tests and device verification, but typically require highly-engineered, time-dependent control for their preparation. In contrast, our approach uncovers random ensembles naturally emerging from evolution with a time-independent Hamiltonian. As an application of this emergent randomness, we develop a benchmarking protocol which estimates the many-body fidelity during generic chaotic evolution and demonstrate it using our Rydberg quantum simulator. Our work has wide ranging implications for the understanding of quantum many-body chaos and thermalization in terms of emergent randomness and at the same time paves the way for applications of this concept in a much wider context.
The spectral form factor (SFF), characterizing statistics of energy eigenvalues, is a key diagnostic of many-body quantum chaos. In addition, partial spectral form factors (pSFFs) can be defined which refer to subsystems of the many-body system. They provide unique insights into energy eigenstate statistics of many-body systems, as we show in an analysis on the basis of random matrix theory and of the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis. We propose a protocol which allows the measurement of SFF and pSFFs in quantum many-body spin models, within the framework of randomized measurements. Aimed to probe dynamical properties of quantum many-body systems, our scheme employs statistical correlations of local random operations which are applied at different times in a single experiment. Our protocol provides a unified testbed to probe many-body quantum chaotic behavior, thermalization and many-body localization in closed quantum systems which we illustrate with simulations for Hamiltonian and Floquet many-body spin-systems.
Linking thermodynamic variables like temperature $T$ and the measure of chaos, the Lyapunov exponents $lambda$, is a question of fundamental importance in many-body systems. By using nonlinear fluid equations in one and three dimensions, we prove that in thermalised flows $lambda propto sqrt{T}$, in agreement with results from frustrated spin systems. This reveals an underlying universality and provides evidence for recent conjectures on the thermal scaling of $lambda$. We also reconcile seemingly disparate effects -- equilibration on one hand and pushing systems out-of-equilibrium on the other -- of many-body chaos by relating $lambda$ to $T$ through the dynamical structures of the flow.
Characterizing states of matter through the lens of their ergodic properties is a fascinating new direction of research. In the quantum realm, the many-body localization (MBL) was proposed to be the paradigmatic ergodicity breaking phenomenon, which extends the concept of Anderson localization to interacting systems. At the same time, random matrix theory has established a powerful framework for characterizing the onset of quantum chaos and ergodicity (or the absence thereof) in quantum many-body systems. Here we numerically study the spectral statistics of disordered interacting spin chains, which represent prototype models expected to exhibit MBL. We study the ergodicity indicator $g=log_{10}(t_{rm H}/t_{rm Th})$, which is defined through the ratio of two characteristic many-body time scales, the Thouless time $t_{rm Th}$ and the Heisenberg time $t_{rm H}$, and hence resembles the logarithm of the dimensionless conductance introduced in the context of Anderson localization. We argue that the ergodicity breaking transition in interacting spin chains occurs when both time scales are of the same order, $t_{rm Th} approx t_{rm H}$, and $g$ becomes a system-size independent constant. Hence, the ergodicity breaking transition in many-body systems carries certain analogies with the Anderson localization transition. Intriguingly, using a Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless correlation length we observe a scaling solution of $g$ across the transition, which allows for detection of the crossing point in finite systems. We discuss the observation that scaled results in finite systems by increasing the system size exhibit a flow towards the quantum chaotic regime.
