Few-magnon excitations in Heisenberg-like models play an important role in understanding magnetism and have long been studied by various approaches. However, the quantum dynamics of magnon excitations in a finite-size spin-$S$ $XXZ$ chain with single-ion anisotropy remains unsolved. Here, we exactly solve the two-magnon (three-magnon) problem in the spin-$S$ $XXZ$ chain by reducing the few-magnons to a fictitious single particle on a one-dimensional (two-dimensional) effective lattice. Such a mapping allows us to obtain both the static and dynamical properties of the model explicitly. The zero-energy-excitation states and various types of multimagnon bound states are manifested, with the latter being interpreted as edge states on the effective lattices. Moreover, we study the real-time multimagnon dynamics by simulating single-particle quantum walks on the effective lattices.

This work is devoted to the investigation of nontrivial transport properties in many-body quantum systems. Precisely, we study transport in the steady state of spin-1/2 Heisenberg XXZ chains, driven out of equilibrium by two magnetic baths with fixed, different magnetization. We take grad

We present a temperature and magnetic field dependence study of spin transport and magnetothermal corrections to the thermal conductivity in the spin S = 1/2 integrable easy-plane regime Heisenberg chain, extending an earlier analysis based on the Bethe ansatz method. We critically discuss the low temperature, weak magnetic field behavior, the effect of magnetothermal corrections in the vicinity of the critical field and their role in recent thermal conductivity experiments in 1D quantum magnets.

We demonstrate that the exact non-equilibrium steady state of the one-dimensional Heisenberg XXZ spin chain driven by boundary Lindblad operators can be constructed explicitly with a matrix product ansatz for the non-equilibrium density matrix where the matrices satisfy a {it quadratic algebra}. This algebra turns out to be related to the quantum algebra $U_q[SU(2)]$. Coherent state techniques are introduced for the exact solution of the isotropic Heisenberg chain with and without quantum boundary fields and Lindblad terms that correspond to two different completely polarized boundary states. We show that this boundary twist leads to non-vanishing stationary currents of all spin components. Our results suggest that the matrix product ansatz can be extended to more general quantum systems kept far from equilibrium by Lindblad boundary terms.
In spin chains with local unitary evolution preserving the magnetization $S^{rm z}$, the domain-wall state $left| dots uparrow uparrow uparrow uparrow uparrow downarrow downarrow downarrow downarrow downarrow dots right>$ typically melts. At large times, a non-trivial magnetization profile develops in an expanding region around the initial position of the domain-wall. For non-integrable dynamics the melting is diffusive, with entropy production within a melted region of size $sqrt{t}$. In contrast, when the evolution is integrable, ballistic transport dominates and results in a melted region growing linearly in time, with no extensive entropy production: the spin chain remains locally in states of zero entropy at any time. Here we show that, for the integrable spin-$1/2$ XXZ chain, low-energy quantum fluctuations in the melted region give rise to an emergent Luttinger liquid which, remarkably, differs from the equilibrium one. The striking feature of this emergent Luttinger liquid is its quasi-particle charge (or Luttinger parameter $K$) which acquires a fractal dependence on the XXZ chain anisotropy parameter $Delta$.

Using an equations-of-motion method based on analytical representations of spin-operator matrix elements in the XX chain, we obtain exact long-time dynamics of a composite system consisting of a spin-$S$ central spin and an XXZ chain, with the two interacting via inhomogeneous XXZ-type hyperfine coupling. Three types of initial bath states, namely, the Neel state, the ground state, and the spin coherent state are considered. We study the reduced dynamics of both the central spin and the XXZ bath. For the Neel state, we find that strong hyperfine couplings slow down the initial decay but facilitate the long-time relaxation of the antiferromagnetic order. Moreover, for fixed hyperfine coupling a larger $S$ leads to a faster initial decay of the antiferromagnetic order. We then study the purity dynamics of an $S=1$ central spin coupled to an XXZ chain prepared in the ground state. The time-dependent purity is found to reach the highest values at the critical point. We finally study the polarization dynamics of the central spin homogeneously coupled to a bath prepared in the spin coherent state. Under the resonant condition, the polarization dynamics for $S>frac{1}{2}$ exhibits collapse-revival behaviors with fine structures. However, the collapse-revival phenomena is found to be fragile with respect to the anisotropic intrabath coupling.
