Using the adaptive time-dependent density matrix renormalization group, we study the time evolution of density correlations of interacting spinless fermions on a one-dimensional lattice after a sudden change in the interaction strength. Over a broad range of model parameters, the correlation function exhibits a characteristic light-cone-like time evolution representative of a ballistic transport of information. Such behavior is observed both when quenching an insulator into the metallic region and also when quenching within the insulating region. However, when a metallic state beyond the quantum critical point is quenched deep into the insulating regime, no indication for ballistic transport is observed. Instead, stable domain walls in the density correlations emerge during the time evolution, consistent with the predictions of the Kibble-Zurek mechanism.

Using the adaptive time-dependent density-matrix renormalization group method, we study the time evolution of strongly correlated spinless fermions on a one-dimensional lattice after a sudden change of the interaction strength. For certain parameter values, two different initial states (e.g., metallic and insulating), lead to observables which become indistinguishable after relaxation. We find that the resulting quasi-stationary state is non-thermal. This result holds for both integrable and non-integrable variants of the system.

We investigate the dynamics of fermionic atoms in a high-finesse optical resonator after a sudden switch on of the coupling between the atoms and the cavity. The atoms are additionally confined by optical lattices to a ladder geometry. The tunneling mechanism on a rung of a ladder is induced by a cavity assisted Raman process. At long times after the quantum quench the arising steady state can carry a chiral current. In this work we employ exact diagonalization techniques on small system sizes to study the dissipative attractor dynamics after the quench towards the steady state and deviations of the properties of the steady state from predictions obtained by adiabatically eliminating the cavity mode.
We present a non-iterative solver based on the Schur complement method for sparse linear systems of special form which appear in Quantum Monte-Carlo (QMC) simulations of strongly interacting fermions on the lattice. While the number of floating-point operations for this solver scales as the cube of the number of lattice sites, for practically relevant lattice sizes it is still significantly faster than iterative solvers such as the Conjugate Gradient method in the regime of strong inter-fermion interactions, for example, in the vicinity of quantum phase transitions. The speed-up is even more dramatic for the solution of multiple linear systems with different right-hand sides. We present benchmark results for QMC simulations of the tight-binding models on the hexagonal graphene lattice with on-site (Hubbard) and non-local (Coulomb) interactions, and demonstrate the potential for further speed-up using GPU.
We study the non-equilibrium dynamics and transport of a PT-symmetric Luttinger liquid (LL) after an interaction quench. The system is prepared in domain wall initial state. After a quantum quench to spatially homogeneous, PT-symmetric LL, the domain wall develops into a flat central region that spreads out ballistically faster than the conventional Lieb-Robinson maximal speed. By evaluating the current inside the regular lightcone, we find a universal conductance $e^2/h$, insensitive to the strength of the PT-symmetric interaction. On the other hand, by repeating the very same time evolution with a hermitian LL Hamiltonian, the conductance is heavily renormalized by the hermitian interaction as $e^2/hK$ with $K$ the LL parameter. Our analytical results are tested numerically, confirming the universality of the conductance in the non-hermitian realm.
We investigate the time evolution of the Kondo resonance in response to a quench by applying the time-dependent numerical renormalization group (TDNRG) approach to the Anderson impurity model in the strong correlation limit. For this purpose, we deri ve within TDNRG a numerically tractable expression for the retarded two-time nonequilibrium Green function $G(t+t,t)$, and its associated time-dependent spectral function, $A(omega,t)$, for times $t$ both before and after the quench. Quenches from both mixed valence and Kondo correlated initial states to Kondo correlated final states are considered. For both cases, we find that the Kondo resonance in the zero temperature spectral function, a preformed version of which is evident at very short times $tto 0^{+}$, only fully develops at very long times $tgtrsim 1/T_{rm K}$, where $T_{rm K}$ is the Kondo temperature of the final state. In contrast, the final state satellite peaks develop on a fast time scale $1/Gamma$ during the time interval $-1/Gamma lesssim t lesssim +1/Gamma$, where $Gamma$ is the hybridization strength. Initial and final state spectral functions are recovered in the limits $trightarrow -infty$ and $trightarrow +infty$, respectively. Our formulation of two-time nonequilibrium Green functions within TDNRG provides a first step towards using this method as an impurity solver within nonequilibrium dynamical mean field theory.
