We characterize the early stages of the approach to equilibrium in isolated quantum systems through the evolution of the entanglement spectrum. We find that the entanglement spectrum of a subsystem evolves with at least three distinct timescales. First, on an o(1) timescale, independent of system or subsystem size and the details of the dynamics, the entanglement spectrum develops nearest-neighbor level repulsion. The second timescale sets in when the light-cone has traversed the subsystem. Between these two times, the density of states of the reduced density matrix takes a universal, scale-free 1/f form; thus, random-matrix theory captures the local statistics of the entanglement spectrum but not its global structure. The third time scale is that on which the entanglement saturates; this occurs well after the light-cone traverses the subsystem. Between the second and third times, the entanglement spectrum compresses to its thermal Marchenko-Pastur form. These features hold for chaotic Hamiltonian and Floquet dynamics as well as a range of quantum circuit models.

We study the time evolution of quantum entanglement for a specific class of quantum dynamics, namely the locally scrambled quantum dynamics, where each step of the unitary evolution is drawn from a random ensemble that is invariant under local (on-si
te) basis transformations. In this case, the average entanglement entropy follows Markovian dynamics that the entanglement property of the future state can be predicted solely based on the entanglement properties of the current state and the unitary operator at each step. We introduce the entanglement feature formulation to concisely organize the entanglement entropies over all subsystems into a many-body wave function, which allows us to describe the entanglement dynamics using an imaginary-time Schrodinger equation, such that various tools developed in quantum many-body physics can be applied. The framework enables us to investigate a variety of random quantum dynamics beyond Haar random circuits and Brownian circuits. We perform numerical simulations for these models and demonstrate the validity and prediction power of the entanglement feature approach.
Many-body localized systems in which interactions and disorder come together defy the expectations of quantum statistical mechanics: In contrast to ergodic systems, they do not thermalize when undergoing nonequilibrium dynamics. What is less clear, h
owever, is how topological features interplay with many-body localized phases as well as the nature of the transition between a topological and a trivial state within the latter. In this work, we numerically address these questions, using a combination of extensive tensor network calculations, specifically DMRG-X, as well as exact diagonalization, leading to a comprehensive characterization of Hamiltonian spectra and eigenstate entanglement properties.
Networks are topological and geometric structures used to describe systems as different as the Internet, the brain or the quantum structure of space-time. Here we define complex quantum network geometries, describing the underlying structure of growi
ng simplicial 2-complexes, i.e. simplicial complexes formed by triangles. These networks are geometric networks with energies of the links that grow according to a non-equilibrium dynamics. The evolution in time of the geometric networks is a classical evolution describing a given path of a path integral defining the evolution of quantum network states. The quantum network states are characterized by quantum occupation numbers that can be mapped respectively to the nodes, links, and triangles incident to each link of the network. We call the geometric networks describing the evolution of quantum network states the quantum geometric networks. The quantum geometric networks have many properties common to complex networks including small-world property, high clustering coefficient, high modularity, scale-free degree distribution.Moreover they can be distinguished between the Fermi-Dirac Network and the Bose-Einstein Network obeying respectively the Fermi-Dirac and Bose-Einstein statistics. We show that these networks can undergo structural phase transitions where the geometrical properties of the networks change drastically. Finally we comment on the relation between Quantum Complex Network Geometries, spin networks and triangulations.
Probing the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of quantum matter has gained renewed interest owing to immense experimental progress in artifcial quantum systems. Dynamical quantum measures such as the growth of entanglement entropy (EE) and out-of-time orde
red correlators (OTOCs) have been shown, theoretically, to provide great insight by exposing subtle quantum features invisible to traditional measures such as mass transport. However, measuring them in experiments requires either identical copies of the system, an ancilla qubit coupled to the whole system, or many measurements on a single copy, thereby making scalability extremely complex and hence, severely limiting their potential. Here, we introduce an alternate quantity $-$ the out-of-time-ordered measurement (OTOM) $-$ which involves measuring a single observable on a single copy of the system, while retaining the distinctive features of the OTOCs. We show, theoretically, that OTOMs are closely related to OTOCs in a doubled system with the same quantum statistical properties as the original system. Using exact diagonalization, we numerically simulate classical mass transport, as well as quantum dynamics through computations of the OTOC, the OTOM, and the EE in quantum spin chain models in various interesting regimes (including chaotic and many-body localized systems). Our results demonstrate that an OTOM can successfully reveal subtle aspects of quantum dynamics hidden to classical measures, and crucially, provide experimental access to them.
Monitored quantum circuits can exhibit an entanglement transition as a function of the rate of measurements, stemming from the competition between scrambling unitary dynamics and disentangling projective measurements. We study how entanglement dynami
cs in non-unitary quantum circuits can be enriched in the presence of charge conservation, using a combination of exact numerics and a mapping onto a statistical mechanics model of constrained hard-core random walkers. We uncover a charge-sharpening transition that separates different scrambling phases with volume-law scaling of entanglement, distinguished by whether measurements can efficiently reveal the total charge of the system. We find that while Renyi entropies grow sub-ballistically as $sqrt{t}$ in the absence of measurement, for even an infinitesimal rate of measurements, all average Renyi entropies grow ballistically with time $sim t$. We study numerically the critical behavior of the charge-sharpening and entanglement transitions in U(1) circuits, and show that they exhibit emergent Lorentz invariance and can also be diagnosed using scalable local ancilla probes. Our statistical mechanical mapping technique readily generalizes to arbitrary Abelian groups, and offers a general framework for studying dissipatively-stabilized symmetry-breaking and topological orders.
