Title:
Many-body localization in higher dimensions and shallow quantum circuits

Speaker:
Arijeet Pal

Abstract:
Dynamics of disordered, quantum many-body systems provide a classic physical setting for the breakdown of quantum ergodicity, known as many-body localization (MBL). In this novel out of equilibrium quantum phase, the many-body system acts as a local quantum memory along with preserving quantum-coherent macroscopic behavior even in highly excited states. I will review the properties of the MBL phase in one dimension and its efficient simulation using shallow quantum circuits (QC).
