Stationary entropies after a quench from excited states in the Ising chain

Abstract: We consider the asymptotic state after a sudden quench of the magnetic field in the transverse field quantum Ising chain starting from excited states of the pre-quench Hamiltonian. We compute the thermodynamic entropies of the generalised Gibbs and the diagonal ensembles and we find that the generalised Gibbs entropy is always twice the diagonal one. We show that particular care should be taken in extracting the thermodynamic limit since different averages of equivalent microstates give different results for t… Show more

“…the entropy of the GGE) which is the double of the diagonal entropy [68]. This equivalence has been investigated in several studies for the von Neumann entropy, both for free systems [60,61,63,65] and for interacting ones [62,[66][67][68], but not for the Rényi entropies with α = 1. Here we then perform extensive tDMRG simulations [105][106][107][108][109], to provide numerical evidences that in the limit of large chains and large subsystems, i.e., L, → ∞ with L, one has…”

“…In the simpler setting of a non-interacting model, where quasi-particles are characterized by a dispersion relation ε k there is a maximum group velocity v g allowed by the dispersion. To our best knowledge, in all the examples considered in the literature so-far (for example [21][22][23]59,60 ) correlations were found to spread with a light-cone velocity given by v g independently of the initial state. In this paper we point out for the first time that even if the dispersion of the quasi-particles after the quench is not affected by the initial state, its symmetries and in particular translation invariance can introduce additional selection rules on the momenta of the quasi-particles.…”
