--- _id: '12790' abstract: - lang: eng text: Motivated by the recent discoveries of superconductivity in bilayer and trilayer graphene, we theoretically investigate superconductivity and other interaction-driven phases in multilayer graphene stacks. To this end, we study the density of states of multilayer graphene with up to four layers at the single-particle band structure level in the presence of a transverse electric field. Among the considered structures, tetralayer graphene with rhombohedral (ABCA) stacking reaches the highest density of states. We study the phases that can arise in ABCA graphene by tuning the carrier density and transverse electric field. For a broad region of the tuning parameters, the presence of strong Coulomb repulsion leads to a spontaneous spin and valley symmetry breaking via Stoner transitions. Using a model that incorporates the spontaneous spin and valley polarization, we explore the Kohn-Luttinger mechanism for superconductivity driven by repulsive Coulomb interactions. We find that the strongest superconducting instability is in the p-wave channel, and occurs in proximity to the onset of Stoner transitions. Interestingly, we find a range of densities and transverse electric fields where superconductivity develops out of a strongly corrugated, singly connected Fermi surface in each valley, leading to a topologically nontrivial chiral p+ip superconducting state with an even number of copropagating chiral Majorana edge modes. Our work establishes ABCA-stacked tetralayer graphene as a promising platform for observing strongly correlated physics and topological superconductivity. acknowledgement: E.B. and T.H. were supported by the European Research Council (ERC) under grant HQMAT (Grant Agreement No. 817799), by the Israel-USA Binational Science Foundation (BSF), and by a Research grant from Irving and Cherna Moskowitz. article_number: '104502' article_processing_charge: No article_type: original author: - first_name: Areg full_name: Ghazaryan, Areg id: 4AF46FD6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Ghazaryan orcid: 0000-0001-9666-3543 - first_name: Tobias full_name: Holder, Tobias last_name: Holder - first_name: Erez full_name: Berg, Erez last_name: Berg - first_name: Maksym full_name: Serbyn, Maksym id: 47809E7E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Serbyn orcid: 0000-0002-2399-5827 citation: ama: Ghazaryan A, Holder T, Berg E, Serbyn M.

Here, we study infinite-temperature energy transport in the kinetically constrained PXP model describing Rydberg atom quantum simulators. Our state-of-the-art numerical simulations, including exact diagonalization and time-evolving block decimation methods, reveal the existence of two distinct transport regimes. At moderate times, the energy-energy correlation function displays periodic oscillations due to families of eigenstates forming different su(2) representations hidden within the spectrum. These families of eigenstates generalize the quantum many-body scarred states found in previous works and leave an imprint on the infinite-temperature energy transport. At later times, we observe a long-lived superdiffusive transport regime that we attribute to the proximity of a nearby integrable point. While generic strong deformations of the PXP model indeed restore diffusive transport, adding a strong chemical potential intriguingly gives rise to a well-converged superdiffusive exponent z≈3/2. Our results suggest constrained models to be potential hosts of novel transport regimes and call for developing an analytic understanding of their energy transport. acknowledgement: "We would like to thank Alexios Michailidis, Sarang Gopalakrishnan, and Achilleas Lazarides for useful comments.

The interplay of thermal and nonergodic behavior in these systems gives rise to a rich phase diagram, whose exploration is an active field of research. In this paper, we study a bosonic Hubbard model featuring two particle species representing the bath and the disordered system. Using state-of-the-art numerical techniques, we investigate the dynamics of the model in different regimes, based on which we obtain a tentative phase diagram as a function of coupling strength and bath size. When the bath is composed of a single particle, we observe clear signatures of a transition from an MBL proximity effect to a delocalized phase. Increasing the bath size, however, its thermalizing effect becomes stronger and eventually the whole system delocalizes in the range of moderate interaction strengths studied. In this regime, we characterize particle transport, revealing diffusive behavior of the originally localized bosons. acknowledgement: "We thank A. A. Michailidis and A.

A key requirement for a comprehensive quantitative theory is the accurate determination of these materials' band structure parameters. However, this task is challenging due to the intricate band structures and the indirect nature of experimental probes. In this work, we introduce a general framework to derive band structure parameters from experimental data using deep neural networks. We applied our method to the penetration field capacitance measurement of trilayer graphene, an effective probe of its density of states. First, we demonstrate that a trained deep network gives accurate predictions for the penetration field capacitance as a function of tight-binding parameters. Next, we use the fast and accurate predictions from the trained network to automatically determine tight-binding parameters directly from experimental data, with extracted parameters being in a good agreement with values in the literature. We conclude by discussing potential applications of our method to other materials and experimental techniques beyond penetration field capacitance. acknowledgement: A.F.Y. acknowledges primary support from the Department of Energy under award DE-SC0020043, and additional support from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation under award GBMF9471 for group operations. article_number: '125411' article_processing_charge: No article_type: original author: - first_name: Paul M full_name: Henderson, Paul M id: 13C09E74-18D9-11E9-8878-32CFE5697425 last_name: Henderson orcid: 0000-0002-5198-7445 - first_name: Areg full_name: Ghazaryan, Areg id: 4AF46FD6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Ghazaryan orcid: 0000-0001-9666-3543 - first_name: Alexander A. full_name: Zibrov, Alexander A. last_name: Zibrov - first_name: Andrea F. full_name: Young, Andrea F. last_name: Young - first_name: Maksym full_name: Serbyn, Maksym id: 47809E7E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Serbyn orcid: 0000-0002-2399-5827 citation: ama: 'Henderson PM, Ghazaryan A, Zibrov AA, Young AF, Serbyn M.

In this work, we introduce a hitherto unexplored family of kinetically constrained models featuring conserved particle number and strong inversion-symmetry breaking due to facilitated hopping. We demonstrate that these models provide a generic example of so-called quantum Hilbert space fragmentation, that is manifested in disconnected sectors in the Hilbert space that are not apparent in the computational basis. Quantum Hilbert space fragmentation leads to an exponential in system size number of eigenstates with exactly zero entanglement entropy across several bipartite cuts. These eigenstates can be probed dynamically using quenches from simple initial product states. In addition, we study the particle spreading under unitary dynamics launched from the domain wall state, and find faster than diffusive dynamics at high particle densities, that crosses over into logarithmically slow relaxation at smaller densities. Using a classically simulable cellular automaton, we reproduce the logarithmic dynamics observed in the quantum case. Our work suggests that particle conserving constrained models with inversion symmetry breaking realize so far unexplored dynamical behavior and invite their further theoretical and experimental studies. acknowledgement: "We would like to thank Raimel A.

For a random initialization, the optimization typically leads to local minima with poor performance, motivating the search for initialization strategies of QAOA variational parameters. Although numerous heuristic initializations exist, an analytical understanding and performance guarantees for large p remain evasive.We introduce a greedy initialization of QAOA which guarantees improving performance with an increasing number of layers. Our main result is an analytic construction of 2p + 1 transition states—saddle points with a unique negative curvature direction—for QAOA with p + 1 layers that use the local minimum of QAOA with p layers. Transition states connect to new local minima, which are guaranteed to lower the energy compared to the minimum found for p layers. We use the GREEDY procedure to navigate the exponentially increasing with p number of local minima resulting from the recursive application of our analytic construction. The performance of the GREEDY procedure matches available initialization strategies while providing a guarantee for the minimal energy to decrease with an increasing number of layers p.

This motivates the development of efficient approaches to facilitate the control of such systems and enable the preparation of nontrivial quantum states. Here we formulate an approach to control quantum systems based on matrix product states (MPSs). We compare counterdiabatic and leakage minimization approaches to the so-called local steering problem that consists in finding the best value of the control parameters for generating a unitary evolution of the specific MPS in a given direction. In order to benchmark the different approaches, we apply them to the generalization of the PXP model known to exhibit coherent quantum dynamics due to quantum many-body scars. We find that the leakage-based approach generally outperforms the counterdiabatic framework and use it to construct a Floquet model with quantum scars. We perform the first steps towards global trajectory optimization and demonstrate entanglement steering capabilities in the generalized PXP model. Finally, we apply our leakage minimization approach to construct quantum scars in the periodically driven nonintegrable Ising model. acknowledgement: We thank A. A.

We consider a specific example of such a response, the orbital current, and show that the sign of the response reflects the Z2 topological index, i.e., the orbital current changes sign at the transition between trivial and topological insulator phases.

In our recent work [Phys. Rev. Lett. 126, 040602 (2021)], we demonstrated that one-dimensional DQPTs can be produced by two distinct mechanisms, namely semiclassical precession and entanglement generation, leading to the definition of precession (pDQPTs) and entanglement (eDQPTs) dynamical quantum phase transitions. In this manuscript, we extend and investigate the notion of p- and eDQPTs in two-dimensional systems by considering semi-infinite ladders of varying width. For square lattices, we find that pDQPTs and eDQPTs persist and are characterized by similar phenomenology as in 1D: pDQPTs are associated with a magnetization sign change and a wide entanglement gap, while eDQPTs correspond to suppressed local observables and avoided crossings in the entanglement spectrum. However, DQPTs show higher sensitivity to the ladder width and other details, challenging the extrapolation to the thermodynamic limit especially for eDQPTs. Moving to honeycomb lattices, we also demonstrate that lattices with an odd number of nearest neighbors give rise to phenomenologies beyond the one-dimensional classification.' acknowledgement: "We acknowledge support by the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (Grant Agreement No. 850899).\r\nS.D.N. also acknowledges funding from the Institute of Science and Technology (IST) Austria, and from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Grant Agreement No. 754411." article_number: '165149' article_processing_charge: No article_type: original author: - first_name: Stefano full_name: De Nicola, Stefano id: 42832B76-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: De Nicola orcid: 0000-0002-4842-6671 - first_name: Alexios full_name: Michailidis, Alexios id: 36EBAD38-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Michailidis - first_name: Maksym full_name: Serbyn, Maksym id: 47809E7E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Serbyn orcid: 0000-0002-2399-5827 citation: ama: De Nicola S, Michailidis A, Serbyn M.

For instance, upon applying a perpendicular electric field, its band structure exhibits several off-center Dirac points (so-called Dirac gullies) in each valley. Here, the formation of Dirac gullies and the interaction-induced breakdown of gully coherence is explored via magnetotransport measurements in high-quality Bernal-stacked (ABA) trilayer graphene. At zero magnetic field, multiple Lifshitz transitions indicating the formation of Dirac gullies are identified. In the quantum Hall regime, the emergence of Dirac gullies is evident as an increase in Landau level degeneracy. When tuning both electric and magnetic fields, electron–electron interactions can be controllably enhanced until, beyond critical electric and magnetic fields, the gully degeneracy is eventually lifted. The arising correlated ground state is consistent with a previously predicted nematic phase that spontaneously breaks the rotational gully symmetry. acknowledgement: "We acknowledge funding from the Center for Nanoscience (CeNS) and by the Deutsche\r\nForschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation) under Germany’s Excellence Strategy-EXC-2111-390814868 (MCQST).

While the MBL phase is robust to weak local perturbations, the fate of an MBL system coupled to a thermalizing quantum system that represents a “heat bath” is an open question that is actively investigated theoretically and experimentally. In this work, we consider the stability of an Anderson insulator with a finite density of particles interacting with a single mobile impurity—a small quantum bath. We give perturbative arguments that support the stability of localization in the strong interaction regime. Large-scale tensor network simulations of dynamics are employed to corroborate the presence of the localized phase and give quantitative predictions in the thermodynamic limit. We develop a phenomenological description of the dynamics in the strong interaction regime, and we demonstrate that the impurity effectively turns the Anderson insulator into an MBL phase, giving rise to nontrivial entanglement dynamics well captured by our phenomenology. acknowledged_ssus: - _id: ScienComp acknowledgement: We acknowledge useful discussions with M.

In contrast, many real-world chaotic phenomena, e.g., weather, arise in systems with many (formally infinite) degrees of freedom, which limits direct quantitative analysis of such systems using chaos theory. In the present work, we demonstrate that the hydrodynamic pilot-wave systems offer a bridge between low- and high-dimensional chaotic phenomena by allowing for a systematic study of how the former connects to the latter. Specifically, we present experimental results, which show the formation of low-dimensional chaotic attractors upon destabilization of regular dynamics and a final transition to high-dimensional chaos via the merging of distinct chaotic regions through a crisis bifurcation. Moreover, we show that the post-crisis dynamics of the system can be rationalized as consecutive scatterings from the nonattracting chaotic sets with lifetimes following exponential distributions.

Recently the fate of a localized system coupled to a thermalizing system viewed as a quantum bath received significant theoretical and experimental attention. In this work, we study a mobile impurity, representing a small quantum bath, that interacts locally with an Anderson insulator with a finite density of localized particles. Using static Hartree approximation to obtain an effective disorder strength, we formulate an analytic criterion for the perturbative stability of the localization. Next, we use an approximate dynamical Hartree method and the quasi-exact time-evolved block decimation (TEBD) algorithm to study the dynamics of the system. We find that the dynamical Hartree approach which completely ignores entanglement between the impurity and localized particles predicts the delocalization of the system. In contrast, the full numerical simulation of the unitary dynamics with TEBD suggests the stability of localization on numerically accessible timescales. Finally, using an extension of the density matrix renormalization group algorithm to excited states (DMRG-X), we approximate the highly excited eigenstates of the system. We find that the impurity remains localized in the eigenstates and entanglement is enhanced in a finite region around the position of the impurity, confirming the dynamical predictions. Dynamics and the DMRG-X results provide compelling evidence for the stability of localization. acknowledged_ssus: - _id: ScienComp acknowledgement: We thank M. Ljubotina for insightful discussions.

In this work, we introduce a hitherto unexplored family of kinetically constrained models featuring a conserved particle number and strong inversion-symmetry breaking due to facilitated hopping. We demonstrate that these models provide a generic example of so-called quantum Hilbert space fragmentation, that is manifested in disconnected sectors in the Hilbert space that are not apparent in the computational basis. Quantum Hilbert space fragmentation leads to an exponential in system size number of eigenstates with exactly zero entanglement entropy across several bipartite cuts. These eigenstates can be probed dynamically using quenches from simple initial product states. In addition, we study the particle spreading under unitary dynamics launched from the domain wall state, and find faster than diffusive dynamics at high particle densities, that crosses over into logarithmically slow relaxation at smaller densities. Using a classically simulable cellular automaton, we reproduce the logarithmic dynamics observed in the quantum case. Our work suggests that particle conserving constrained models with inversion symmetry breaking realize so far unexplored universality classes of dynamics and invite their further theoretical and experimental studies. article_number: '2210.15607' article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Pietro full_name: Brighi, Pietro id: 4115AF5C-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Brighi orcid: 0000-0002-7969-2729 - first_name: Marko full_name: Ljubotina, Marko id: F75EE9BE-5C90-11EA-905D-16643DDC885E last_name: Ljubotina orcid: 0000-0003-0038-7068 - first_name: Maksym full_name: Serbyn, Maksym id: 47809E7E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Serbyn orcid: 0000-0002-2399-5827 citation: ama: Brighi P, Ljubotina M, Serbyn M.

We embed a twodimensional Al-InAs hybrid system in a resonant microwave circuit, probing the breakdown of superconductivity due to an applied magnetic field. We find a fingerprint from the two-component nature of the hybrid system, and quantitatively compare with a theory that includes the contribution of intraband p±ip pairing in the InAs, as well as the emergence of Bogoliubov-Fermi surfaces due to magnetic field. Separately resolving the Al and InAs contributions allows us to determine the carrier density and mobility in the InAs. acknowledged_ssus: - _id: M-Shop - _id: NanoFab acknowledgement: M.

The quantum hardware is used to implement a variational wave function and measure observables, whereas the classical computer is used to store and update the variational parameters. The optimization landscape of expressive variational ansätze is however dominated by large regions in parameter space, known as barren plateaus, with vanishing gradients, which prevents efficient optimization. In this work we propose a general algorithm to avoid barren plateaus in the initialization and throughout the optimization. To this end we define a notion of weak barren plateaus (WBPs) based on the entropies of local reduced density matrices. The presence of WBPs can be efficiently quantified using recently introduced shadow tomography of the quantum state with a classical computer. We demonstrate that avoidance of WBPs suffices to ensure sizable gradients in the initialization. In addition, we demonstrate that decreasing the gradient step size, guided by the entropies allows WBPs to be avoided during the optimization process. This paves the way for efficient barren plateau-free optimization on near-term devices.

Using simple scaling arguments and an analysis of various models for which rigorous results are available, we find that these measures can be particularly adversely affected by the strong finite-size effects observed in nearly all numerical studies of many-body localization. This severely impacts their utility in probing the transition and the localized phase. In light of this analysis, we discuss a recent study (Šuntajs et al., 2020) of the behaviour of the Thouless energy and level repulsion in disordered spin chains, and its implications for the question of whether MBL is a true phase of matter. article_number: '168415' article_processing_charge: No article_type: original author: - first_name: D.

We investigate nonequilibrium dynamics after rapid quenches in a many-body system composed of 3 to 200 strongly interacting qubits in one and two spatial dimensions. Using a programmable quantum simulator based on Rydberg atom arrays, we show that coherent revivals associated with so-called quantum many-body scars can be stabilized by periodic driving, which generates a robust subharmonic response akin to discrete time-crystalline order. We map Hilbert space dynamics, geometry dependence, phase diagrams, and system-size dependence of this emergent phenomenon, demonstrating new ways to steer complex dynamics in many-body systems and enabling potential applications in quantum information science. acknowledgement: 'We thank many members of the Harvard AMO community, particularly E.

Identifying systems where at least some eigenstates are nonthermal is an outstanding question. In this Letter we show that interacting quantum models that have a nullspace—a degenerate subspace of eigenstates at zero energy (zero modes), which corresponds to infinite temperature, provide a route to nonthermal eigenstates. We analytically show the existence of a zero mode which can be represented as a matrix product state for a certain class of local Hamiltonians. In the more general case we use a subspace disentangling algorithm to generate an orthogonal basis of zero modes characterized by increasing entanglement entropy. We show evidence for an area-law entanglement scaling of the least-entangled zero mode in the broad parameter regime, leading to a conjecture that all local Hamiltonians with the nullspace feature zero modes with area-law entanglement scaling and, as such, break the strong thermalization hypothesis. Finally, we find zero modes in constrained models and propose a setup for observing their experimental signatures. acknowledgement: "We acknowledge useful discussions with V. Gritsev and A.

Recently, quench experiments in Rydberg atom arrays [Bluvstein et al. Science 371, 1355 (2021)] demonstrated that coherent revivals associated with quantum many-body scars can be stabilized by periodic driving, generating stable subharmonic responses over a wide parameter regime. We analyze a simple, related model where these phenomena originate from spatiotemporal ordering in an effective Floquet unitary, corresponding to discrete time-crystalline behavior in a prethermal regime. Unlike conventional discrete time crystals, the subharmonic response exists only for Néel-like initial states, associated with quantum scars. We predict robustness to perturbations and identify emergent timescales that could be observed in future experiments. Our results suggest a route to controlling entanglement in interacting quantum systems by combining periodic driving with many-body scars. acknowledgement: We thank Dmitry Abanin, Ehud Altman, Iris Cong, Sepehr Ebadi, Alex Keesling, Harry Levine, Ahmed Omran, Hannes Pichler, Rhine Samajdar, Guilia Semeghini, Tout Wang, Norman Yao, and Harry Zhou or stimulating discussions.
