Many-body Localization in Clean Chains with Long-Range Interactions
Physical review(2023)
Abstract
The strong long-range interaction leads to localization in the closed quantum system without disorders. Employing the exact diagonalization method, the author numerically investigates thermalization and many-body localization in translational invariant quantum chains with finite Coulomb interactions. In the computational basis, excluding all trivial degeneracies, the interaction-induced localization is well demonstrated in aspects of level statistics, eigenstate expectation values, and the Anderson localization on graphs constructed of the many-body basis. The nature of localization for generic eigenstates is attributed to the quasi-disorder from the power-law interactions. However, due to the real-space symmetries, the long-time dynamics is dominated by the degenerate eigenstates and eventually reach homogeneity in real space. On the other hand, the entanglement entropy exhibits the size-dependence beyond the area law for the same reason, even deep in the localized state, indicating an incomplete localization in real space.
