Abstract

The time evolution of quantum many-body systems is one of the most important processes for benchmarking quantum simulators. The most curious feature of such dynamics is the growth of quantum entanglement to an amount proportional to the system size (volume law) even when interactions are local. This phenomenon has great ramifications for fundamental aspects, while its optimisation clearly has an impact on technology (e.g., for on-chip quantum networking). Here we use an integrated photonic chip with a circuit-based approach to simulate the dynamics of a spin chain and maximise the entanglement generation. The resulting entanglement is certified by constructing a second chip, which measures the entanglement between multiple distant pairs of simulated spins, as well as the block entanglement entropy. This is the first photonic simulation and optimisation of the extensive growth of entanglement in a spin chain, and opens up the use of photonic circuits for optimising quantum devices.

  • For disordered systems, dynamic disorders are associated with diffusive transport, where interference no longer affects the evolution and a classical-like spreading is found for a distance proportional to the square root of the evolution time.

    “For disordered systems a further distinction can be made: dynamic disorders are associated to diffusive transports, where interference no longer affects the evolution and a classical-like spreading is found for a distance proportional to √ T , while static disorders lead to a complete halting in the process, a phenomenon known as Anderson localization [546,547]”

  • Static disorders lead to a complete halting of the transport process, known as Anderson localization, where the wave packet localizes on the initial sites of the lattice.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
