Colloquium : Many-body localization, thermalization, and entanglement
Open accessAbstract
The route of a physical system toward equilibrium and thermalization has been the subject of discussion and controversy since the time of Boltzmann. This Colloquium reviews the recent progress in understanding many-body localization, a phase of matter in which quantum mechanics and disorder conspire to prohibit thermalization altogether. Many new phenomena emerge in lieu of conventional statistical mechanics and may be observed in systems of ultracold atoms, superconducting qubits, and certain quantum materials.

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.
