Mean-field dynamics of an infinite-range interacting quantum system: chaos, dynamical phase transition, and localisation
Abstract
We investigate the dynamical properties of the XY spin 1/2 chain with infinite-range transverse interactions and find a dynamical phase transition with a chaotic dynamical phase. In the latter, we find non-vanishing finite-time Lyapunov exponents and intermittent behavior signaled by fast and slow entropy growth periods. Further, we study the XY chain with a local self-consistent transverse field and observe a localization phase transition. We show that localization stabilizes the chaotic dynamical phase.
