Quantum quenches in 1+ 1 dimensional conformal field theories

P Calabrese, J Cardy - Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
We review the imaginary time path integral approach to the quench dynamics of conformal
field theories. We show how this technique can be applied to the determination of the time …

Lieb-Robinson bound and the butterfly effect in quantum field theories

DA Roberts, B Swingle - Physical review letters, 2016 - APS

Upper bound on diffusivity

T Hartman, SA Hartnoll, R Mahajan - Physical Review Letters, 2017 - APS
The linear growth of operators in local quantum systems leads to an effective light cone even
if the system is nonrelativistic. We show that the consistency of diffusive transport with this …
