The quantum Mpemba effect is the counterintuitive nonequilibrium phenomenon wherein
the dynamic restoration of a broken symmetry occurs more rapidly when the initial state …

In this work, we explore the interplay of confinement, string breaking and entanglement
asymmetry on a 1D quantum Ising chain. We consider the evolution of an initial domain wall …

A bstract Global symmetries of quantum many-body systems can be spontaneously broken.
Whenever this mechanism happens, the ground state is degenerate and one encounters an …

Hawking's discovery that black holes can evaporate through radiation emission has posed a
number of questions that with time became fundamental hallmarks for a quantum theory of …

Entanglement asymmetry is a quantity recently introduced to measure how much a
symmetry is broken in a part of an extended quantum system. It has been employed to …

Symmetry breaking is a fundamental concept in understanding quantum phases of matter,
studied so far mostly through the lens of local order parameters. Recently, a new …

Entanglement asymmetry is a novel quantity that, using entanglement methods, measures
how much a symmetry is broken in a part of an extended quantum system. So far, it has only …

Topological excitations or defects such as solitons are ubiquitous throughout physics,
supporting numerous interesting phenomena like zero-energy modes with exotic statistics …

In this paper, we consider the Rényi entanglement asymmetry of excited states in the (1+ 1)
dimensional free compact boson conformal field theory (CFT) at equilibrium. We obtain a …

The entanglement asymmetry is an observable independent tool to investigate the
relaxation of quantum many-body systems through the restoration of an initially broken …
