Based on an exact treatment we study the non-equilibrium dynamics of hard-core bosons on one-dimensional lattices. Starting from a pure Fock state we find that quasi-long range correlations develop very fast in the system, and they lead to the emergence of quasi-condensates at finite momentum [1]. The exponent observed in the power-law decay of the one-particle density matrix, which develops dynamically, is the same that has been proven to be universal in the equilibrium case [2]. We also study the time evolution of clouds of hard-core bosons when they are released from a harmonic trap. In this case we show that the momentum distribution of the free expanding hard-core bosons approaches to the one of noninteracting fermions, in contrast to the known behavior in equilibrium systems [3].
