Post-Ehrenfest many-body quantum interferences far-out-of-equilibrium many-body systems — Steve Tomsovic1,4, Denis Ullmo2, Peter Schlagheck3, •Juan-Diego Urbina4, and Klaus Richter4 — 1Washington State University, USA — 2Universite Paris Sud, France — 3University of Liege, Belgium — 4University of Regensburg, Germany
Many-body quantum dynamics in isolated systems far from equilibrium generate interferences beyond the Ehrenfest time where quantum and classical expectation values diverge, with recent interest in the role these interferences play in the spreading of quantum information across the many degrees of freedom[1]. We have developed a semiclassical theory which properly incorporates such quantum interference effects and showed that, for mesoscopically populated Bose-Hubbard systems, it captures post-Ehrenfest quantum phenomena very accurately even to the point to alllow for high-precision many-body spectroscopy [2].
We present here a description of this novel approach and point out how it can be used to improve the heavily used truncated Wigner method [3] by incorporating exact degenaracies of classical actions responsible of robust many-body interference effects.
