SUMMARY:Scaling laws for spreading the quantum information - Dr Adam Nahum
 \, University of Oxford
DTSTART:20171012T131500Z
DTEND:20171012T141500Z
UID:TALK82241@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:David Khmelnitskii
DESCRIPTION:I will describe minimal models for many-body quantum dynamics 
 which allow analytical results for the growth of quantum entanglement and 
 for the spreading of quantum operators in the Heisenberg picture (the quan
 tum 'butterfly effect'). These minimal models are random quantum circuits.
  I will describe mappings to paradigmatic problems in classical statistica
 l mechanics\, for example the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation\, and our conje
 ctures for universal scaling forms in generic non-integrable models.\n
