abstract
We show that the time-dependence of correlation functions in an extended quantum system in d dimensions, which is prepared in the ground state of some hamiltonian and then evolves without dissipation according to some other hamiltonian, may be extracted using methods of boundary critical phenomena in d+1 dimensions. For d=1 particularly powerful results are available using conformal field theory. These are checked against those available from solvable models. They may be explained in terms of a picture, valid more generally, whereby quasiparticles, entangled over regions of the order of the correlation length in the initial state, then propagate classically through the system.

Generalized quantum dimensions from SymTFTs classify massless and massive RG flows in pseudo-Hermitian systems and relate coset constructions to domain walls.
In finite-volume massive free scalar field theory after local quench, spacing ratios of two-point function extrema follow GOE statistics and an extrema-based form factor shows RMT dip-ramp-plateau.
Introduces crosscap quenches in CFTs and holographic models to derive universal entanglement entropy evolution, validated by numerics in spin systems.
A form factor framework is introduced to compute expectation values and time evolution after an integrable boundary quantum quench, applied to the Lee-Yang model at conformal and massive points with TCSA validation.
