abstract

Recent years have seen significant advances, both theoretical and experimental, in our understanding of quantum many-body dynamics. Given this problem's high complexity, it is surprising that a substantial amount of this progress can be ascribed to exact analytical results. Here we review dual-unitary circuits as a particular setting leading to exact results in quantum many-body dynamics. Dual-unitary circuits constitute minimal models in which space and time are treated on an equal footings, yielding exactly solvable yet possibly chaotic evolution. They were the first in which current notions of quantum chaos could be analytically quantified, allow for a full characterisation of the dynamics of thermalisation, scrambling, and entanglement (among others), and can be experimentally realised in current quantum simulators. Dual-unitarity is a specific fruitful implementation of the more general idea of space-time duality in which the roles of space and time are exchanged to access relevant dynamical properties of quantum many-body systems.

Quantum many-body operator cascade as a route to chaos

cond-mat.stat-mech · 2026-04-17 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Local operators in quantum chaotic systems cascade toward non-local fractal structures whose dimension is tied by unitarity to the decay rate of local correlations, demonstrated exactly in dual-unitary circuits and numerically in others.

Mesoscopic Regimes of Temporal Entanglement in Ergodic Quantum Systems

quant-ph · 2026-05-08 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Generic ergodic Hamiltonian dynamics in quantum Ising chains exhibits a long mesoscopic regime in temporal entanglement that deviates from random-circuit universality, suggesting slow spectral reorganization of the influence functional.
