Determining the role of initial conditions in the late time evolution is a key issue for the theory of nonequilibrium dynamics of isolated quantum systems. Here we extend the theory of quantum quenches to the case in which before the quench the system is in an excited state. In particular, we show perturbatively in the size of the quench (and for arbitrarily strong interactions among the quasiparticles) that persistent oscillations of one-point functions require the presence of a one-quasiparticle contribution to the nonequilibrium state, as originally shown in [J. Phys. A 47 (2014) 402001] for the quenches from the ground state. Also in the present case, we argue that the results generically have nonperturbative implications. Oscillations staying undamped within the accessible time interval, far beyond the perturbative time scale, are nowadays observed in numerical simulations.

  1. A Toy Model for Topological Entanglement Features in 1+1D Integrable Quantum Field Theory

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In the Federbush model, branch-point twist field form factors and first-order quench corrections are independent of the topological coupling λ, so Rényi entropies of the infinite-volume vacuum match two free Dirac fermions.

  2. Time Evolution of the Symmetry Resolved Entanglement Entropy after a Mass Quench

    hep-th 2025-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For a mass quench in the Ising field theory, the Z2-resolved Rényi entropies grow linearly at the same rate as the total entropy, with subleading oscillatory corrections now computed analytically via composite twist fields.
