SUMMARY:Quench dynamics of the anisotropic Heisenberg model through an
  exact approach\, Condensed Matter Theory Group Seminar\, Wenshuo Liu\
 , Rutgers University
DESCRIPTION:In this talk I will present the analytical approach we dev
 eloped for the study of the quench dynamics of the anisotropic Heisenb
 erg model (XXZ model) on the infinite line. Our approach gives the exa
 ct time-dependent wavefunctions after a quench in an integral form for
  any initial state and for any anisotropy ∆ by means of a generalize
 d Yudson contour representation. We calculate the evolution of several
  observables from two particular initial states: starting from a local
  N`eel state we calculate the time evolution of the antiferromagnetic 
 order parameter --staggered magnetization\; starting from a state with
  consecutive flipped spins (1) we calculate the evolution of the local
  magnetization and express it in terms of the propagation of magnons a
 nd bound state excitations\; (2) we predict the evolution of the induc
 ed spin currents. These predictions can be confronted with experiments
  in ultracold gases in optical lattices. We also show how the “strin
 g” solutions of Bethe Ansatz equations emerge naturally from the con
 tour approach.
