    • Eigenstate thermalization hypothesis in quantum dimer models 

      Lan, Zhihao; Powell, Stephen (University of Nottingham, 2017-09-21)
      We use exact diagonalization to study the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) in the quantum dimer model on the square and triangular lattices. Due to the nonergodicity of the local plaquette-flip dynamics, the ...
    • Emergence of cooperative dynamics in fully packed classical dimers 

      Oakes, Tom; Garrahan, Juan; Powell, Stephen (University of Nottingham, 2016-03-08)
      We study the behavior of classical dimer coverings of the square lattice - a paradigmatic model for systems subject to constraints - evolving under local stochastic dynamics, by means of Monte Carlo simulations and theoretical ...
