We introduce the Heisenberg picture for time-dependent local Liouvillians and state a Lieb-Robinson bound that gives rise to a maximum speed of propagation of correlations in many body systems of locally interacting spins and fermions. Finally, we discuss a number of important consequences concerning the simulation of time evolution and properties of ground states and stationary states.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2014-08-18T13:10:30.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "81-01" ], "keywords": [ "time evolution", "local observables", "lattice systems", "simulation", "introductory text reviewing lieb-robinson bounds" ], "tags": [ "book chapter", "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 13, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1306.0716K" } } }
