Spatiotemporal correlation buildup after an interaction quench in the Luttinger model

ORAL

Abstract

We study the evolution of density-density correlations at different times and distances in the exactly solvable Luttinger model after a sudden quench from the ground state. We discuss the difference between correlations and susceptibilities, and how these results can be interpreted from the point of view of Lieb-Robinson bounds. For the correlation functions we specifically show that pre-quench entanglement in the ground state leads to algebraically decaying long distance tails outside the light cone.
