DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Alessio Lerose\nhosted by Maksym Serbyn\nAbstract: In 
 this talk\, I will introduce an approach to study quantum many-body dynami
 cs\, inspired by the Feynman-Vernon influence functional. Its central obje
 ct is the influence matrix (IM)\, which describes the effect of a Floquet 
 many-body system on the dynamics of local subsystems. For translationally 
 invariant systems\, the IM obeys a self-consistency equation. For certain 
 fine-tuned models\, remarkably simple exact solutions appear\, which repre
 sent perfect dephasers (PD)\, i.e.\, many-body systems acting as perfectly
  Markovian baths on their parts. Such PDs include dual-unitary quantum cir
 cuits investigated in recent works. In the vicinity of PD points\, the sys
 tem is not perfectly Markovian\, but rather acts as a quantum bath with a 
 short memory time. In this case\, we demonstrate that the self-consistency
  equation can be solved using matrix-product states (MPS) methods\, as the
  IM temporal entanglement is low. Using a combination of analytical insigh
 ts and MPS computations\, we characterize the structure of the IM in terms
  of an effective “statistical-mechanics” description for interfering i
 ntervals of local quantum trajectories and illustrate its predictive power
 .In the last part of the talk\, I will describe how to use these ideas to 
 study the many-body localized (MBL) phase of strongly disordered interacti
 ng spin systems subject to periodic kicks. This approach allows to study e
 xact disorder-averaged time evolution in the thermodynamic limit. MBL syst
 ems fail to act as efficient baths\, and this property is encoded in their
  IM. I will discuss the structure of an MBL IM and link it to the onset of
  temporal long-range order.References:A. Lerose\, M. Sonner\, D. A. Abanin
