In the former approach the non-ergodic delocalized state is defined as the one in which the wave functions occupy a volume that scales as a non-trivial power of the full phase space. In this work we study the simplest quantum spin glass model and find that in the delocalized non-ergodic regime the spin–spin correlators decay with the characteristic time that scales as non-trivial power of the full Hilbert space volume. The long time limit of this correlator also scales as a power of the full Hilbert space volume. We identify this phase with the glass phase whilst the many body localized phase corresponds to a ’hyperglass’ n which dynamics is practically absent. We discuss the implications of these findings to quantum information problems. Keywords: |
