This research investigates the crossover between collective dynamics and fast scrambling in long-range spin models, offering a unified framework to control quantum information evolution via initial-state symmetry alignment. By leveraging spectral properties of coupling graphs, the study provides predictive tools for experiments involving neutral atoms in cavities or tweezer arrays, directly advancing our understanding of many-body quantum systems.
Tuning between collective dynamics and scrambling through initial-state symmetry alignment in long-range spin models
arXiv:2610.28462v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-range interactions in many-body quantum systems give rise to a wide range of dynamical phenomena, from collective dynamics well described by integrable mean-field models with symmetric all-to-all couplings, to fast scrambling of quantum information from disordered long-range interactions. Here, we investigate scenarios in which both regimes emerge within a single deterministic, translation-invariant XY spin model with long-range couplings. We consider a sparse powers-of-two (PWR2) graph, where each spin interacts with a logarithmic number of neighbors, and a power-law-decaying model. By altering the initial state via local perturbations on a completely symmetric state, we show that the dynamics changes from collective to scrambling as witnessed by bipartite and multipartite entanglement measures. We characterize this collective-to-scrambling crossover using Lyapunov exponents in the semiclassical regime, and show that the spectral properties of the coupling graph adjacency matrix provide a very efficient tool to predict the onset of fast scrambling. Our results offer a unified framework for controlling the switch between collective and scrambling dynamics in a setup accessible in experiments with neutral atoms in cavities or in tweezer arrays.
