Dynamical quantum phase transitions on random networks
We investigate two types of dynamical quantum phase transitions (DQPTs) in the transverse field Ising model on ensembles of Erdős-Rényi networks of size $N$. These networks consist of vertices connected randomly with probability $p$ ($0<p\leq 1$). Using analytical derivations and numerical techniques, we compare the characteristics of the transitions for $p<1$ against the fully connected network ($p=1$). We analytically show that the overlap between the wave function after a quench and the wave function of the fully connected network after the same quench deviates by at most $\mathcal{O}(N^{-1/2})$. For a DQPT defined by an order parameter, the critical point remains unchanged for all $p$. For a DQPT defined by the rate function of the Loschmidt echo, we find that the rate function deviates from the $p=1$ limit near vanishing points of the overlap with the initial state, while the critical point remains independent for all $p$. Our analysis suggests that this divergence arises from persistent non-trivial global many-body correlations absent in the $p=1$ limit.
