Abstract
A recent experiment has observed the antiferromagnetic interaction between the ground state ^{1}S_{0} and the metastable state ^{3}P_{0} of ^{171}Yb atoms, which are fermionic. This observation combined with the use of state-dependent optical lattices allows for quantum simulation of the Kondo model. We propose that in this Kondo simulator the anomalous temperature dependence of transport, namely, the Kondo effect, can be detected through quench dynamics triggered by the shift of a trap potential. For this purpose, we improve the numerical efficiency of the minimally entangled typical thermal states (METTSs) algorithm by applying additional Trotter gates. Using the improved METTSs algorithm, we compute the quench dynamics of the one-dimensional Kondo model at finite temperatures quasiexactly. We find that the center-of-mass motion exhibits a logarithmic suppression with a decrease in the temperature, which is a characteristic feature of the Kondo effect.
