Abstract
The Vosk–Altman strong disorder renormalization for the unitary dynamics of various random quantum spin chains is reformulated as follows: the local degree of freedom characterized by the highest eigenfrequency Ω can be considered as a high-frequency-Floquet-periodic-driving for the neighboring slower degrees of freedom. Then the two first orders of the high-frequency expansion for the effective Floquet Hamiltonian can be used to generate the emergent local integrals of motion (LIOMs) and to derive the renormalization rules for the effective dynamics of the remaining degrees of freedom. The flow for this effective Floquet Hamiltonian is equivalent to the RSRG-X procedure to construct the whole set of eigenstates that generalizes the Fisher RSRG procedure constructing the ground state. This general framework is applied to the random-transverse-field XXZ spin chain in its many-body-localized phase, in order to derive the renormalization rules associated to the elimination of the biggest transverse field and to the elimination of the biggest coupling respectively.
