Abstract
We have considered the spin-1/2 XXZ chain model which is exactly solvable with the Bethe anzats method. It is shown adding a single defect away from edges is sufficient to see a chaos signature in the model. In this work, we have studied the time behavior of the Loschmidt-echo (LE) by considering domain-wall and Neel states as two product initial states and also a Bell state as an entangled initial state. We have used the numerical full diagonalization method to have full spectrum of the model. It is shown that very short times behavior of the LE is independent from defect and initial state, and the decay is quadratic. Moreover, results show that in the chaotic regime and for intermediate times, the exponential decay behavior of the LE shows some changes by removing defect from the chain in the domain-wall and Bell states, while no changes is seen in the Neel state. To get some intuition of these changes, we have addressed the relation between the dynamics of the LE and the local density of states features.
