Abstract

The authors study the phenomena of many-body localization in a random field Heisenberg chain. In this paper the authors use a shift-inverse exact diagonalization approach that allows them to study the mid-spectrum spectral properties of the model for system sizes of up to N=22. This has allow the authors to identify the many-body localization edge.
