Mobility edge in long-range interacting many-body localized systems

As disorder strength increases in quantum many-body systems a new phase of matter, the so-called many-body localization, emerges across the whole spectrum. This transition is energy dependent, a phenomenon known as mobility edge, such that the mid-spectrum eigenstates tend to localize at larger values of disorder in comparison to eigenstates near the edges of the spectrum. Many-body localization becomes more sophisticated in long-range interacting systems. Here, by focusing on several quantities, we draw the phase diagram as a function of disorder strength and energy spectrum, for a various range of interactions. Regardless of the underlying transition type, either second-order or Kosterlitz-Thouless, our analysis consistently determines the mobility edge, i.e., the phase boundary across the spectrum. We show that, long-range interaction enhances the localization effect and shifts the phase boundary towards smaller values of disorder. In addition, we establish a hierarchy among the studied quantities concerning their corresponding transition boundary and critical exponents. Interestingly, we show that deliberately discarding some information of the system can mitigate finite-size effects and provide results in line with the analytical predictions at the thermodynamic limit.
