Origin of the slow growth of entanglement entropy in long-range interacting spin systems

Long-range interactions allow far-distance quantum correlations to build up very fast. Nevertheless, numerical simulations demonstrated a dramatic slowdown of entanglement entropy growth after a sudden quench. In this work, we unveil the general mechanism underlying this counterintuitive phenomenon...
