Quantum hydrodynamics from local thermal pure states

We provide a pure state formulation for hydrodynamics of isolated quantum many-body systems. A pure state describing quantum systems in local thermal equilibrium is constructed, which we call a local thermal pure quantum (ℓTPQ) state. We show that the thermodynamic functional and the expectation val...
