Disordered Lieb-Robinson Bounds in One Dimension

By tightening the conventional Lieb-Robinson bounds to better handle systems that lack translation invariance, we determine the extent to which “weak links” suppress operator growth in disordered one-dimensional spin chains. In particular, we prove that ballistic growth is impossible when the distri...
