Exploring many-body localization in quantum systems coupled to an environment via Wegner-Wilson flows

Inspired by recent experiments on many-body localized systems coupled to an environment, we apply a Flow Equation method to study the problem of a disorder chain of spinless fermions, coupled via density-density interactions to a second clean chain of spinless fermions. In particular, we focus on th...
