Caustics in quantum many-body dynamics
We describe a new class of nonequilibrium quantum many-body phenomena in the form of networks of caustics that dominate the many-body wave function in the semiclassical regime following a sudden quench. It includes the light cone-like propagation of correlations as a particular case. Caustics are si...
