Quantum chaos and entanglement in spin-chains : dynamics of a periodically kicked Heisenberg ferromagnet

The Heisenberg spin-chain and the Quantum Kicked Rotor (QKR) are key models in condensed matter and quantum chaos respectively. The former, consisting of a line of qubits that interact with their neighbours through an exchange interaction, has recently received much attention in the context of quant...
