Abstract
In the context of out of equilibrium dynamics of isolated interacting quantum many-body systems, we study the mean-field discretized and nonlinear Gross-Pitaevskii equation (GPE) of motion for a fully connected (or all-to-all coupled) Bose-Hubbard model describing a large population of bosons on a lattice of generic dimension V, with potential experimental applications ranging from ultra-cold atomic gases in optical traps to systems of Josephson junctions. Considering a quench on the system Hamiltonian, we describe the time evolution of a system initialized to the Mott insulating phase and taken in the strong superfluid regime, finding a sharp change in the dynamical behaviour when varying the quench intensity across a critical value, that is a dynamical phase transition.
Our results generalize the study presented in some previous papers focusing on the particular cases of V = 2, V = 3 and 1D lattice, and place particular emphasis on the relaxation of some dynamical order parameters in the large V limit
