摘要
We study the level spacing distributions across the many-body localization (MBL) transition in random spin systems, and compare them to the short-range plasma model (SRPM) with interaction range k and inverse temperature beta. It is found the level statistics within the ergodic phase fits well into SRPM, with the interaction range k decreases as randomness strength grows. Particularly, SRPM with only nearest level interactions (k = 1) fits well with the physical data at the ergodic-MBL transition point identified by the inter-sample randomness, suggesting the former is the effective critical model with beta = 1(2) for time-reversal invariant (broken) systems.
