text: 'Nonanalytic points in the return probability of a quantum state as a function
of time, known as dynamical quantum phase transitions (DQPTs), have received great
attention in recent years, but the understanding of their mechanism is still incomplete.
In our recent work [Phys. Rev. Lett. 126, 040602 (2021)], we demonstrated that
one-dimensional DQPTs can be produced by two distinct mechanisms, namely semiclassical
precession and entanglement generation, leading to the definition of precession
(pDQPTs) and entanglement (eDQPTs) dynamical quantum phase transitions. In this
manuscript, we extend and investigate the notion of p- and eDQPTs in two-dimensional
systems by considering semi-infinite ladders of varying width. For square lattices,
we find that pDQPTs and eDQPTs persist and are characterized by similar phenomenology
as in 1D: pDQPTs are associated with a magnetization sign change and a wide entanglement
gap, while eDQPTs correspond to suppressed local observables and avoided crossings
in the entanglement spectrum. However, DQPTs show higher sensitivity to the ladder
width and other details, challenging the extrapolation to the thermodynamic limit
especially for eDQPTs. Moving to honeycomb lattices, we also demonstrate that
lattices with an odd number of nearest neighbors give rise to phenomenologies
beyond the one-dimensional classification.'
