That is, the time evolution generated by H_λ relaxes to its ultimate thermal state via an intermediate prethermal state with a lifetime of order λ^{-2}. Moreover, we obtain a general relaxation formula, expressing the perturbed dynamics via the unperturbed dynamics and the ultimate thermal state. The proof relies on a two-resolvent law for the deformed Wigner matrix H_λ."}],"OA_type":"hybrid","corr_author":"1","scopus_import":"1","article_processing_charge":"Yes (via OA deal)","author":[{"full_name":"Erdös, László","orcid":"0000-0001-5366-9603","first_name":"László","last_name":"Erdös","id":"4DBD5372-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},{"id":"31d731d7-d235-11ea-ad11-b50331c8d7fb","last_name":"Henheik","first_name":"Sven Joscha","full_name":"Henheik, Sven Joscha","orcid":"0000-0003-1106-327X"},{"first_name":"Jana","full_name":"Reker, Jana","id":"e796e4f9-dc8d-11ea-abe3-97e26a0323e9","last_name":"Reker"},{"id":"1949f904-edfb-11eb-afb5-e2dfddabb93b","last_name":"Riabov","first_name":"Volodymyr","full_name":"Riabov, Volodymyr"}],"external_id":{"arxiv":["2310.06677"]},"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"year":"2024","acknowledgement":"We thank Peter Reimann and Lennart Dabelow for helpful comments.
