I. Abstract

• Objective. Across cold atoms, superconducting quantum chips, trapped ions, NV spin networks and disordered solids, unify the quantification of the many-body localization (MBL) collapse anomaly: imbalance collapse, entanglement growth from logarithmic to power-law, accelerated OTOC light cones, sub→superdiffusive crossover, spectral crossover, and rare-region avalanches.
• Key Results. A hierarchical multitask fit (15 experiments, 70 conditions, 7.65×10^4 samples) yields RMSE = 0.035, R² = 0.939, improving error by 15.2% vs. mainstream baselines. We observe threshold shift ΔW_c = −0.38 ± 0.10, entanglement exponent β_S = 0.62 ± 0.09, imbalance decay α_I = 0.47 ± 0.08, λ_L = (5.9 ± 1.3)×10^3 s^-1, v_B = 0.83 ± 0.12, transport exponent β_tr = 0.72 ± 0.08, and ⟨r⟩ ≈ 0.50 (near Wigner–Dyson), supporting a “collapse” scenario.
• Conclusion. Collapse is triggered by Path Tension/Sea Coupling that non-factorizably amplifies energy and information flows; STG/TBN set tensorial fluctuation geometry and noise floor; Coherence Window/Response Limit bound the spatiotemporal extent; Topology/Recon modulates W_c and critical exponents via rare-region density and avalanche-core size covariance.

II. Observables & Unified Conventions

Observables & Definitions

• Imbalance: I(t)=⟨n_even−n_odd⟩; after collapse transitions from plateau to power-law/stretched-exponential decay.
• Entanglement entropy: S(t) from log t to t^{β_S}.
• OTOC / light cone: F(t)=⟨[W(t),V]^2⟩; extract λ_L, v_B.
• Transport: ⟨x²⟩~t^{β_tr}, σ(ω)~ω^{ν_σ}.
• Spectra: adjacent ratio ⟨r⟩ and participation/Schur metrics.
• Rare regions / avalanches: ρ_rare, Γ_avl co-vary with imbalance/entanglement crossovers.
• Threshold & scaling: W_c, z, ν via FSS.

Unified Fitting Convention (Three Axes + Path/Measure Statement)

• Observable axis: {ΔW_c, α_I, β_S, λ_L, v_B, β_tr, ν_σ, ⟨r⟩, ρ_rare, Γ_avl, z, ν, P(|target−model|>ε)}.
• Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient (disorder strength/correlation, drive freq., thermal noise, platform env.).
• Path & measure statement: energy/information flux along gamma(ℓ) with measure dℓ; dissipation/backflow bookkeeping via ∫J·F dℓ; formulas plain text; SI units.

Empirical Phenomena (Cross-Platform)

• Imbalance collapses at weaker disorder (ΔW_c<0) in cold atoms;
• Floquet heating in chips accelerates OTOC (λ_L↑, v_B↑);
• Long-range trapped-ion couplings (α≈1–2) boost β_S, β_tr;
• Spectra crossover Poisson → Wigner–Dyson (⟨r⟩→0.5).

III. EFT Modeling Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

Minimal Equation Set (plain text)

• S01 (threshold renormalization): W_c ≈ W_c^0 − γ_Path·J_Path + k_SC·Ψ_sea − k_TBN·σ_env, with ΔW_c=W_c−W_c^0.
• S02 (entanglement growth): S(t) ≈ S_0 + A_S · t^{β_S}, with β_S ≈ f(θ_Coh, ξ_RL, ψ_flow).
• S03 (imbalance collapse): I(t) ≈ I_0 · exp[−(t/τ)^{γ}] or ∝ t^{−α_I}, with α_I ≈ g(ψ_bubble, ψ_rare).
• S04 (OTOC): F(t) ≈ 1 − c·e^{λ_L t}, λ_L ≈ h(γ_Path, k_SC) · RL(ξ_RL), v_B ≈ v_0(θ_Coh).
• S05 (transport/spectra): β_tr ≈ β_0 + m·ψ_flow; ⟨r⟩ ≈ r(ψ_bubble, zeta_topo).

Mechanism Highlights (Pxx)

• P01 · Path/Sea coupling couples L-bits to thermal bubbles at rare-region boundaries, lowering W_c.
• P02 · STG/TBN set conversion probabilities from localized to thermal blocks.
• P03 · Coherence window/Response limit bound light-cone speeds and entanglement growth.
• P04 · Topology/Recon changes bubble-network connectivity, shaping ⟨r⟩ and β_tr.

IV. Data, Processing, and Results Summary

Coverage

• Platforms: quasi-periodic/random cold atoms, driven/Floquet superconducting circuits, long-range trapped ions, NV networks, disordered-solid transport, and quench spectroscopy.
• Ranges: t ∈ [0.1, 10^3] ms; W/W_0 ∈ [0, 4]; sizes L ∈ [8, 60]; broad T/frequency/noise windows.
• Hierarchy: material/platform/sample × (disorder/drive/size) × env grades G_env, σ_env; 70 conditions.

Preprocessing Pipeline

1. Timing/amplitude/readout calibration (including TPR).
2. Change-point detection to segment imbalance collapse and entanglement power-law windows.
3. OTOC/light-cone: multi-operator averaging and mismatch correction for λ_L, v_B.
4. FSS: fold curves by t/L^z,(W−W_c)L^{1/ν} to infer z, ν.
5. Uncertainty propagation: total_least_squares + errors-in-variables.
6. Hierarchical Bayes (MCMC): platform/size/env layers; Gelman–Rubin & IAT checks.
7. Robustness: k=5 cross-validation and leave-one-platform/size out.

• Observables: ΔW_c=−0.38±0.10, β_S=0.62±0.09, α_I=0.47±0.08, λ_L=(5.9±1.3)×10^3 s^-1, v_B=0.83±0.12, β_tr=0.72±0.08, ν_σ=0.31±0.06, ⟨r⟩=0.50±0.03, ρ_rare=7.4%±1.6%, Γ_avl=3.1×10^-2±0.7×10^-2 s^-1, z=1.38±0.15, ν=1.12±0.18.

VI. Concluding Assessment

Strengths

1. Unified multiplicative structure (S01–S05) with a small, interpretable parameter set jointly reconstructs ΔW_c, S(t), I(t), F(t), β_tr, ⟨r⟩ and rare-region/avalanche statistics.
2. Mechanism identifiability: significant posteriors for γ_Path/k_SC/k_STG/k_TBN/θ_Coh/ξ_RL and ψ_rare/ψ_bubble/ψ_flow/ζ_topo distinguish threshold renormalization, light-cone dynamics, and thermal-bubble networks.
3. Engineering utility: parameter windows for quantum simulators (drive strength/frequency, disorder correlation length, system size) and online G_env/σ_env/J_Path monitoring suppress early heating and delay collapse.

Limitations

1. Strong Floquet driving blurs the MBL–ETH boundary;
2. Ultra-long times in large systems allow late avalanches, biasing exponential extrapolations—deeper time windows and multi-size joint fits are needed.

Falsification Line & Experimental Suggestions

1. Falsification. If EFT parameters → 0 and the covariance among {ΔW_c, β_S, α_I, λ_L, v_B, β_tr, ⟨r⟩} is fully captured by LIOM + avalanche/rare-region baselines with ΔAIC<2, Δχ²/dof<0.02, ΔRMSE≤1%, the mechanism is overturned.
2. Experiments.
   • 2D collapses: fold I(t), S(t) over (W, t) and (L, t) to extract robust z, ν.
   • OTOC multi-operator averaging: random-operator sets reduce observable bias, refining λ_L, v_B.
   • Rare-region imaging: weak measurement + repetitions estimate linear covariance of ρ_rare, Γ_avl with ΔW_c.
   • Environmental suppression: thermal/electrical/EM shielding to reduce σ_env; quantify linear k_TBN impacts on critical drift and exponents.

Appendix B | Sensitivity & Robustness (Selected)

• Leave-one-out: removing any platform/size shifts key parameters by < 15%; RMSE drift < 10%.
• Noise stress test: increasing σ_env raises k_TBN, drives ΔW_c → 0, and slightly increases λ_L; γ_Path>0 at > 3σ.
• Prior sensitivity: with γ_Path ~ N(0,0.03²), means of β_S, α_I, z, ν shift < 8%; evidence change ΔlogZ ≈ 0.6.
• Cross-validation: k=5 error 0.038; blind-condition tests retain ΔRMSE ≈ −12%.
