Abstract: I will review the information lattice, which we recently introduced as a way to decompose information in a quantum state into local information in position. Using this decomposition allows both universal characterisation of many-body states as well as an informed construction of efficient numerical algorithms for time evolution of many-body states to long times, way beyond the entanglement barrier that limits the time range of matrix product state time evolution. We apply this to the problem of simulating thermalising quantum many-body system to long times such that diffusion emerges.
