We analyze, both analytically and numerically, the time-dependence of the return probability in closed systems of interacting particles. Main attention is paid to the interplay between two regimes, one of which is characterized by the Gaussian decay of the return probability, and another one is the well known regime of the exponential decay. Our analytical estimates are confirmed by the numerical data obtained for two models with random interaction. In view of these results, we also briefly discuss the dynamical model which was recently proposed for the implementation of a quantum computation.

We study dynamical properties of systems with many interacting Fermi-particles under the influence of static imperfections. Main attention is payed to the time dependence of the Shannon entropy of wave packets, and to the fidelity of the dynamics. Our question is how the entropy and fidelity are sensitive to the noise. In our study, we use both random matrix models with two-body interaction and dynamical models of a quantum computation. Numerical data are compared with analytical predictions.
