We call this a strong version of the local perturbations perturb locally (LPPL) principle which is known to hold for much more general gapped systems, but only for perturbations that do not close the spectral gap of the Hamiltonian. We also extend this strong LPPL-principle to Hamiltonians that have the appropriate structure of gapped on-site terms and weak interactions only locally in some region of space. While our results are technically corollaries to a theorem of Yarotsky, we expect that the paradigm of systems with a locally gapped ground state that is completely insensitive to the form of the Hamiltonian elsewhere extends to other situations and has important physical consequences."}],"publication_status":"published","date_published":"2022-01-18T00:00:00Z","issue":"1","year":"2022","intvolume":" 112","volume":112,"ddc":["530"],"project":[{"call_identifier":"H2020","name":"Random matrices beyond Wigner-Dyson-Mehta","_id":"62796744-2b32-11ec-9570-940b20777f1d","grant_number":"101020331"}],"file_date_updated":"2022-01-19T09:41:14Z","acknowledgement":"J.
