• Abstract: A decomposition of the non-equilibrium stationary state of a quadratic Fermi system influenced by linear baths is obtained and used to establish a simulation protocol in terms of tensor states. The scheme is then applied to examine the occurrence of uncoupled Majorana fermions in Kitaev chains subject to baths on the ends. The resulting phase diagram is compared against the topological characterization of the equilibrium chain and the protocol efficiency is studied with respect to this model

• Entanglement Transition due to particle losses in a monitored fermionic chain [0.0]
  We study the dynamics of the entanglement entropy under quantum jumps that induce local particle losses in a model of free fermions hopping. We show that by tuning the system parameters, a measurement-induced entanglement transition occurs where the entanglement entropy scaling changes from logarithmic to area-law.

  Kitaev spin models are well known for being exactly solvable in a certain parameter regime via a mapping to free fermions. We use classical simulations to explore a novel variational ansatz that takes advantage of this fermionic representation. We also comment on the implications of our results for simulating non-Abelian anyons on quantum computers.

  We investigate a realistic scenario for the quantum simulation of such systems using cold Rydberg-dressed atoms in optical lattices. We perform a detailed analysis of the phase diagram at half- and incommensurate fillings, in the mean-field approximation. We furthermore study the stability of the phases with respect to temperature within the mean-field approximation.

  A continuous phase transition results in the formation of topological defects with a density predicted by the Kibble-Zurek mechanism (KZM) We characterize the spatial distribution of point-like topological defects in the resulting nonequilibrium state and model it using a Poisson point process in arbitrary spatial dimension with KZM density.

  We show the presence of a topological phase transition that is of a different universality class than that observed in stroboscopic projective circuits. We find that this entanglement transition is well identified by a combination of the bipartite entanglement entropy and the topological entanglement entropy.

• Entanglement Transitions from Stochastic Resetting of Non-Hermitian Quasiparticles [0.0]
  We write down a renewal equation for the statistics of the entanglement entropy and show that depending on the spectrum of quasiparticle decay rates different entanglement scaling can arise and even sharp entanglement phase transitions. When applied to a Quantum Ising chain where the transverse magnetization is measured by quantum jumps, our theory predicts a critical phase with logarithmic scaling of the entanglement, an area law phase and a continuous phase transition between them, with an effective central charge vanishing as a square root at the transition point.

  We present a canonical derivation of an influence superoperator which generates the reduced dynamics of a Fermionic quantum system linearly coupled to a Fermionic environment initially at thermal equilibrium. We use this formalism to derive a generalized-Lindblad master equation (in the Markovian limit) and a generalized version of the hierarchical equations of motion valid in arbitrary parity-symmetry conditions.

  The eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) offers a universal mechanism for the approach to equilibrium of closed quantum many-body systems. Here, we propose a theory-independent route to probe the full ETH in quantum simulators by observing the emergence of fluctuation-dissipation relations. Our work presents a theory-independent way to characterize thermalization in quantum simulators and paves the way to quantum simulate condensed matter pump-probe experiments.

• Quantized Floquet topology with temporal noise [0.0]
  We study the Floquet insulator, which exhibits topologically quantized chiral edge states similar to a Chern insulator. We find that the quantized response, given by partially filling the fermionic system and measuring charge pumped per cycle, remains quantized up to finite noise amplitude. This approach suggests an interpretation of the state of the system as a non-Hermitian Floquet topological phase.
