- Abstract: We investigate the effect of a non-Markovian, structured reservoir on an open
Heisenberg spin chain. We establish a coherent self-feedback mechanism as the
reservoir couples frequency-dependent to the spin chain. Thus, loss and driving
take place due to the interaction of the spin chain with its own past. This new
paradigm of non-Markovian imposed boundary-driving allows to discuss a new kind
of non-equilibrium steady-state. We show that for certain parameters even in
the long-time limit persistent oscillations occur within the chain. Moreover,
we demonstrate that the conditions for these oscillations and excitation
trapping depend on the characteristics of the chain, thus making it possible to
characterize a chain by detection of its emitted signal under influence of
self-feedback.

We explore the synchronization phenomenon in the quantum few-body system of spins with the non-local dissipation.
Without the external driving, we find that the system can exhibit stable oscillatory behaviors in the long-time dynamics.
The oscillations of the next-nearest-neighboring spins are completely synchronized by the quantum analysis within the Schr"odinger equation.

The study of the long-time oscillations of the out-of-time-ordered correlator (OTOC) appears as a versatile tool, that can be adapted to the case of systems with a small number of degrees of freedom.
We show that the systematic of the OTOC oscillations describes well, in a chain with only 4 spins, the integra-to-chaos transition inherited from the infinite chain.

We study an open Heisenberg XXZ spin chain with long-range Ising-type interaction.
We find that the chain lengths for this transition are increasing with decreasing range of the Ising-type interactions between distant spins.
The transition can be explained by the suppression of ferromagnetic domains at the edges of the chain.
