Abstract: A topologically equivalent tight binding model is proposed to study the quantum phase transitions of dimer chain driven by an imaginary ac field. I demonstrate how the partner Hamiltonian is constructed by a similarity transformation to fulfil the $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetry. The $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetry of the partner model allows us to study the topological properties of the original non-Hermitian model as the Bloch bands of the Hermitian system. The quantum phase transitions are discussed in different frequency regime. The approach has the potential applications to investigate the topological states of matter driven by the complex external parameters.

We study phase transitions occurring in the stationary state of the dynamics of integrable many-body non-Hermitian Hamiltonians. We observe that the entanglement phase transitions occurring in the stationary state have the same nature as that occurring in the vacuum of the non-hermitian Hamiltonian.

Tuning the Topological $\theta$-Angle in Cold-Atom Quantum Simulators of Gauge Theories [3.4075669047370125]
We show how a tunable topological $theta$-term can be added to a prototype theory with gauge symmetry. The model can be realized experimentally in a single-species Bose--Hubbard model in an optical superlattice with three different spatial periods. This work opens the door towards studying the rich physics of topological gauge-theory terms in large-scale cold-atom quantum simulators.

Topological transitions with continuously monitored free fermions [68.8204255655161]
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.

We study the anisotropic variant of the quantum Rabi model with different coupling strengths of the rotating and counter-rotating wave terms. The anisotropy preserves the parity symmetry of the original model. We find analytically that the ground-state and the first excited state can cross several times.

We show that fixed points of the non-linear O(3) sigma model can be reproduced near a quantum phase transition of a spin model with just two qubits per lattice site. We apply Trotter methods to obtain results for the complexity of adiabatic ground state preparation in both the weak-coupling and quantum-critical regimes. We present and analyze a quantum algorithm based on non-unitary randomized simulation methods.

We study a non-Hermitian Ising chain with two transverse fields, one real and another imaginary, based on the exact solution and numerical simulation.

Bulk detection of time-dependent topological transitions in quenched chiral models [48.7576911714538]
We show that the winding number of the Hamiltonian eigenstates can be read-out by measuring the mean chiral displacement of a single-particle wavefunction. This implies that the mean chiral displacement can detect the winding number even when the underlying Hamiltonian is quenched between different topological phases.
