• Abstract summary: Weak invariants are time-dependent observables with conserved expectation values. On the assumption that time evolution of the state of an open quantum system is given in terms of a completely positive map, the fluctuations monotonically grow even if the map is not unital.

• Abstract: Weak invariants are time-dependent observables with conserved expectation values. Their fluctuations, however, do not remain constant in time. On the assumption that time evolution of the state of an open quantum system is given in terms of a completely positive map, the fluctuations monotonically grow even if the map is not unital, in contrast to the fact that monotonic increases of both the von Neumann entropy and R\'enyi entropy require the map to be unital. In this way, the weak invariants describe temporal asymmetry in a manner different from the entropies. A formula is presented for time evolution of the covariance matrix associated with the weak invariants in the case when the system density matrix obeys the Gorini-Kossakowski-Lindblad-Sudarshan equation.

  We propose a class of discrete time crystals enforced by nonsymmorphic dynamical symmetry. The exact solution of the time-dependent Schr"odinger equation shows that the system spontaneously exhibits a period extension. We show that the subharmonic response is stable even when many-body interactions are introduced, indicating a DTC phase in the thermodynamic limit.

• Mappings preserving quantum Renyi's entropies in von Neumann algebras [0.0]
  A normal positive linear unital map on a semifinite von Neumann algebra leaving the trace invariant does not change fixed quantum Renyi's entropy of the density of a normal state. It is also shown that such a map does not change the entropy of any density if and only if it is a Jordan *-isomorphism on the algebra.

  We introduce a broader class of non-Hermitian Hamiltonian deformations in a nonrelativistic setting. We relate the time evolution operator and the time-evolving density matrix in the undeformed and deformed theories. As the dissipative evolution of a quantum system can be conveniently described in Liouville space, we discuss the spectral properties of the Liouvillians.
