• Title: Selection Rule for Topological Amplifiers in Bogoliubov de Gennes Systems
• Authors: Hong Y. Ling and Ben Kain
• Abstract summary: Dynamical instability is an inherent feature of bosonic systems described by the Bogoliubov de Geenes (BdG) Hamiltonian. We present a theorem for determining the stability of states with energies sufficiently away from zero in terms of an unconventional commutator. We use this model to illustrate how the vanishing of the unconventional commutator selects the symmetries for a system so that its bulk states are stable against (weak) pairing interactions.

• Abstract: Dynamical instability is an inherent feature of bosonic systems described by the Bogoliubov de Geenes (BdG) Hamiltonian. Since it causes the BdG system to collapse, it is generally thought that it should be avoided. Recently, there has been much effort to harness this instability for the benefit of creating a topological amplifier with stable bulk bands but unstable edge modes which can be populated at an exponentially fast rate. We present a theorem for determining the stability of states with energies sufficiently away from zero, in terms of an unconventional commutator between the number conserving part and number nonconserving part of the BdG Hamiltonian. We apply the theorem to a generalization of a model from Galilo et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett, 115, 245302(2015)] for creating a topological amplifier in an interacting spin-1 atom system in a honeycomb lattice through a quench process. We use this model to illustrate how the vanishing of the unconventional commutator selects the symmetries for a system so that its bulk states are stable against (weak) pairing interactions. We find that as long as time reversal symmetry is preserved, our system can act like a topological amplifier, even in the presence of an onsite staggered potential which breaks the inversion symmetry.

  We show how the quantum mechanics of the inverted harmonic oscillator can be mapped to the quantum mechanics of a particle. We demonstrate this by relating both of these systems to the Berry-Keating system with hamiltonian $H=(xp+px)/2$. Our map does not require the boundary condition to be self-adjoint, as can be appropriate for systems that involve the absorption or emission of particles.

• Stability via symmetry breaking in interacting driven systems [0.0]
  Photonic and bosonic systems subject to incoherent, wide-bandwidth driving cannot typically reach stable finite-density phases using only non-dissipative Hamiltonian nonlinearities. We describe here a very general mechanism for circumventing this common limit, whereby Hamiltonian interactions can cut-off heating from a Markovian pump.

  Inherent symmetry of a quantum system may protect its otherwise fragile states. We implement the one-dimensional kicked Ising model which exhibits non-local Majorana edge modes (MEMs) with $mathbbZ$ parity symmetry. MEMs are found to be resilient against certain symmetry-breaking noise owing to a prethermalization mechanism.

Such a system is capable of acting as a topological amplifier, under time-reversal symmetry. We construct a convenient analytical description for the edge modes of the Haldane model in semi-infinite planes.
