• Authors: Juzar Thingna and Daniel Manzano
• Abstract summary: We consider different approaches to obtain the emphtrue steady states of a degenerated Liouvillian. We show how these can be used to obtain the invariant subspaces of the Liouvillian and hence the steady states. These could be a powerful tool to deal with quantum many-body complex open systems.

• Abstract: Symmetries in an open quantum system lead to degenerated Liouvillian that physically implies the existence of multiple steady states. In such cases, obtaining the initial condition independent stead states is highly nontrivial since any linear combination of the \emph{true} asymptotic states, which may not necessarily be a density matrix, is also a valid asymptote for the Liouvillian. Thus, in this work we consider different approaches to obtain the \emph{true} steady states of a degenerated Liouvillian. In the ideal scenario, when the open system symmetry operators are known we show how these can be used to obtain the invariant subspaces of the Liouvillian and hence the steady states. We then discuss two other approaches that do not require any knowledge of the symmetry operators. These could be a powerful tool to deal with quantum many-body complex open systems. The first approach which is based on Gramm-Schmidt orthonormalization of density matrices allows us to obtain \emph{all} the steady states, whereas the second one based on large deviations allows us to obtain the non-degenerated maximum and minimum current-carrying states. We discuss our method with the help of an open para-Benzene ring and examine interesting scenarios such as the dynamical restoration of Hamiltonian symmetries in the long-time limit and apply the method to study the eigenspacing statistics of the nonequilibrium steady state.

  We investigate whether open quantum systems hosting mixed-state symmetry-protected topological states as steady states retain this property under symmetric perturbations. We find that typical symmetric perturbations cause strong-to-weak spontaneous symmetry breaking at arbitrarily small perturbations, destabilize the steady-state mixed-state symmetry-protected topological order. We construct a quantum channel which replicates the essential physics of the Lindbladian and can be efficiently simulated using only Clifford gates, Pauli measurements, and feedback.

  interplay between symmetries and entanglement in out-of-equilibrium quantum systems is currently at the centre of an intense multidisciplinary research effort. We show that one can introduce a class of solvable states, which extends that of generic dual unitary circuits. In contrast to the known class of solvable states, which relax to the infinite temperature state, these states relax to a family of non-trivial generalised Gibbs ensembles.

  We develop a systematic approach to characterize the 't Hooft anomaly in open quantum systems. By representing their symmetry transformation through superoperators, we incorporate them in a unified framework. We find that anomalies of bosonic systems are classified by $Hd+2(Ktimes G,U(1))/Hd+2(G,U(1))$ in $d$ spatial dimensions.

  We analytically study the scaling of quantum correlation measures on a one-dimensional containing a noninteracting impurity. We derive the exact form of the subleading logarithmic corrections to the extensive terms of correlation measures. This echoes the case of equilibrium states, where such logarithmic terms may convey universal information about the physical system.

  We reformulate the technique of third quantization in a way that explicitly connects all three methods. We first show that our formulation reveals a fundamental dissipative symmetry present in all quadratic bosonic or fermionic Lindbladians. For bosons, we then show that the Wigner function and the characteristic function can be thought of as ''wavefunctions'' of the density matrix.

  We analytically diagonalize the Liouvillian of a class Markovian dissipative systems with arbitrary strong interactions or nonlinearity. This enables an exact description of the full dynamics and dissipative spectrum. Our method is applicable to a variety of other systems, and could provide a powerful new tool for the study of complex driven-dissipative quantum systems.
