• Title: Avoided level crossings in quasi-exact approach
• Authors: Miloslav Znojil
• Abstract summary: A quantum analogue of the Thom's classical catastrophe would manifest itself, experimentally, via a reordering of the maxima of the probability density paralleled by avoided crossings of the energy levels. A systematic exact (or, better, quasi-exact) construction of the relocalization instants is proposed here. The approach is shown to yield the mutually consistent non-polynomial analytic potentials together with the related non-numerical multi-Gaussian-shaped wave functions.

• Abstract: The existence of quantum tunneling opens the possibility of a sudden spatial relocalization of a system after a minor modification of its parameters. Such a quantum analogue of the Thom's classical catastrophe would manifest itself, experimentally, via a reordering of the maxima of the probability density paralleled by avoided crossings of the energy levels. Any model (described, say, by an analytic potential with several pronounced minima) is difficult to describe near such an instability because the phenomenon is oversensitive to perturbations. A systematic exact (or, better, quasi-exact) construction of the relocalization instants is proposed here. Its application is considered in the one-dimensional critical-instant setup. The approach is shown to yield the mutually consistent non-polynomial analytic potentials together with the related non-numerical multi-Gaussian-shaped wave functions.

  We identify the non-Bloch topological phase diagram of a one-dimensional (1D) non-Hermitian system without chiral symmetry. We find that such topological invariants can distinguish topologically distinct gapped phases. Our work provides a useful platform to study the interplay among topology, symmetries and the non-Hermiticity.

• Exact solution of the infinite-range dissipative transverse-field Ising model [0.0]
  We present an exact solution for the steady state of the transverse-field Ising model in the limit of infinite-range interactions. Our solution holds despite the lack of any collective spin symmetry or even permutation symmetry. It allows us to investigate first- and second-order dissipative phase transitions, driven-dissipative criticality, and captures the emergence of a surprising "spin blockade" phenomenon.

The link between the peaked structure of the effective decay rate of the qubit that interacts indirectly with the environment, and the onset of the quantum Zeno effect is discussed in great detail. Our treatment and results have revealed an intricate interplay between non-Markovian dynamics, quantum Zeno effect and non-Hermitian physics.

  Unavoidable coupling of quantum systems to external degrees of freedom leads to dissipative (non-unitary) dynamics. We introduce a method to deal with these systems based on the calculation of (dissipative) lattice Green's function. We illustrate the power of this method with several examples of driven-dissipative bosonic chains of increasing complexity.

  A family of confining potentials is considered, characterized by the presence of an $N-$plet of high barriers separating the $(N+1)-$plet of deep valleys. The bifurcations of the long-time classical equilibria are shown paralleled by the ALCs in the quantum low-lying spectra. Every tunneling-controlled fine-tuned switch of dominance between the valleys is interpreted as a change of the topological structure of the probability density representing a genuine quantum relocalization catastrophe.

• Measurement-induced quantum criticality under continuous monitoring [0.0]
  We investigate entanglement phase transitions from volume-law to area-law entanglement in a quantum many-body state under continuous position measurement. We find the signatures of the transitions as peak structures in the mutual information as a function of measurement strength. We propose a possible experimental setup to test the predicted entanglement transition based on the subsystem particle-number fluctuations.
