• Abstract: Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering describes a quantum correlation in addition to entanglement and Bell nonlocality. However, conceptually different from entanglement and Bell nonlocality, quantum steering has an asymmetric definition. Motivated by the asymmetric definition of quantum steering, we study the steerability of two-interacting qubits, which have asymmetric energy levels, coupled with asymmetric environments. The asymmetric (nonequilibrium) environments are two environments with different temperatures or chemical potentials. The Bloch-Redfield equation is applied to study the dynamics of two qubits and its long-time behavior. In our study, the steady-state steerability is determined by an experimentally friendly steering criteria, which demonstrates steering through the entanglement detection. Our results show that the steady states of two asymmetric qubits have the advantage for one direction of steering, compared to the symmetric setup. We also provide analytical results on the minimal coupling strength between the two qubits in order to be steerable. The asymmetric steerability is collectively determined by the nature of the two qubits and the influence from equilibrium or nonequilibrium environments. Nonequilibrium environments with the cost of nonzero entropy production can enhance the steerability in one direction. We also show the strict hierarchy of entanglement, steering and Bell nonlocality of the nonequilibrium steady states, which shows a richer structure of steering than entanglement and Bell nonlocality.

  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.

• Manipulating the direction of one-way steering in an optomechanical ring cavity [0.0]
  Quantum steering refers to the apparent possibility of exploiting nonseparable quantum correlations to remotely influence the quantum state of an observer via local measurements. Here, we study Gaussian quantum steering between two mechanical modes in an optomechanical ring cavity. We show that the state of the two considered modes can exhibit two-way steering and even one-way steering.

  Topological order offers possibilities for processing quantum information which can be immune to imperfections. We show robustness of certain aspects of $ZZtimes Z$ symmetry-protected trajectory (SPT) order against a wide class of dissipation channels. Our work thus proposes a novel framework to study the dynamics of dissipative SPT phases.

• Enhanced entanglement and asymmetric EPR steering between magnons [0.0]
  We study the entanglement and EPR steering between two macroscopic magnons in a hybrid ferrimagnet-light system. In the presence of the cavity field, the entanglement can be significantly enhanced, and strong two-way asymmetric quantum steering appears between two magnons with equal dispassion. Our finding may provide a novel platform to manipulate the quantum steering and the detection of bi-party steering provides a knob to probe the magnetic damping on each sublattice of a magnet.
