• Abstract: In this work we analyze how the spectrum of primordial scalar perturbations is modified, within the emergent universe scenario, when a particular version of the Continuous Spontaneous Localization (CSL) model is incorporated as the generating mechanism of initial perturbations, providing also an explanation to the quantum-to-classical transition of such perturbations. On the other hand, a phase of super-inflation, prior to slow-roll inflation, is a characteristic feature of the emergent universe hypothesis. In recent works, it was shown that the super-inflation phase could generically induce a suppression of the temperature anisotropies of the CMB at large angular scales. We study here under what conditions the CSL maintains or modifies these characteristics of the emergent universe and their compatibility with the CMB observations.

  We investigate the phenomenology leading to the non-conservation of energy of the continuous spontaneous localization (CSL) model. We use such framework to assess the equilibration process entailed by the dissipative formulation of the model (dCSL) We show that the CSL model violates Clausius law, as it exhibits a negative entropy production rate.

• Real-space quantum-to-classical transition of time dependent background fluctuations [0.0]
  We show that a real-space approach can comprehensively address the quantum-to-classical transition problem in the leading order of curvature perturbations. We extract classicality signatures from a multi-mode Gaussian state and address them primarily in terms of entanglement entropy and log-classicality. We then extend the analysis to leading order fluctuations in $(+1)-$dimensions to show that a quantum-to-classical transition occurs in the de-Sitter expansion.

  The eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) offers a universal mechanism for the approach to equilibrium of closed quantum many-body systems. Here, we propose a theory-independent route to probe the full ETH in quantum simulators by observing the emergence of fluctuation-dissipation relations. Our work presents a theory-independent way to characterize thermalization in quantum simulators and paves the way to quantum simulate condensed matter pump-probe experiments.
