• Abstract summary: We develop a framework for the analytical description of a non-equilibrium phase transition to BEC. We show that for a given pumping rate, the macroscopic occupation of the ground state and buildup of coherence may occur at different temperatures. We also investigate the condensate linewidth and show that the Schawlow--Townes law holds for BEC in 3D and does not hold for BEC in 2D.

• Abstract: The theoretical description of non-equilibrium Bose--Einstein condensate (BEC) is one of the main challenges in modern statistical physics and kinetics. The non-equilibrium nature of BEC makes it impossible to employ the well-established formalism of statistical mechanics. We develop a framework for the analytical description of a non-equilibrium phase transition to BEC that, in contrast to previously developed approaches, takes into account the infinite number of continuously distributed states. We consider the limit of fast thermalization and obtain an analytical expression for the full density matrix of a non-equilibrium ideal BEC which also covers the equilibrium case. For the particular cases of 2D and 3D, we investigate the non-equilibrium formation of BEC by finding the temperature dependence of the ground state occupation and second-order coherence function. We show that for a given pumping rate, the macroscopic occupation of the ground state and buildup of coherence may occur at different temperatures. Moreover, the buildup of coherence strongly depends on the pumping scheme. We also investigate the condensate linewidth and show that the Schawlow--Townes law holds for BEC in 3D and does not hold for BEC in 2D.

• Negative Compressability of Non-Equilibrium Non-Ideal Bose--Einstein Condensate [0.0]
  An ideal equilibrium Bose--Einstein condensate (BEC) is usually considered in the grand canonical ($mu V T$) ensemble. In most experimental scenarios, the total amount of particles in BEC is determined either by the initial conditions or by the balance between dissipation and pumping. We show that the redshift of the dispersion curve can lead to the negative compressibility of BEC, whereas the change in the effective mass always makes BEC more stable.

  We consider the two-dimensional quantum Ising model, in absence of disorder, subject to periodic imperfect global spin flips. We show by a combination of exact diagonalization and tensor-network methods that the system can sustain a spontaneously broken discrete time-translation symmetry. We observe a non-perturbative change in the decay rate of the order parameter, which is related to the long-lived stability of the magnetic domains in 2D.

  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.
