- Abstract: In this work we study genuine multipartite correlations (GMC's) in a boundary
time crystal (BTC). Boundary time crystals are nonequilibrium quantum phases of
matter in contact to an environment, for which a macroscopic fraction of the
many-body system breaks the time-translation symmetry. We analyze both (i) the
structure (orders) of GMC's among the subsystems, as well as (ii) their
build-up dynamics for an initially uncorrelated state. We find that, in the
thermodynamic limit (and only in such a limit), multipartite correlations of
all orders grow indefinitely in time in the BTC phase, further displaying a
persistent oscillatory behavior around their mean growth. The orders of the
correlations show a power-law decaying hierarchy among its $k$-partitions.
Moreover, in the long-time limit the GMC's are shown extensive with the system
size, contrasting to the subextensive scaling in the non time-crystal
(ferromagnetic) phase of the model. We also discuss the classical and quantum
nature of these correlations with basis on multipartite entanglement witnesses,
specifically, the analysis of the Quantum Fisher Information (QFI). Both GMC
and QFI are able to capture and distinguish the different phases of the model.
Our work highlights the genuine many-body properties of these peculiar
non-equilibrium phases of matter.

We study dynamical quantum phase transitions (DQPTs) in the quenched extended Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model.
Anomalous DQPTs, where the number of critical momenta exceeds the winding number differences between the pre-quench and post-quench phases, are observed.
We categorize the phases in the equilibrium model into two classes and distinctive features in the time evolution of the entanglement involving quenches within and across the two classes are identified.

Recent investigations have unveiled exotic quantum phases that elude characterization by simple bipartite correlation functions.
In these phases, long-range entanglement arising from tripartite correlations plays a central role.
Our findings unveil that, even at low temperatures, a broad class of tripartite entanglement cannot manifest in the long-range regime.

Continuous time crystals (CTCs) are characterized by sustained oscillations that break the time translation symmetry.
We propose a new kind of CTC realized in a quantum contact model through self-organized bistability.

We investigate the dynamics of out-of-time-order correlators (OTOCs) in a non-Hermitian kicked rotor model.
In the unbroken phase of $mathcalPT$ symmetry, the OTOCs increase monotonically and eventually saturate with time.
Just beyond the phase transition points, the OTOCs increase in the power-laws of time, with the exponent larger than two.

How the property of quantum many-body system especially the phase transition will be affected by the non-hermiticity remains unclear.
We show that there is a continuous phase transition induced by the non-hermiticity in QCP.
We observe that the order parameter and susceptibility display infinitely even for finite size system, since non-hermiticity endows universality many-body system with different singular behaviour from classical phase transition.
