• Abstract: Quantum many-body systems and quantum devices experience the detrimental effects of noise and particle losses, necessitating their treatment as open quantum systems or, in approximation, as non-Hermitian systems. These systems exhibit nontrivial characteristics in their time evolution that differ significantly from closed systems. In this Letter, we study the dynamic properties of a one-dimensional fermionic system with adjacent-lattice particle loss. By utilizing time-dependent correlation matrix methods and bosonization techniques, we demonstrate that, as the system evolves over time, its (bipartite) von Neumann entropy exhibits a universal behavior of rapid increase due to thermalization effects at short times, independent of the effective Hamiltonian and Liouvillian spectra, even in the presence of interactions. Additionally, we show that the asymmetric non-Hermitian terms in the effective Hamiltonian caused by adjacent-lattice quantum jumps lead to left-right asymmetry of quasiparticles in momentum space, which is ubiquitous in non-Hermitian skin effects and introduces momentum-space entanglement independent of the interaction strength at early times. Our study illuminates the universal fate of non-Hermitian fermionic liquids in the open quantum context, enriching our understanding of non-Hermitian many-body systems over the entire time range. Furthermore, our findings provide valuable insights for near-term quantum devices and the quantum simulation of open systems.

  We investigate the time evolution of quantum states at long times by numerical simulations. It is found that the opening and closing of the Liouvillian gap leads to different damping behaviours of the system. The presence of non-Hermitian skin effects leads to a phenomenon of chiral damping with sharp wavefronts.

  Isolated interacting quantum systems generally thermalize, yet there are several counterexamples for the breakdown of ergodicity. Recently, ergodicity breaking has been observed in systems subjected to linear potentials, termed Stark many-body localization. Here, we experimentally explore initial-state dependent dynamics using a ladder-type superconducting processor with up to 24 qubits.

  Generically, non-integrable quantum systems are expected to thermalize as they comply with the Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis. In the presence of strong disorder, the dynamics can possibly slow down to a degree that systems fail to thermalize on experimentally accessible timescales. We study an ensemble of Heisenberg spins with a tunable distribution of random coupling strengths realized by a Rydberg quantum simulator.

The dependence of the spectral function on the time after the pump pulse reveals collective interactions among spinons.
