• Title: Unitary Evolutions Sourced By Interacting Quantum Memories: Closed Quantum Systems Directing Themselves Using Their State Histories
• Authors: Alireza Tavanfar, Aliasghar Parvizi, Marco Pezzutto
• Abstract summary: We show that momentary choices of the system's memories interact in order to source the internal interactions and unitary time evolutions of the system. In a closed system of the kind, the unitary evolution operator is updated, moment by moment, by being remade out of the system's experience', that is, its quantum state history.

• Abstract: We propose, formulate and examine novel quantum systems and behavioral phases in which momentary choices of the system's memories interact in order to source the internal interactions and unitary time evolutions of the system. In a closed system of the kind, the unitary evolution operator is updated, moment by moment, by being remade out of the system's `experience', that is, its quantum state history. The `Quantum Memory Made' Hamiltonians (QMM-Hs) which generate these unitary evolutions are Hermitian nonlocal-in-time operators composed of arbitrarily-chosen past-until-present density operators of the closed system or its arbitrary subsystems. The time evolutions of the kind are described by novel nonlocal nonlinear von Neumann and Schr\"odinger equations. We establish that nontrivial Purely-QMM unitary evolutions are `Robustly Non-Markovian', meaning that the maximum temporal distances between the chosen quantum memories must exceed finite lower bounds which are set by the interaction couplings. After general formulation and considerations, we focus on the sufficiently-involved task of obtaining and classifying behavioral phases of one-qubit pure-state evolutions generated by first-to-third order polynomial QMM-Hs made out of one, two and three quantum memories. The behavioral attractors resulted from QMM-Hs are characterized and classified using QMM two-point-function observables as the natural probes, upon combining analytical methods with extensive numerical analyses. The QMM phase diagrams are shown to be outstandingly rich, having diverse classes of unprecedented unitary evolutions with physically remarkable behaviors. Moreover, we show that QMM interactions cause novel purely-internal dynamical phase transitions. Finally, we suggest independent fundamental and applied domains where the proposed `Experience Centric' Unitary Evolutions can be applied natuarlly and advantageously.

  We propose an alternative formalism that turns any non-autonomous unitary dynamical system into an autonomous unitary system. This makes the simulation with time-dependent Hamiltonians not much more difficult than that of time-independent Hamiltonians. We show how our new quantum protocol for time-dependent Hamiltonians can be performed in a resource-efficient way and without measurements.

  We study periodic dynamical quantum phase transitions (DQPTs) directly connected to the zeros of a Landau order parameter (OP) We find that a DQPT signals a change in the dominant contribution to the wave function in the degenerate initial-state manifold. Our work generalizes previous results and reveals that, in general, periodic DQPTs comprise complex many-body dynamics fundamentally beyond that of two-level systems.

  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.
