• Abstract: Dissipative dynamics of quantum systems can be classified topologically based on the correspondence between the Lindbladian in the Gorini-Kossakowski-Sudarshan-Lindblad equation and the non-Hermitian Hamiltonian in the Schr\"{o}dinger equation. While general non-Hermitian Hamiltonians are classified into 38 symmetry classes, previous studies have shown that the Lindbladians are classified into 10 symmetry classes due to a physical constraint. In this work, however, we unveil a topological classification of Lindbladians based on shifted sublattice symmetry (SLS), which can increase the number of symmetry classes for the Lindbladians. We introduce shifted SLS so that the Lindbladian can retain this symmetry and take on the same role as SLS for the topological classification. For verification, we construct a model of a dissipative quantum system retaining shifted SLS and confirm the presence of edge states protected by shifted SLS. Moreover, the relationship between the presence of shifted SLS protected edge states and the dynamics of an observable quantity is also discussed.

  We introduce a method for reconstructing the corresponding Lindbaldian master equation given any target NESS. The kernel (null-space) of the correlation matrix corresponds to Lindbladian solutions. We illustrate the method in different systems, ranging from bosonic Gaussian to dissipative-driven collective spins.

  Topological order offers possibilities for processing quantum information which can be immune to imperfections. We show robustness of certain aspects of $ZZtimes Z$ symmetry-protected trajectory (SPT) order against a wide class of dissipation channels. Our work thus proposes a novel framework to study the dynamics of dissipative SPT phases.

• Quantum Relativity of Subsystems [58.720142291102135]
  We show that different reference frame perspectives induce different sets of subsystem observable algebras, which leads to a gauge-invariant, frame-dependent notion of subsystems and entanglement. Such a QRF perspective does not inherit the distinction between subsystems in terms of the corresponding tensor factorizability of the kinematical Hilbert space and observable algebra. Since the condition for this to occur is contingent on the choice of QRF, the notion of subsystem locality is frame-dependent.

  We show that the winding number of the Hamiltonian eigenstates can be read-out by measuring the mean chiral displacement of a single-particle wavefunction. This implies that the mean chiral displacement can detect the winding number even when the underlying Hamiltonian is quenched between different topological phases.
