- Title: Effect of decay of the final states on the probabilities of the
Landau-Zener transitions in multistate non-integrable models
- Authors: Rajesh K. Malla and M. E. Raikh
- Abstract summary: For a Landau-Zener transition in a two-level system, the probability for a particle, initially in the first level, to survive the transition and to remain in the first level, does not depend on whether or not the second level is broadened.
The same question for the multistate Landau-Zener transition is addressed in the present paper.

- Abstract: For a Landau-Zener transition in a two-level system, the probability for a
particle, initially in the first level, to survive the transition and to remain
in the first level, does not depend on whether or not the second level is
broadened [V. M. Akulin and W. P. Schleicht, Phys. Rev. A {\bf 46}, 4110
(1992)]. In other words, the seminal Landau-Zener result applies regardless of
the broadening of the second level. The same question for the multistate
Landau-Zener transition is addressed in the present paper. While for integrable
multistate models, where the transition does not involve interference of the
virtual paths, it can be argued that the independence of the broadening
persists, we focus on non-integrable models involving interference. For a
simple four-state model, which allows an analytical treatment, we demonstrate
that the decay of the excited states affects the survival probability provided
that {\em the widths of the final states are different}.

Recent study demonstrated that steady states of a polariton system may show a first-order dissipative phase transition with an exceptional point.
In general, the exceptional point does not correspond to the endpoint of a phase transition, but rather it is the point where stable and unstable solutions coalesce.

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.

For a Landau-Zener transition in a two-level system, the probability for a particle, initially in the first level, em i, to survive the transition depends exponentially on the square of the tunnel matrix element between the two levels.
The underlying mechanism of this additional coupling is virtual tunneling from em i into continuum followed by tunneling back into em f.

An important problem in any quantum resource theory is to determine how quantum states can be converted into each other.
Very few results have been presented on the intermediate regime between probabilistic and approximate transformations.
We show that these bounds imply an upper bound on the rates for various classes of states under probabilistic transformations.
We also show that the deterministic version of the single copy bounds can be applied for drawing limitations on the manipulation of quantum channels.
