• Abstract: We study the effect of Kerr anharmonicity on the symmetry breaking phenomena of coupled quantum oscillators. We study two types of symmetry-breaking processes, namely the inhomogeneous steady state (or quantum oscillation death state) and quantum chimera state. Remarkably, it is found that Kerr nonlinearity hinders the process of symmetry-breaking in both the cases. We establish our results using direct simulation of quantum master equation and analysis of the stochastic semiclassical model. Interestingly, in the case of quantum oscillation death, an increase in the strength of Kerr nonlinearity tends to favor the symmetry and at the same time decreases the degree of quantum mechanical entanglement. This study presents a useful mean to control and engineer symmetry-breaking states for quantum technology.

  We find an interesting symmetry-breaking transition from quantum limit cycle oscillation to quantum inhomogeneous steady state. This transition is contrary to the previously known symmetry-breaking transition from quantum homogeneous to inhomogeneous steady state. Remarkably, we find the generation of entanglement associated with the symmetry-breaking transition that has no analogue in the classical domain.

  We introduce a quantum version for the statistical complexity measure, in the context of quantum information theory, and use it as a signalling function of quantum order-disorder transitions. We apply our measure to two exactly solvable Hamiltonian models, namely: the $1D$-Quantum Ising Model and the Heisenberg XXZ spin-$1/2$ chain. We also compute this measure for one-qubit and two-qubit reduced states for the considered models, and analyse its behaviour across its quantum phase transitions for finite system sizes as well as in the thermodynamic limit by using Bethe ansatz.
