• Authors: Maxime Martinez, Pierre-\'Elie Larr\'e, Dominique Delande and Nicolas Cherroret
• Abstract summary: We show that when the random kinetic energy is smaller than the interaction energy, this system exhibits a much richer dynamical phase diagram. We develop a hydrodynamic theory of this phase and find a very good agreement with exact numerical simulations. We explore the full dynamical phase diagram of the system and find that the transition toward full thermalization is characterized by relatively sharp crossovers.

• Abstract: In the presence of interactions, periodically-driven quantum systems generically thermalize to an infinite-temperature state. Recently, however, it was shown that in random kicked rotors with local interactions, this long-time equilibrium could be strongly delayed by operating in a regime of weakly fluctuating random phases, leading to the emergence of a metastable thermal ensemble. Here we show that when the random kinetic energy is smaller than the interaction energy, this system in fact exhibits a much richer dynamical phase diagram, which includes a low-energy pre-thermal phase characterized by a light-cone spreading of correlations in momentum space. We develop a hydrodynamic theory of this phase and find a very good agreement with exact numerical simulations. We finally explore the full dynamical phase diagram of the system and find that the transition toward full thermalization is characterized by relatively sharp crossovers.

  We discuss the physics of dissipatively coupled Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) lattices in systems with bosonic and electrical constituents. We show that a series of resistively coupled LCR circuits mimics the topology of a dissipatively coupled SSH model. We also elucidate the emergence of non-reciprocal dissipative coupling which can be controlled by the phase of the coherent interaction strength precipitating in phase-dependent topological transitions and skin effect.

We furthermore study the stability of the phases with respect to temperature within the mean-field approximation.
