• Abstract: The Markovianity of quantum dynamics is an important property of open quantum systems determined by various ingredients of the system and bath. Apart from the system-bath interaction, the initial state of the bath, etc., the dimension of the bath plays a critical role in determining the Markovianity of quantum dynamics, as a strict decay of the bath correlations requires an infinite dimension for the bath. In this work, we investigate the role of finite bath dimension in the Markovianity of quantum dynamics by considering a simple but nontrivial model in which a central spin is isotropically coupled to a finite number of bath spins, and show how the dynamics of the central spin transits from non-Markovian to Markovian as the number of the bath spins increases. The non-Markovianity is characterized by the information backflow from the bath to the system in terms of the trace distance of the system states. We derive the time evolution of the trace distance analytically, and find novel periodic collapse-revival patterns in the information flow. The mechanism underlying this phenomenon is investigated in detail, and it shows that the period of the collapse-revival pattern is determined by the competition between the number of the bath spins, the system-bath coupling strength and the frequency detuning. When the number of bath spins is sufficiently large, the period of the collapse-revival structure as well as the respective collapse and revival times increases in proportion to the number of the bath spins, which characterizes how the information backflow decays with a large dimension of the bath. We also analyze the effect of the system-bath interaction strength and frequency detuning on the collapse-revival patterns of the information flow, and obtain the condition for the existence of the collapse-revival structure. The results are illustrated by numerical computation.

  The quantum regression theorem states that the correlations of a system at two different times are governed by the same equations of motion as the temporal response of the average values. Here we experimentally demonstrate that the two-time particle number correlations in a photon Bose-Einstein condensate inside a dye-filled microcavity exhibit the same dynamics as the response of the condensate to a sudden perturbation of the dye molecule bath. This confirms the regression theorem for a quantum gas and, moreover, establishes a test of this relation in an unconventional form where the perturbation acts on the bath and only the condensate response is monitored.

  We investigate the tripartite entanglement dynamics of pure and mixed states in the presence of a structured dephasing environment at finite temperature. We show that the robustness of the quantum system to decoherence is dependent on the distribution of entanglement. The sustainability of tripartite entanglement is shown to be enhanced significantly in presence of reservoir memory.

  Signatures of localization have been observed in condensed matter and cold atomic systems. We propose a model of one-dimensional chain of non-interacting, spinless fermions coupled to a local ensemble of baths. We show that the steady state of the system undergoes a localization entanglement phase transition by tuning $p$ which remains stable in the presence of coherent hopping.

  Phase transitions correspond to the singular behavior of physical systems in response to continuous control parameters like temperature or external fields. Near continuous phase transitions, associated with the divergence of a correlation length, universal power-law scaling behavior with critical exponents independent of microscopic system details is found.
