• Title: Dynamical transitions from slow to fast relaxation in random open quantum systems
• Authors: Dror Orgad, Vadim Oganesyan, Sarang Gopalakrishnan
• Abstract summary: We study a model in which the system Hamiltonian and its couplings to the noise are random matrices whose entries decay as power laws of distance. The steady state is always featureless, but the rate at which it is approached exhibits three phases depending on $alpha_H$ and $alpha_L$. Within perturbation theory, the phase boundaries in the $(alpha_H, alpha_L)$ plane differ for weak and strong dissipation, suggesting phase transitions as a function of noise strength.

• Abstract: We explore the effects of spatial locality on the dynamics of random quantum systems subject to a Markovian noise. To this end, we study a model in which the system Hamiltonian and its couplings to the noise are random matrices whose entries decay as power laws of distance, with distinct exponents $\alpha_H, \alpha_L$. The steady state is always featureless, but the rate at which it is approached exhibits three phases depending on $\alpha_H$ and $\alpha_L$: a phase where the approach is asymptotically exponential as a result of a gap in the spectrum of the Lindblad superoperator that generates the dynamics, and two gapless phases with subexponential relaxation, distinguished by the manner in which the gap decreases with system size. Within perturbation theory, the phase boundaries in the $(\alpha_H, \alpha_L)$ plane differ for weak and strong dissipation, suggesting phase transitions as a function of noise strength. We identify nonperturbative effects that prevent such phase transitions in the thermodynamic limit.

  In this work, we investigate the effects of quantum noises with size-dependent probabilities $q=p/Lalpha$ where $alpha$ represents the scaling exponent. We have identified a noise-induced entanglement phase transition from a volume law to a power (area) law in the presence (absence) of measurements. This unified picture further deepens the understanding of the connection between entanglement behavior and the capacity of information protection.

  We study how time-dependent energy fluctuations impact the quantum phase transitions following a noisy quench of the transverse magnetic field in a quantum Ising chain. We trace the phenomenon to the interplay between noise-induced excitations which accumulate during the quench and the nearadiabatic dynamics of the system.

We discuss how, and in which sense, the phenomenon of noise-induced barren plateaus emerges in parameterized quantum circuits with a layered noise model.

• Dynamical quantum phase transition in a bosonic system with long-range interactions [0.0]
  We show that the emergence of a dynamical quantum phase transition hinges on the generation of a finite mass gap following the quench. In general, we can define two distinct dynamical phases characterized by the finiteness of the post-quench mass gap. The Loschmidt echo exhibits periodical nonanalytic cusps whenever the initial state has a vanishing mass gap and the final state has a finite mass gap.

  We show that the Zitterbewegung effect manifests itself as a series of quantum beats of the particle density in the long-time limit. We also find a time-domain where the particle density of the point source is governed by the propagation of a main wavefront. The relative positions of these wavefronts are used to investigate the time-delay of quantum waves in the Klein-tunneling regime.
