• Title: Hilbert space fragmentation imposed real spectrum of non-Hermitian systems
• Authors: Somsubhra Ghosh, K. Sengupta, Indranil Paul,
• Abstract summary: We show that constraints imposed by strong Hilbert space fragmentation along with the presence of certain global symmetries can ensure the reality of eigenspectra of non-Hermitian quantum systems. We demonstrate this insight for two interacting finite chains, namely the fermionic Nelson-Hatano and the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger models.

• Abstract: We show that constraints imposed by strong Hilbert space fragmentation (HSF) along with the presence of certain global symmetries can ensure the reality of eigenspectra of non-Hermitian quantum systems; such a reality cannot be guaranteed by global symmetries alone. We demonstrate this insight for two interacting finite chains, namely the fermionic Nelson-Hatano and the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger models, none of which has a $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetry. We show analytically that strong HSF and real spectrum are both consequences of the same dynamical constraints in the limit of large interaction, provided the systems have sufficient global symmetries. We also show that a local equal-time correlation function can detect the many-body exceptional point at a finite critical interaction strength above which the eigenspectrum is real.

  We show a frustration-free lattice model exhibiting SSB of a non-onsite symmetry. We analytically prove the two-fold ground-state degeneracy and the existence of a finite energy gap. Our work reveals the exotic features of SSB of non-onsite symmetries, which may lie beyond the framework of topological holography.

  We study phase transitions occurring in the stationary state of the dynamics of integrable many-body non-Hermitian Hamiltonians. We observe that the entanglement phase transitions occurring in the stationary state have the same nature as that occurring in the vacuum of the non-hermitian Hamiltonian.

  Min-max optimization problems arise in several key machine learning setups, including adversarial learning and generative modeling. In this work we focus instead in finding mixed equilibria, and consider the associated lifted problem in the space of probability measures. By adding entropic regularization, our main result establishes global convergence towards the global equilibrium.

• Quantum scars and bulk coherence in a symmetry-protected topological phase [0.0]
  We show the existence of many-body scars and their implications on bulk coherence in certain protected topological (SPT) phases. We show that eigenstates with volume-law entanglement coexist with area-law entangled eigenstates throughout the spectrum. Our work sheds light on the role of quantum many-body scars in preserving SPT order at finite temperature and the possibility of coherent bulk dynamics in models with SPT order beyond the existence of long-lived edge modes.

  Heisenberg-comb acts on a Hilbert space with only two qubits per spatial lattice site. We show that the model reproduces the universal step-scaling function of the traditional model up to correlation lengths of 200,000 in lattice units. We argue that near-term quantum computers may suffice to demonstrate freedom.
