• Abstract: The entanglement dynamics in a non-Hermitian quantum system is studied numerically and analyzed from the viewpoint of quasiparticle picture. As a concrete model, we consider a one-dimensional tight-binding model with asymmetric hopping (Hatano-Nelson model) under onsite disorder and nearest-neighbor interaction. As opposed to an assertion of previous studies, the entanglement dynamics in this non-Hermitian quantum system is very different from the one in its Hermitian counterpart, especially in the delocalized regime with weak disorder; there the entanglement entropy $S_{\rm ent}(t)$ shows a characteristic non-monotonic time evolution. We have clarified and quantified the nature of this behavior in the quasiparticle picture. In the asymptotic regime of $t\rightarrow\infty$, the entanglement entropy $S_{\rm ent}(t)$ in this regime saturates to a much suppressed value, which increases only logarithmically with respect to the size of the subsystem.

• Entangling dynamics from effective rotor/spin-wave separation in U(1)-symmetric quantum spin models [0.0]
  Non-equilibrium dynamics of quantum spin models is a most challenging topic, due to the exponentiality of Hilbert space. A particularly important class of evolutions is the one governed by U(1) symmetric Hamiltonians. We show that the dynamics of the OAT model can be closely reproduced by systems with power-lawdecaying interactions.

  We argue that the division between quantum and classical behaviors is analogous to the division of thermodynamic phases. A specific relationship between the collapse parameter $(lambda)$ and the collapse length scale ($r_C$) plays the role of the coexistence curve in usual thermodynamic phase diagrams.

  We show that introduction of harmonic and spin-dependent linear potentials sufficiently validates fTWA for longer times. In particular, we focus on a finite two-dimensional system and show that at intermediate linear potential strength, the addition of a harmonic potential and spin dependence of the tilt, results in subdiffusive dynamics.

  We discuss the onset of quantum chaos and thermalization in the two-mode Dicke model. The two-mode Dicke model exhibits normal to superradiant quantum phase transition. We show that the temporal fluctuations of the expectation value of the collective spin observable around its average are small and decrease with the effective system size.

  Unavoidable coupling of quantum systems to external degrees of freedom leads to dissipative (non-unitary) dynamics. We introduce a method to deal with these systems based on the calculation of (dissipative) lattice Green's function. We illustrate the power of this method with several examples of driven-dissipative bosonic chains of increasing complexity.

  Non-Hermiticity and dephasing realize unconventional entanglement evolution in a disordered quantum medium. We first consider how wave packet spreads in a non-Hermitian disordered system for demonstraing that it is very different from the Hermitian case. We then analyze how the entanglement entropy of the system evolves in the interacting non-Hermitian model.
