• Abstract: A driven quantum system can experience Landau-Zener-Stuckelberg-Majorana (LZSM) transitions between its states, when the respective energy levels quasi-cross. If this quasicrossing is traversed repeatedly under periodic driving, the trajectories can interfere either constructively or destructively. In the latter case, known as coherent destruction of tunneling, the transition between the energy states is suppressed. Even for the double-passage case, the accumulated phase difference (also referred to as the Stuckelberg phase) can lead to destructive interference, resulting in no transition. In this paper, we discuss a similar process for the single-passage dynamics. We study the LZSM single-passage problem starting from a superposition state. The phase difference of this initial state results in interference. When this results in either a zero or a unit transition probability, such a situation can be called single-passage complete localization in a target state. The phase can be chosen so that the occupation probabilities do not change after the transition, which is analogous to the problem of transitionless driving. We demonstrate how varying the system parameters (driving velocity, initial phase, initial detuning) can be used for quantum coherent control.

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.

  How the property of quantum many-body system especially the phase transition will be affected by the non-hermiticity remains unclear. We show that there is a continuous phase transition induced by the non-hermiticity in QCP. We observe that the order parameter and susceptibility display infinitely even for finite size system, since non-hermiticity endows universality many-body system with different singular behaviour from classical phase transition.
