• Abstract: We consider scattering processes where a quantum system is comprised of an inner subsystem and of a boundary, and is subject to Haar-averaged random unitaries acting on the boundary-environment Hilbert space only. We show that, regardless of the initial state, a single scattering event will disentangle the unconditional state (i.e., the scattered state when no information about the applied unitary is available) across the inner subsystem-boundary partition. Also, we apply Levy's lemma to constrain the trace norm fluctuations around the unconditional state. Finally, we derive analytical formulae for the mean scattered purity for initial globally pure states, and provide one with numerical evidence of the reduction of fluctuations around such mean values with increasing environmental dimension.

• Natural disorder distributions from measurement [0.0]
  We consider scenarios where the dynamics of a quantum system are partially determined by prior local measurements of some interacting environmental degrees of freedom. We derive the properties of distributions for both quadrature and photon number measurements. Given a notion of naturally occurring measurement, this suggests a new class of scenarios for the dynamics of quantum systems in particle physics and cosmology.

• Asymptotic Purification of Quantum Trajectories under Random Generalized Measurements [0.0]
  We study quantum trajectories resulting from repeated random measurements subject to stationary noise. The resulting trajectory of quantum states is a time-inhomogeneous Markov chain in a random environment. We prove that purification occurs if and only if this collection of random subspaces is empty.

  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.

  We analyze the role of boundary conditions in the statistics of topological defects. We show that for fast and moderate quenches, the cumulants of the kink number distribution present a universal scaling with the quench rate.

  Fermi's Golden Rule (FGR) applies in the limit where an initial quantum state is weakly coupled to a continuum of other final states overlapping its energy. Here we investigate what happens away from this limit, where the set of final states is discrete, with a nonzero mean level spacing.

• Unconventional mechanism of virtual-state population through dissipation [125.99533416395765]
  We report a phenomenon occurring in open quantum systems by which virtual states can acquire a sizable population in the long time limit. This means that the situation where the virtual state remains unpopulated can be metastable. We show how these results can be relevant for practical questions such as the generation of stable and metastable entangled states in dissipative systems of interacting qubits.

  We study the phenomenon of transmission across the singularity that separates the two half-cylinders. All the local realisations of the free (Laplace-Beltrami) quantum Hamiltonian are examined as non-equivalent protocols of transmission/reflection. This allows to comprehend the distinguished status of the so-called bridging' transmission protocol previously identified in the literature.
