• Abstract: Besides exploring novel transition patterns, acquiring a full understanding of the transition nature is an ultimate pursuit in studies of phase transitions. The fundamental models of light-matter interactions manifest single-qubit topological phase transitions, which is calling for an analytical demonstration apart from numerical studies. We present a rigorous study for topological transitions in Jaynes-Cummings Model generally with Stark non-linear Coupling. In terms of the properties of Hermite polynomials, we show that the topological structure of the eigen wave function has an exact correspondence to the spin winding by nodes, which yields a full spin winding without anti-winding nodes. The spurious fractional contribution to the winding number of the winding angle at infinity is found to be actually integer. Thus, the phase transitions in the model have a nature of topological phase transitions and the excitation number is endowed as a topological quantum number. The principal transition establishes a paradigmatic case that a transition is both symmetry-breaking Landau class of transition and symmetry-protected topological class of transition simultaneously, while conventionally these two classes of transitions are incompatible due to the contrary symmetry requirements. We also give an understanding for the origin of unconventional topological transitions in the presence of counter-rotating terms. Our results may provide a deeper insight for the few-body phase transitions in light-matter interactions.

  We study perturbations that break the integrability and/or the symmetry of the model, as well as modifications in the measurement protocol, characterizing the resulting chaos and lack of integrability through the Dissipative Spectral Form Factor (DSFF) We show that while the measurement-induced phase transition and its properties appear broadly insensitive to lack of integrability and breaking of the $bbZ$ symmetry, a modification of the measurement basis from the transverse to the longitudinal direction makes the phase transition disappear altogether.

  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.

We find that this entanglement transition is well identified by a combination of the bipartite entanglement entropy and the topological entanglement entropy.

  Non-Hermitian effects could trigger spectrum, localization and topological phase transitions in quasiperiodic lattices. We propose a non-Hermitian extension of the Maryland model, which forms a paradigm in the study of localization and quantum chaos. Explicit expressions of the complex energy dispersions, phase boundaries and mobility edges are found.

We find another scheme to realize the long-sought vector chiral phase, which is robust from quantum fluctuations.

  We show that the winding number of the Hamiltonian eigenstates can be read-out by measuring the mean chiral displacement of a single-particle wavefunction. This implies that the mean chiral displacement can detect the winding number even when the underlying Hamiltonian is quenched between different topological phases.
