• Title: Limits to Fluctuation Dynamics
• Authors: Ryusuke Hamazaki
• Abstract summary: We show that the time derivative of the standard deviation of an observable is upper bound by the standard deviation of an appropriate observable describing velocity. This indicates a hitherto unknown tradeoff relation between the changes for the mean and standard deviation. Our results open an avenue toward a quantitative theory of fluctuation dynamics in various non-equilibrium systems.

• Abstract: The fluctuation of an experimentally measured observable, along with its mean, constitutes the fundamental ingredient of a non-equilibrium system involving randomness. Despite previous efforts, a comprehensive framework for characterizing the temporal dynamics of fluctuations of observables remains elusive. In this manuscript, we develop a ubiquitous theory concerning rigorous limits to the rate of fluctuation growth. We discover a simple principle that the time derivative of the standard deviation of an observable is upper bound by the standard deviation of an appropriate observable describing velocity. This indicates a hitherto unknown tradeoff relation between the changes for the mean and standard deviation, i.e., the sum of the squares for these quantities cannot exceed certain cost determined by dynamical processes. The cost can be kinetic energy for hydrodynamics, irreversible entropy production rate for thermodynamic processes, energy fluctuations for unitary quantum dynamics, and quantum Fisher information for dissipative quantum dynamics. Our results open an avenue toward a quantitative theory of fluctuation dynamics in various non-equilibrium systems, encompassing quantum many-body systems and nonlinear population dynamics, as well as toward our understanding of how to control them.

  We first demonstrate the diffusive dynamics assisted by controlled dephasing noise in superconducting quantum circuits. We show that dephasing can enhance localization in a superconducting qubit array with quasiperiodic order. By preparing different excitation distributions in the qubit array, we observe that a more localized initial state relaxes to a uniformly distributed mixed state faster with dephasing noise.

We show that one can test the known quantum speed limits and that modifying a single Hamiltonian parameter allows the observation of the crossover of the different bounds on the dynamics.

• Exponentially accelerated approach to stationarity in Markovian open quantum systems through the Mpemba effect [0.0]
  We show that the relaxation dynamics of Markovian open quantum systems can be accelerated exponentially by devising an optimal unitary transformation. This initial "rotation" is engineered in such a way that the state of the quantum system becomes to the slowest decaying dynamical mode. We illustrate our idea by showing how to achieve an exponential speed-up in the convergence to stationarity in Dicke models.
