• Abstract: Recent experiments have reported that novel physics emerge in open quantum many-body sys- tems due to an interplay of interactions and dissipation, which stimulate theoretical studies of the many-body Lindblad equation. Although the strong dissipation regime receives considerable in- terest in this context, this work focuses on the weak bulk dissipation. By examining the spectral property of the many-body Lindblad generator for specific models, we find that its spectral gap shows singularity in the weak dissipation limit when the thermodynamic limit is taken first. Based on analytical arguments and numerical calculations, we conjecture that such a singularity is generic in bulk-dissipated quantum many-body systems and is related to the concept of the Ruelle-Pollicott resonance in chaos theory, which determines the timescale of thermalization of an isolated system. This conjecture suggests that the many-body Lindblad equation in the weak dissipation regime contains nontrivial information on intrinsic properties of a quantum many-body system.

  Existing approaches for estimating the mixing time of open quantum systems often rely on the spectral gap estimation of the Lindbladian generator. We propose a novel theoretical framework to estimate the mixing time of open quantum systems that treats the Hamiltonian and dissipative part separately. The technique is based on the construction of an energy functional inspired by the hypocoercivity of (classical) kinetic theory.

• On the generality of symmetry breaking and dissipative freezing in quantum trajectories [0.0]
  We argue that dissipative freezing is a general consequence of the presence of a strong symmetry in an open system with only a few exceptions. In the limiting case that eigenmodes with purely imaginary eigenvalues are manifest in these sectors, freezing fails to occur. The absence of freezing at the level of a single quantum trajectory provides a simple, computationally efficient way of identifying these traceless modes.

  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.

  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.

  We study how the probability of presence of a particle is distributed between the two parts of a composite fermionic system. We prove that it is a non-perturbative property and we find out a large/small coupling constant duality. Inspired by the proof of KAM theorem, we are able to deal with this problem by introducing a cut-off in energies that eliminates these small denominators.
