• Abstract summary: We study a kicked two-site Bose-Hubbard model (Bose-Hubbard dimer) with the on-site potential difference being periodically modulated. By analyzing spectral statistics of Floquet operator, we unveil that the system undergoes a transition from regularity to chaos with increasing the interaction strength. The semiclassical analysis also suggests that the system in chaotic regime may display different dynamical behavior depending on the choice of initial states.

• Abstract: Systems of interacting bosons in double-well potentials, modeled by two-site Bose-Hubbard models, are of significant theoretical and experimental interest and attracted intensive studies in contexts ranging from many-body physics and quantum dynamics to the onset of quantum chaos. In this work we systematically study a kicked two-site Bose-Hubbard model (Bose-Hubbard dimer) with the on-site potential difference being periodically modulated. Our model can be equivalently represented as a kicked Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick model and thus displays different dynamical behaviors from the kicked top model. By analyzing spectral statistics of Floquet operator, we unveil that the system undergoes a transition from regularity to chaos with increasing the interaction strength. Then based on semiclassical approximation and the analysis of R\'{e}nyi entropy of coherent states in the basis of Floquet operator eigenstates, we reveal the local chaotic features of our model, which indicate the existence of integrable islands even in the deep chaotic regime. The semiclassical analysis also suggests that the system in chaotic regime may display different dynamical behavior depending on the choice of initial states. Finally, we demonstrate that dynamical signatures of chaos can be manifested by studying dynamical evolution of local operators and out of time order correlation function as well as the entanglement entropy. Our numerical results exhibit the richness of dynamics of the kicked Bose-Hubbard dimer in both regular and chaotic regimes as the initial states are chosen as coherent spin states located in different locations of phase space.

  Isolated interacting quantum systems generally thermalize, yet there are several counterexamples for the breakdown of ergodicity. Recently, ergodicity breaking has been observed in systems subjected to linear potentials, termed Stark many-body localization. Here, we experimentally explore initial-state dependent dynamics using a ladder-type superconducting processor with up to 24 qubits.

We perform large-scale quantum simulations that monitor the full counting statistics of particle-number fluctuations in boson ladders. Our results suggest that large-scale fluctuations of isolated quantum systems display emergent hydrodynamic behavior.

  We investigate within a spin-boson model the influence of a super-Ohmic environment on the dynamics of a quantum two-state system. Super-Ohmic purely dephasing fluctuations strongly suppress the amplitude of coherent dynamics at very short times. The according phase separation line shows also a non-monotonous behaviour, very similar to the pseudo-coherent dynamics.

  We show that introduction of harmonic and spin-dependent linear potentials sufficiently validates fTWA for longer times. In particular, we focus on a finite two-dimensional system and show that at intermediate linear potential strength, the addition of a harmonic potential and spin dependence of the tilt, results in subdiffusive dynamics.

  We study the dynamical properties of a driven-dissipative Bose-Hubbard model in the strongly interacting regime. We take classical and quantum correlations into account. We show that approximation techniques relying on a unimodal distribution such as the mean field and $1/z$ expansion drastically underestimate the particle number fluctuations.

• The nonlinear semiclassical dynamics of the unbalanced, open Dicke model [0.0]
  The Dicke model exhibits a quantum phase transition to a state in which the atoms collectively emit light into the cavity mode, known as superradiance. We study this system in the semiclassical (mean field) limit, neglecting the role of quantum fluctuations. We find that a flip of the collective spin can result in the sudden emergence of chaotic dynamics.
