Here, we elucidate that the skin effect manifests itself as multifractality in the many-body Hilbert space.
Our work establishes a defining characterization of the non-Hermitian skin effect and uncovers a fundamental relationship between multifractality and ergodicity in open quantum many-body systems.

- Abstract: The non-Hermitian skin effect, anomalous localization of an extensive number
of eigenstates induced by nonreciprocal dissipation, plays a pivotal role in
non-Hermitian topology and significantly influences the open quantum dynamics.
However, its genuinely quantum characterization in many-body systems has yet to
be developed. Here, we elucidate that the skin effect manifests itself as
multifractality in the many-body Hilbert space. This multifractality does not
accompany the single-particle skin effect and hence is intrinsic to the
many-body skin effect. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the many-body skin
effect can coexist with spectral statistics of random matrices, in contrast to
multifractality associated with the many-body localization, which necessitates
the absence of ergodicity. We also illustrate multifractality caused by the
Liouvillian skin effect in Markovian open quantum systems. Our work establishes
a defining characterization of the non-Hermitian skin effect and uncovers a
fundamental relationship between multifractality and ergodicity in open quantum
many-body systems.

The non-Hermitian skin effect describes the concentration of an extensive number of eigenstates near the boundaries of certain dissipative systems.
Here we push the concept of skin effect into the fully incoherent regime and show that rather generally (but not universally) the non-Hermitian skin effect persists under dephasing dynamics.

In a wide class of kinetically constrained many-body systems, the skin effect can instead manifest as dynamical amplification within the Fock space.
We show that it gives rise to ergodicity-breaking eigenstates, the non-Hermitian analogs of quantum many-body scars.
Our results show that the Fock skin effect provides a powerful tool for creating robust non-ergodic states in generic open quantum systems.

We show that the single-photon nonlinearity vanishes with the number of emitters.
The mechanism behind this behavior is the quantum Zeno effect, manifested in the slowdown of the photon-controlled dynamics.

We propose a novel type of skin effects in non-Hermitian quantum many-body systems.

Non-Hermitian skin effect, macroscopic collapse of bulk states to the boundary, has been extensively studied in various experimental platforms.
Previous studies have shown that the Pauli exclusion principle suppresses the skin effect.
We present a compelling counterexample by demonstrating the presence of the skin effect in doublon-holon excitations.

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 experimentally prove the feasibility of disordered quantum walks to realize a quantum simulator that is able to model general subdiffusive phenomena.
Our experiment simulates such phenomena by means of a finely controlled insertion of various levels of disorder during the evolution of the walker.
This allows us to explore the full range of subdiffusive behaviors, ranging from anomalous Anderson localization to normal diffusion.
