• Title: Dynamical transition of quantum scrambling in a non-Hermitian Floquet synthetic system
• Authors: Liang Huo, Han Ke, Wen-Lei Zhao
• Abstract summary: We investigate quantum scrambling in a non-Hermitian quantum kicked rotor subjected to quasi-periodical modulation in kicking potential. We find the dynamical transition from the freezing phase to the chaotic scrambling phase, which is assisted by increasing the real part of the kicking potential. The underlying mechanism is uncovered by the extension of the Floquet theory.

• Abstract: We investigate the dynamics of quantum scrambling, characterized by the out-of-time ordered correlators (OTOCs), in a non-Hermitian quantum kicked rotor subjected to quasi-periodical modulation in kicking potential. Quasi-periodic modulation with incommensurate frequencies creates a high-dimensional synthetic space, where two different phases of quantum scrambling emerge: the freezing phase characterized by the rapid increase of OTOCs towards saturation, and the chaotic scrambling featured by the linear growth of OTOCs with time. We find the dynamical transition from the freezing phase to the chaotic scrambling phase, which is assisted by increasing the real part of the kicking potential along with a zero value of its imaginary part. The opposite transition occurs with the increase in the imaginary part of the kicking potential, demonstrating the suppression of quantum scrambling by non-Hermiticity. The underlying mechanism is uncovered by the extension of the Floquet theory. Possible applications in the field of quantum information are discussed.

  We investigate the dynamics of directed current, mean energy, and quantum scrambling in an interacting Floquet system with a ratchet potential. The directed current is controlled by the phase of the ratchet potential and remains independent of the self-interaction strength. The phase modulation induced by self-interaction dominates the quadratic growth of both mean energy and Out-of-Time-Ordered Correlators (OTOCs)

  We study theoretically an array of two-level qubits moving relative to a one-dimensional waveguide.

We develop a comprehensive general theoretical framework that incorporates both perturbative diagrammatic techniques and a rigorous master-equation approach.

We find that the OTOCs of different types increase in a quadratic function of time, breaking the freezing of quantum scrambling induced by the dynamical localization under non-resonance condition.

• Dynamical Topological Quantum Phase Transitions at Criticality [0.0]
  We contribute to expanding the systematic understanding of the interrelation between the equilibrium quantum phase transition and the dynamical quantum phase transition (DQPT) Specifically, we find that dynamical quantum phase transition relies on the existence of massless it propagating quasiparticles as signaled by their impact on the Loschmidt overlap. The underlying two dimensional model reveals gapless modes, which do not couple to the dynamical quantum phase transitions, while relevant massless quasiparticles present periodic nonanalytic signatures on the Loschmidt amplitude.
