• Abstract: The Mpemba effect was originally referred to as the faster icing of a higher-temperature system than a lower-temperature system, and was later generalized to anomalous decays of both classical and quantum observables to equilibrium states. Mpemba effect is mostly considered in classical systems and during cooling processes towards equilibrium states. We investigate the emergence of the effect in nonequilibrium quantum systems where the system has no asymptotic equilibrium state to approach. Instead, the system is put in contact with two different baths, and only a nonequilibrium state exists, sustained by constant energy injection from the surrounding thermal baths. Firstly, we show that the nonequilibrium conditions can dramatically enlarge the parameter regimes where the MPE emerges. Secondly, we demonstrate that the anomalous MPEs and inverse MPEs emerge in the evolution of quantum correlations in the two-site fermionic system and that nonequilibrium conditions can expedite or delay the MPEs. Thirdly, we show that the nonequilibrium-induced quantum coherence can have considerable contributions to the emergence of the MPE which the conventional Lindbladian dynamics fails to capture.

• Mpemba effect and super-accelerated thermalization in the damped quantum harmonic oscillator [0.0]
  Mpemba effect implies that non-equilibrium states can relax more rapidly when they are further from equilibrium. We show a quantum manifestation of the Mpemba effect in a simple and paradigmatic model of open quantum systems. In particular, one can find a broad class of far-from-equilibrium distributions that relax to equilibrium faster than any other initial thermal state.

  interplay between symmetries and entanglement in out-of-equilibrium quantum systems is currently at the centre of an intense multidisciplinary research effort. We show that one can introduce a class of solvable states, which extends that of generic dual unitary circuits. In contrast to the known class of solvable states, which relax to the infinite temperature state, these states relax to a family of non-trivial generalised Gibbs ensembles.

• Thermodynamics of the quantum Mpemba effect [0.0]
  We show that an exponential speedup to equilibrium will always occur if the state is transformed to a diagonal state in the energy eigenbasis. When the transformed state has a higher nonequilibrium free energy, we argue using thermodynamic reasoning that this is a textitgenuine quantum Mpemba effect.

  We realize the Floquet NHSE in periodically modulated optical waveguides integrated on a silicon photonics platform. Remarkably, we discover the transitions between the normal unipolar NHSEs and an unconventional bipolar NHSE. Our work unfolds a new route toward Floquet NHSEs originating from the interplay between gauge fields and dissipation effects.

This work systematically reveals abundant many-body phases in the 1D JCH model and clarifies the discrepancies in the thermalization properties of systems with and without disorder.

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 present a general nonequilibrium Fluctuation-Dissipation Theorem (FDT) for quantum Markovian processes where the detailed-balance condition is violated. Apart from the fluctuations, the relaxation involves extra correlation that is governed by the quantum curl flux emerged in the far-from-equilibrium regime. Our results have the advantage of and exceed the scope of the fluctuation-dissipation relation in the perturbative and near equilibrium regimes.

  An explicit expression for the temperature of an open two-level quantum system is obtained. This temperature coincides with the environment temperature if the system reaches thermal equilibrium with a heat reservoir. We show that within this theoretical framework the total entropy production can be partitioned into two contributions.
