• Title: Oscillating-mode gap: an indicator of phase transition in open quantum many-body systems
• Authors: Taiki Haga,
• Abstract summary: It presents a significant challenge to elucidate the relationship between the phases of open quantum many-body systems and their governing Liouvillian. Previous studies have focused on the Liouvillian gap, defined as the decay rate of the most slowly-decaying mode, as a key indicator of dissipative phase transition. We propose an additional spectral gap, termed the oscillating-mode gap, defined as the decay rate of the most slowly-decaying oscillating mode.

• Abstract: It presents a significant challenge to elucidate the relationship between the phases of open quantum many-body systems and the spectral structure of their governing Liouvillian, which determines how the density matrix evolves. Previous studies have focused on the Liouvillian gap, defined as the decay rate of the most slowly-decaying mode, as a key indicator of dissipative phase transition, noting its closure in symmetry-broken phases and opening in disordered phases. In this work, we propose an additional spectral gap, termed the oscillating-mode gap, defined as the decay rate of the most slowly-decaying oscillating mode. Through the analysis of a prototype dissipative boson system, we demonstrate the necessity of both the Liouvillian gap and the oscillating-mode gap for the comprehensive characterization of the system's phases and the transitions between them.

As the experimental system sizes increase, we show that the wave vectors approach a continuum of values incommensurate with the lattice.

  We present the first experimental evidence of a diffusive NG mode in a non-equilibrium Bose-Einstein condensate of microcavity polaritons. explicitly breaking the symmetry causes the opening of a gap in the spectrum and the disappearance of the NG mode. Our observations confirm the diffusive dynamics of the NG mode of non-equilibrium phase transitions and establish a promising framework to investigate fundamental questions in statistical mechanics.

  We study a model in which the system Hamiltonian and its couplings to the noise are random matrices whose entries decay as power laws of distance. The steady state is always featureless, but the rate at which it is approached exhibits three phases depending on $alpha_H$ and $alpha_L$. Within perturbation theory, the phase boundaries in the $(alpha_H, alpha_L)$ plane differ for weak and strong dissipation, suggesting phase transitions as a function of noise strength.
