• Abstract: A classical particle in a confining potential gives rise to a Hamiltonian conservative dynamical system with an uncountably infinite continuous energy spectra, whereas the corresponding quantum particle exhibits countably infinite discrete energy levels. We consider a class of nonlinear self-sustained oscillators describing a classical active particle in a harmonic potential. These nonlinear oscillators emerge in the low-memory regime of both state-dependent time-delay systems as well as in non-Markovian stroboscopic models of walking droplets. Using averaging techniques, we prove the existence of a countably infinite number of asymptotically stable quantized orbits, i.e. megastability, for this class of self-excited systems. The set of periodic orbits consists of a sequence of nested limit-cycle attractors with quasilinear increasing amplitude and alternating stability, yielding smooth basins of attraction. By using the Lyapunov energy function, we estimate the energy spectra of this megastable set of orbits, and perform numerical simulations to confirm the mathematical analysis. Our formalism can be extended to self-excited particles in general confining potentials, resulting in different energy-frequency relations for these dynamical analogs of quantization.

We observe that the entanglement phase transitions occurring in the stationary state have the same nature as that occurring in the vacuum of the non-hermitian Hamiltonian.

  We show that the Zitterbewegung effect manifests itself as a series of quantum beats of the particle density in the long-time limit. We also find a time-domain where the particle density of the point source is governed by the propagation of a main wavefront. The relative positions of these wavefronts are used to investigate the time-delay of quantum waves in the Klein-tunneling regime.
