• Abstract summary: The spin-vector Langevin (SVL) model has been proposed and tested as an alternative to the Monte Carlo model. We study the nonequilibrium dynamics of classical O(2) rotors on regular graphs. Our results establish a universal breakdown of the Kibble-Zurek mechanism in classical systems characterized by long-range interactions.

• Abstract: The spin-vector Monte Carlo model is widely used as a benchmark for the classicality of quantum annealers but severely restricts the time evolution. The spin-vector Langevin (SVL) model has been proposed and tested as an alternative, closely reproducing the real-time dynamics of physical quantum annealers such as D-Wave machines in the dissipative regime. We investigate the SVL annealing dynamics of classical O(2) rotors on regular graphs, identifying universal features in the nonequilibrium dynamics when changing the range of interactions and the topology of the graph. Regular graphs with low connectance or edge density exhibit universal scaling dynamics consistent with the Kibble-Zurek mechanism, which leads to a power-law dependence of the density of defects and the residual energy as a function of the annealing time. As the interaction range is increased, the power-law scaling is suppressed, and an exponential scaling with the annealing time sets in. Our results establish a universal breakdown of the Kibble-Zurek mechanism in classical systems characterized by long-range interactions, in sharp contrast with previous findings in the quantum domain.

  We consider the self-attention model - an interacting particle system on the unit sphere - which serves as a toy model for Transformers. We prove the appearance of dynamic metastability conjectured in [GLPR23]. We show that under an appropriate time-rescaling, the energy reaches its global maximum in finite time and has a staircase profile.

Our results allow for a rigorous and systematic investigation of the impact of quantum effects on paradigmatic classical models.

  We show that introduction of harmonic and spin-dependent linear potentials sufficiently validates fTWA for longer times. In particular, we focus on a finite two-dimensional system and show that at intermediate linear potential strength, the addition of a harmonic potential and spin dependence of the tilt, results in subdiffusive dynamics.

We show that the temporal fluctuations of the expectation value of the collective spin observable around its average are small and decrease with the effective system size.

We consider protocols where one relevant parameter w is slowly changed across its critical point wc = 0, linearly in time with a large time scale ts.

• Semiclassical dynamics of a disordered two-dimensional Hubbard model with long-range interactions [0.0]
  We analyze Quench dynamics in a two-dimensional system of interacting fermions. For a weak and moderate disorder strength, we observe subdiffusive behavior of charges, while spins exhibit diffusive dynamics. In contrast to the short-range model, strong inhomogeneities such as domain walls in the initial state can significantly slow down thermalization dynamics.
