Abstract: Involvement of the environment is indispensable for establishing the statistical distribution of system. We analyze the statistical distribution of a quantum system coupled strongly with a heat bath. This distribution is determined by tracing over the bath's degrees of freedom for the equilibrium system-plus-bath composite. The stability of system distribution is largely affected by the system--bath interaction strength. We propose that the quantum system exhibits a stable distribution only when its system response function in the frequency domain satisfies $\tilde\chi(\omega = 0+)>0$. We show our results by investigating the non-interacting bosonic impurity system from both the thermodynamic and dynamic perspectives. Our study refines the theoretical framework of canonical statistics, offering insights into thermodynamic phenomena in small-scale systems.

Non-Markovianity of subsystem dynamics in isolated quantum many-body systems [0.0]
It is believed that an isolated quantum many-body system far away from equilibrium should try to attain equilibrium via a mechanism whereby any given subsystem acts as an open quantum system. This picture begs the question whether the dynamics of any given subsystem is Markovian (monotonic loss of information and memory) or non-Markovian.

We study the dynamics of a qubit system interacting with thermalized bath-ancilla spins via a repeated interaction scheme. Our key finding is that deterministic system-ancilla interactions do not typically result in the system thermalizing to the thermal state of the ancilla.

Spin-1/2 XXZ chain coupled to two Lindblad baths: Constructing nonequilibrium steady states from equilibrium correlation functions [0.28087862620958753]
We show that at weak driving, the nonequilibrium steady state in an open system can remarkably be constructed just on the basis of correlation functions numerically in the closed system. We also point out potential pitfalls when extracting transport coefficients from nonequilibrium steady states in finite systems.

Indication of critical scaling in time during the relaxation of an open quantum system [34.82692226532414]
Phase transitions correspond to the singular behavior of physical systems in response to continuous control parameters like temperature or external fields. Near continuous phase transitions, associated with the divergence of a correlation length, universal power-law scaling behavior with critical exponents independent of microscopic system details is found.

Peaceful coexistence of thermal equilibrium and the emergence of time [0.0]
We consider a quantum Universe composed by a small system S and a large environment. Time and non-equilibrium dynamics can emerge as a consequence of the entanglement between the system and the environment.

Entanglement plays a prominent role in the study of condensed matter many-body systems. We show that the scaling of entanglement with the length of a subsystem is highly unusual, containing both a volume-law linear term and a logarithmic term.

Adiabatic quantum decoherence in many non-interacting subsystems induced by the coupling with a common boson bath [0.0]
This work addresses quantum adiabatic decoherence of many-body spin systems coupled with a boson field in the framework of open quantum systems theory. We generalize the traditional spin-boson model by considering a system-environment interaction Hamiltonian that represents a partition of non-interacting subsystems.
