• Authors: Shishira Mahunta, Victor Mukherjee,
• Abstract summary: We study shortcuts to adiabaticity (STA) through counterdiabatic driving in quantum critical systems. We evaluate unitary as well as non-unitary controls, such that the system density matrix follows a prescribed trajectory. We expect the counterdiabatic protocol studied here can be of fundamental importance for understanding STA in many-body open quantum systems.

• Abstract: We study shortcuts to adiabaticity (STA) through counterdiabatic driving in quantum critical systems, in the presence of dissipation. We evaluate unitary as well as non-unitary controls, such that the system density matrix follows a prescribed trajectory corresponding to the eigenstates of a time-dependent reference Hamiltonian, at any instant of time. The strength of the dissipator control term for the low energy states show universal scaling close to criticality. Using the example of the transverse-field Ising model, we show that in contrast to STA in closed quantum critical systems, here STA may require multi-body interactions terms, even away from criticality, owing to change in entropy of the time-dependent target state. Further, the associated heat current shows extremum, while power dissipated changes curvature, close to criticality, and analogous to unitary control, no operational cost is associated with implementation of the exact counterdiabatic Hamiltonian. We expect the counterdiabatic protocol studied here can be of fundamental importance for understanding STA in many-body open quantum systems, and can be highly relevant for varied topics involving open many-body quantum systems, such as quantum computation and many-body quantum heat engines.

We derive analytical solutions for the low-energy spectrum of this unconventional quantum many-body system. We evaluate the scaling of the quantum Fisher information with respect to fundamental resources, and find that the critical chain achieves a quadratic enhancement in the number of resonators.

• Probing critical phenomena in open quantum systems using atom arrays [3.365378662696971]
  At quantum critical points, correlations decay as a power law, with exponents determined by a set of universal scaling dimensions. Here, we employ a Rydberg quantum simulator to adiabatically prepare critical ground states of both a one-dimensional ring and a two-dimensional square lattice. By accounting for and tuning the openness of our quantum system, we are able to directly observe power-law correlations and extract the corresponding scaling dimensions.

  Generically, non-integrable quantum systems are expected to thermalize as they comply with the Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis. In the presence of strong disorder, the dynamics can possibly slow down to a degree that systems fail to thermalize on experimentally accessible timescales. We study an ensemble of Heisenberg spins with a tunable distribution of random coupling strengths realized by a Rydberg quantum simulator.

  Local excitations as carriers of quantum information spread out in the system in ways governed by the underlying interaction and symmetry.

  We introduce sufficient conditions for the adiabatic approximation in open quantum systems. We first illustrate our results by showing that the adiabatic approximation for open systems is compatible with the description of quantum thermodynamics at thermal equilibrium. We also apply our sufficient conditions as a tool in quantum control, evaluating the adiabatic behavior for the Hamiltonians of both the Deutsch algorithm and the Landau-Zener model under decoherence.
