• Abstract summary: We consider the topological properties of the so-called central spin model that consists of $N$ identical spins coupled to a single distinguishable central spin. We find that the model accommodates topologically protected eigenstates that are Bell-cat' states consisting of a Schr"odinger cat state of the $N$ spins that is maximally entangled with the central spin.

• Abstract: We consider the topological properties of the so-called central spin model that consists of $N$ identical spins coupled to a single distinguishable central spin which arises in physical systems such as circuit-QED and bosonic Josephson junctions coupled to an impurity atom. The model closely corresponds to the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model except that the chain of sites in the SSH model is replaced by a chain of states in Fock space specifying the magnetization. We find that the model accommodates topologically protected eigenstates that are `Bell-cat' states consisting of a Schr\"{o}dinger cat state of the $N$ spins that is maximally entangled with the central spin, and show how this state can be adiabatically created and moved along the chain by driving the central spin. We visualize the Bell-cat states by plotting their Wigner function and also show their robustness against random noise by solving the master equation for the density matrix.

  We propose a novel solid-state platform for creating quantum simulators based on implanted spin centers in semiconductors. We show that under the presence of an external magnetic field, an array of $S=1$ spin centers interacting through magnetic dipole-dipole interaction can be mapped into an effective spin-half system. This system presents a wide range of quantum phases and critical behaviors that can be controlled via magnetic field and orientational arrangement of the spin centers.

  We consider a spin-$j$ particle coupled to a structured bath of bosonic modes that decay into thermal baths. In the heavily overdamped regime, spin coherences are preserved due to a quantum Zeno affect. We show that our solution applies to defects in solid-state systems, such as NV$-$ centres in diamond.
