• Abstract: Noninvertible symmetry generalizes traditional group symmetries, advancing our understanding of quantum matter, especially one-dimensional gapped quantum systems. In critical lattice models, it is usually realized as emergent symmetries in the corresponding low-energy conformal field theories. In this work, we study critical lattice models with the noninvertible Rep($D_8$) symmetry in one dimension. This leads us to a new class of quantum critical points (QCP), noninvertible symmetry-enriched QCPs, as a generalization of known group symmetry-enriched QCPs. They are realized as phase transitions between one noninvertible symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phase and another different one or spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) phase. We identify their low-energy properties and topological features through the Kennedy-Tasaki (KT) duality transformation. We argue that distinct noninvertible symmetry-enriched QCPs can not be smoothly connected without a phase transition or a multi-critical point.

  We develop a method to detect quantum anomalies in systems with subsystem symmetry. Using numerical simulations, we demonstrate the power of this method by identifying strong and weak $Ztautimes Zsigma$ SSPT phases. We extend the anomaly indicator to mixed-state density matrices and show that quantum anomalies of subsystem symmetry can persist under both uniform and alternating disorders.

  We propose an alternative paradigm for the symmetry-informed construction of variational quantum circuits. We achieve this by introducing horizontal quantum gates, which only transform the state with respect to the directions to those of the symmetry. For a particular subclass of horizontal gates based on symmetric spaces, we can obtain efficient circuit decompositions for our gates through the KAK theorem.

• Hidden symmetry and tunnelling dynamics in asymmetric quantum Rabi models [0.0]
  The asymmetric quantum Rabi model (AQRM) has a broken $mathbbZ$ symmetry, with generally a non-degenerate eigenvalue spectrum. This unknown "symmetry" has thus been referred to as hidden symmetry in the literature. We show that this hidden symmetry is not limited to the AQRM, but exists in various related light-matter interaction models with an asymmetric qubit bias term.
