• Abstract: We investigate the effects of uncorrelated noise on dynamical quantum phase transitions (DQPTs) following a quantum ramp across critical points in two different scenarios. First, we show that for a slow ramp in the XY model caused by a stochastically driven field an intriguing and counterintuitive phenomenon arises where the Loschmidt amplitude vanishes in an entire critical region in time. At the boundaries of such a region, DQPTs in the return rate with diverging slopes appear in contrast to the regular DQPTs with finite slopes for a ramp without noise. We also show that the critical ramp velocity beyond which DQPTs disappear entirely, as well as the critical ramp velocity separating the regime with critical regions in time from the regime with standard DQPTs, are both described by universal scaling functions. Second, we study the impact of the environment on DQPTs based on the Kubo-Anderson spectral diffusion process, where the environmental effects on the system are simulated as stochastic fluctuations in the energy levels of the post-ramp Hamiltonian. In this framework, the noise master equation can be solved analytically both for uncorrelated and correlated noise. The obtained analytical expression for the return rate reveals that DQPTs in this case are always completely eliminated.

  We focus on the critical dynamics of the one-dimensional quasiperiodic p-wave-paired Aubry-Andr'e-Harper model. Two plateaus intrinsically affect the critical dynamics with moderate quench rate by employing both one-way and round-trip quench protocols. We show how the position of the neck can be used to quantitatively determine the turning point of the two KZ sub-regimes.

• Scaling and Universality at Ramped Quench Dynamical Quantum Phase Transition [0.0]
  The nonequilibrium dynamics of a periodically driven extended XY model is investigated using the notion of dynamical quantum phase transitions (DQPTs) We have shown that the critical points of the model, where the gap closing occurs, can be moved by tuning the driven frequency. On the basis of numerical simulations, we find that the dynamical free energy scales linerly with time, with the exponent $nu=1pm 0.01$ for all sweep velocities and driven frequencies.

  In variational quantum algorithms the parameters of a parameterized quantum circuit are optimized in order to minimize a cost function that encodes the solution of the problem. We discuss how, and in which sense, the phenomenon of noise-induced barren plateaus emerges in parameterized quantum circuits with a layered noise model.

• Dynamical transitions from slow to fast relaxation in random open quantum systems [0.0]
  We study a model in which the system Hamiltonian and its couplings to the noise are random matrices whose entries decay as power laws of distance. The steady state is always featureless, but the rate at which it is approached exhibits three phases depending on $alpha_H$ and $alpha_L$. Within perturbation theory, the phase boundaries in the $(alpha_H, alpha_L)$ plane differ for weak and strong dissipation, suggesting phase transitions as a function of noise strength.

  We show two types of dynamical quantum phase transitions (DQPTs) in a quantum Rabi model. One refers to distinct phases according to long-time averaged order parameters, the other is focused on the non-analytical behavior emerging in the rate function of the Loschmidt echo. We find the critical times at which the rate function becomes non-analytical, showing its associated critical exponent as well as the corrections introduced by a finite frequency ratio.

  We show that the Zitterbewegung effect manifests itself as a series of quantum beats of the particle density in the long-time limit. We also find a time-domain where the particle density of the point source is governed by the propagation of a main wavefront. The relative positions of these wavefronts are used to investigate the time-delay of quantum waves in the Klein-tunneling regime.
