• Abstract: We design several examples of constrained, symmetric quantum circuit dynamics that generate non-equilibrium steady states. The qubit networks maintain local memory of the initial conditions and display inhomogeneous subsystem dynamics over long times, clearly distinguishable from approximately thermalizing networks of the same size. Each network can be described as an ensemble of open systems, a collection of qubits evolving with phase-covariant dynamics. Constraints from the conservation law and global unitary dynamics of the entire network bound the distribution of single-qubit dynamics in the ensemble, but different steady states are distinguishable by several measures. We quantify the distance of the steady states from the homogeneous steady state and further characterize them using the complexity of their mutual information networks, the volume of state space explored, a thermodynamic utility measure using extractable work, and correlated structure in the occurrence of non-completely positive qubit propagator maps.

• Tensor Product Structure Geometry under Unitary Channels [0.0]
  Locality is typically defined with respect to a product structure (TPS) which identifies the local subsystems of the quantum system. We show that this TPS distance is related to scrambling properties of the dynamics between the local subsystems and coincides with the power of entangling of 2-unitaries. For Hamiltonian evolutions at short times, the characteristic timescale of the TPS distance depends on scrambling rates determined by the strength of interactions between the local subsystems.

  Our study uses a Fokker-Planck approach, adapted from statistical physics, to explore these parallels. We focus in particular on the stationary state of the system in the long-time limit, which in conventional SGD is out of equilibrium. We propose a new variation of Langevin dynamics (SGLD) that harnesses without replacement minibatching.

  Unavoidable coupling of quantum systems to external degrees of freedom leads to dissipative (non-unitary) dynamics. We introduce a method to deal with these systems based on the calculation of (dissipative) lattice Green's function. We illustrate the power of this method with several examples of driven-dissipative bosonic chains of increasing complexity.
