• Abstract: In a system where two identical two-level atoms interact with their common one-mode cavity field, it is shown that entanglement can become abruptly frozen in time, remaining at a constant value for a period of time until it begins to thaw from this value from the entanglement sharing perspective [Ding et al., Phys. Rev. A 103, 032418 (2021)]. We generalize this exotic behavior of entanglement sharing dynamics to more general systems with arbitrary N qubits, instead of restricting to the atom-cavity mode interaction system. We also demonstrate methods to control the entanglement freezing time and freezing value, and we discover a nontrivial dynamics where entanglement is frozen permanently. In addition, we show that this phenomenon is not a coincidence but a universal feature in a variety of systems with a geometric explanation of the mechanisms.

• Non-equilibrium dynamics of charged dual-unitary circuits [44.99833362998488]
  interplay between symmetries and entanglement in out-of-equilibrium quantum systems is currently at the centre of an intense multidisciplinary research effort. We show that one can introduce a class of solvable states, which extends that of generic dual unitary circuits. In contrast to the known class of solvable states, which relax to the infinite temperature state, these states relax to a family of non-trivial generalised Gibbs ensembles.

  In the noninteracting case, quantized Thouless pumps can only occur when a topological singularity is encircled adiabatically. In the presence of interactions, such topological transport can even persist for exotic paths in which the system gets arbitrarily close to the noninteracting singularity.

We show that the temporal fluctuations of the expectation value of the collective spin observable around its average are small and decrease with the effective system size.

By placing microwave photons in adjacent qubit sites, we study the propagation of these excitations and observe their bound nature for up to 5 photons.

• Quantum coherence controls the nature of equilibration in coupled chaotic systems [0.0]
  Quantum coherence of the initial product states in the uncoupled eigenbasis can be viewed as a resource for equilibration and approach to thermalization. Results are given for four distinct perturbation strength regimes, the ultra-weak, weak, intermediate, and strong regimes. Maximally coherent initial states thermalize for any perturbation strength in spite of the fact that in the ultra-weak perturbative regime the underlying eigenstates of the system have a tensor product structure and are not at all thermal-like.
