• Abstract: Giannelli and Chiribella derived an observable-generator duality for energy from a collision model of informational nonequilibrium. We study a continuous-variable version aimed at the Galilean one-particle sector. A smooth family of reference states around an isotropic equilibrium supplies time, translation, rotation, and boost directions. The local observable-generator correspondence is obtained by differentiating a smooth extension of the single-state duality map, and the norm-one property of localization is obtained from a fiducial focusing assumption together with covariance. Combined with the standard smearing form of covariant localization observables, this yields sharp localization. With local inertial composition, the spin-cover action of rotations, and a central boost-translation holonomy, every irreducible sector is unitarily equivalent to the Hilbert space L2(R3) tensored with a (2s+1)-dimensional spin space. In that representation translations are generated by the canonical momentum, the holonomy is a scalar mass m > 0, boosts at t = 0 are generated by m times the position observable, the Hamiltonian is the free-particle kinetic term plus a constant E0, and the total angular momentum is orbital plus spin.

  The fractional angular momentum of a two-dimensional charge-flux composite is a well-established phenomenon.<n>However, when the composite is treated as an isolated system in free two-dimensional space, the fundamental rotational and reflection symmetries of the $O(2)$ group demand that its total angular momentum is strictly quantized.<n>We demonstrate that the interaction between the charge and flux, mediated by the vacuum electromagnetic field, generates an intrinsic interaction angular momentum.

• Entanglement and localization in long-range quadratic Lindbladians [49.1574468325115]
  Signatures of localization have been observed in condensed matter and cold atomic systems. We propose a model of one-dimensional chain of non-interacting, spinless fermions coupled to a local ensemble of baths. We show that the steady state of the system undergoes a localization entanglement phase transition by tuning $p$ which remains stable in the presence of coherent hopping.

We identify different regimes of their evolution depending on the values of the field mass and the quench regularization parameter. We also investigate the local quenches in massive scalar field theory on a cylinder and show that they cause an erratic and chaotic-like evolution of observables.

All the local realisations of the free (Laplace-Beltrami) quantum Hamiltonian are examined as non-equivalent protocols of transmission/reflection. This allows to comprehend the distinguished status of the so-called bridging' transmission protocol previously identified in the literature.
