Quantum memory at nonzero temperature in a thermodynamically trivial system

Y Hong, J Guo, A Lucas - Nature Communications, 2025 - nature.com
Passive error correction protects logical information forever (in the thermodynamic limit) by
updating the system based only on local information and few-body interactions. A …

Hydrodynamics as the effective field theory of strong-to-weak spontaneous symmetry breaking

X Huang, M Qi, JH Zhang, A Lucas - arXiv preprint arXiv:2407.08760, 2024 - arxiv.org
Inspired by the hunt for new phases of matter in quantum mixed states, it has recently been
proposed that the equivalence of microcanonical and canonical ensembles in statistical …

Strong-to-weak spontaneous breaking of 1-form symmetry and intrinsically mixed topological order

C Zhang, Y Xu, JH Zhang, C Xu, Z Bi… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
Topological orders in 2+ 1d are spontaneous symmetry-breaking (SSB) phases of 1-form
symmetries in pure states. The notion of symmetry is further enriched in the context of mixed …

Strong-to-weak spontaneous symmetry breaking in mixed quantum states

LA Lessa, R Ma, JH Zhang, Z Bi, M Cheng… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
Symmetry in mixed quantum states can manifest in two distinct forms: strong symmetry,
where each individual pure state in the quantum ensemble is symmetric with the same …

Fluctuation-Dissipation Theorem and Information Geometry in Open Quantum Systems

JH Zhang, C Xu, Y Xu - arXiv preprint arXiv:2409.18944, 2024 - arxiv.org
We propose a fluctuation-dissipation theorem in open quantum systems from an information-
theoretic perspective. We define the fidelity susceptibility that measures the sensitivity of the …

Universal Time-Entanglement Trade-Off in Open Quantum Systems

A Pocklington, AA Clerk - PRX Quantum, 2024 - APS
We demonstrate a surprising connection between pure steady-state entanglement and
relaxation time scales in an extremely broad class of Markovian open systems, where two …

Magnetic dipolar quantum battery with spin-orbit coupling

A Ali, S Elghaayda, S Al-Kuwari, MI Hussain… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
We investigate a magnetic dipolar system influenced by Zeeman splitting, DM interaction,
and KSEA exchange interaction, with an initial focus on quantum resource dynamics and a …

Design nearly optimal quantum algorithm for linear differential equations via Lindbladians

ZX Shang, N Guo, D An, Q Zhao - arXiv preprint arXiv:2410.19628, 2024 - arxiv.org
Solving linear ordinary differential equations (ODE) is one of the most promising
applications for quantum computers to demonstrate exponential advantages. The challenge …

Emergence of the Gibbs ensemble as a steady state in Lindbladian dynamics

SK Sun, S Chen - Physical Review B, 2024 - APS
We explicitly construct unique nonequilibrium steady state (NESS) of the Lindblad master
equation characterized by a Gibbs ensemble ρ NESS∝ e− β H ̃, where the effective …

Local quantum channels giving rise to quasi-local Gibbs states

I Arad, R Firanko, O Gurevich - arXiv preprint arXiv:2408.08672, 2024 - arxiv.org
We study the steady-state properties of quantum channels with local Kraus operators. We
consider a large family that consists of general ergodic 1-local (non-interacting) terms and …
