Heralded magnetism in non-Hermitian atomic systems

TE Lee, CK Chan - Physical Review X, 2014 - APS
Quantum phase transitions are usually studied in terms of Hermitian Hamiltonians. However,
cold-atom experiments are intrinsically non-Hermitian because of spontaneous decay. Here …

Higher-order exceptional point in a cavity magnonics system

GQ Zhang, JQ You - Physical Review B, 2019 - APS
We propose to realize the pseudo-Hermiticity in a cavity magnonics system consisting of the
Kittel modes in two small yttrium iron garnet spheres coupled to a microwave cavity mode …

Topological phases in a Kitaev chain with imbalanced pairing

C Li, XZ Zhang, G Zhang, Z Song - Physical Review B, 2018 - APS
We systematically study a Kitaev chain with imbalanced pair creation and annihilation,
which is introduced by non-Hermitian pairing terms. An exact phase diagram shows that the …

Entanglement and spin squeezing in non-Hermitian phase transitions

TE Lee, F Reiter, N Moiseyev - Physical review letters, 2014 - APS
We show that non-Hermitian dynamics generate substantial entanglement in many-body
systems. We consider the non-Hermitian Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick model and show that its …

Emergent phase transitions in a cluster Ising model with dissipation

ZX Guo, XJ Yu, XD Hu, Z Li - Physical Review A, 2022 - APS
We study a cluster Ising model with non-Hermitian external field which can be exactly solved
in the language of free fermions. By investigating the second derivative of energy density …

Recognizing critical lines via entanglement in non-Hermitian systems

KD Agarwal, TK Konar, LGC Lakkaraju… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2023 - arxiv.org
The non-Hermitian model exhibits counter-intuitive phenomena which are not observed in
the Hermitian counterparts. To probe the competition between non-Hermitian and Hermitian …

Non-hermitian dynamics in the quantum zeno limit

W Kozlowski, SF Caballero-Benitez, IB Mekhov - Physical Review A, 2016 - APS
We show that weak measurement leads to unconventional quantum Zeno dynamics with
Raman-like transitions via virtual states outside the Zeno subspace. We extend this concept …

Dynamic magnetization in non-Hermitian quantum spin systems

XZ Zhang, L Jin, Z Song - Physical Review B, 2020 - APS
We report a global effect induced by the local complex field associated with the spin-
exchange interaction. High-order exceptional point up to (N+ 1)-level coalescence is created …

Crossover behavior at an exceptional point for quantum entanglement and correlation in a non-Hermitian XY spin system

C Miao, Y Li, J Wang, P Zhang, Q Li, L Hu, Y Xu… - Physical Review B, 2024 - APS
Non-Hermitian spin systems have attracted extensive interest due to their unconventional
magnetic properties, rich entanglement resources, and unusual quantum criticality …

Conventional quantum phase transition driven by a complex parameter in a non-Hermitian Ising model

C Li, G Zhang, XZ Zhang, Z Song - Physical Review A, 2014 - APS
A conventional quantum phase transition (QPT) can be accessed by varying a real
parameter at absolute zero temperature. Motivated by the discovery of the pseudo …
