quantum phase transitions and non-equilibrium dissipative phase transitions. After a …

Geometry and non-adiabatic response in quantum and classical systems

M Kolodrubetz, D Sels, P Mehta, A Polkovnikov - Physics Reports, 2017 - Elsevier
In these lecture notes, partly based on a course taught at the Karpacz Winter School in
March 2014, we explore the close connections between non-adiabatic response of a system …

Dynamical obstruction to localization in a disordered spin chain

D Sels, A Polkovnikov - Physical Review E, 2021 - APS
We analyze a one-dimensional XXZ spin chain in a disordered magnetic field. As the main
probes of the system's behavior, we use the sensitivity of eigenstates to adiabatic …

Complexity for conformal field theories in general dimensions

N Chagnet, S Chapman, J de Boer, C Zukowski - Physical review letters, 2022 - APS
We study circuit complexity for conformal field theory states in an arbitrary number of
dimensions. Our circuits start from a primary state and move along a unitary representation …

On quantumness in multi-parameter quantum estimation

A Carollo, B Spagnolo, AA Dubkov… - Journal of Statistical …, 2019 - iopscience.iop.org
In this article we derive a measure of quantumness in quantum multi-parameter estimation
problems. We can show that the ratio between the mean Uhlmann curvature and the Fisher …

Energy dynamics, heat production and heat–work conversion with qubits: toward the development of quantum machines

L Arrachea - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
We present an overview of recent advances in the study of energy dynamics and
mechanisms for energy conversion in qubit systems with special focus on realizations in …

Geometry and response of Lindbladians

VV Albert, B Bradlyn, M Fraas, L Jiang - Physical Review X, 2016 - APS
Markovian reservoir engineering, in which time evolution of a quantum system is governed
by a Lindblad master equation, is a powerful technique in studies of quantum phases of …

Experimental measurement of the quantum metric tensor and related topological phase transition with a superconducting qubit

X Tan, DW Zhang, Z Yang, J Chu, YQ Zhu, D Li… - Physical review …, 2019 - APS
A Berry curvature is an imaginary component of the quantum geometric tensor (QGT) and is
well studied in many branches of modern physics; however, the quantum metric as a real …

Kähler geometry and Chern insulators: Relations between topology and the quantum metric

B Mera, T Ozawa - Physical Review B, 2021 - APS
We study Chern insulators from the point of view of Kähler geometry, ie, the geometry of
smooth manifolds equipped with a compatible triple consisting of a symplectic form, an …

Universality in the onset of quantum chaos in many-body systems

T LeBlond, D Sels, A Polkovnikov, M Rigol - Physical Review B, 2021 - APS
We show that the onset of quantum chaos at infinite temperature in two many-body one-
dimensional lattice models, the perturbed spin-1/2 XXZ and Anderson models, is …
