We study the dissipative dynamics of a class of interacting ``gamma-matrix'' spin models coupled to a Markovian environment. For spins on an arbitrary graph, we construct a Lindbladian that maps to a non-Hermitian model of free Majorana…
An expansion in inverse spin anisotropy, which enables us to study the behaviour of discrete spin models as the spins soften, is developed. In particular we focus on models, such as the chiral clock model and the $p$-state clock model with…

Synthetic spin-orbit coupling in cold atoms couples the pseudo-spin and spatial degrees of freedom, and therefore the inherent spin symmetry of the system plays an important role. In systems of two pseudo-spin degrees, two particles contain…
W. Apel and Yu.A. Bychkov have recently considered the spin relaxation in a 2D quantum Hall system for the filling factor close to unity [PRL v.82, 3324 (1999)]. The authors considered only one spin flip mechanism (direct spin-phonon…

In the mean field limit, isolated gravitational systems often evolve towards a steady state through a violent relaxation phase. One question is to understand the nature of this relaxation phase, in particular the role of radial…
