Long-range quantum systems, in which the interactions decay as $1/r^{\alpha}$, are of increasing interest due to the variety of experimental set-ups in which they naturally appear. Motivated by this, we study fundamental properties of…
We investigate a solvable model for energy conserving non-equilibrium steady states. The time-reversal asymmetry of the dynamics leads to the violation of detailed balance and to ergodicity breaking, as manifested by the presence of…
We study the mixing time of a recently proposed efficiently implementable Lindbladian designed to prepare the Gibbs states in the setting of weakly interacting fermionic systems. We show that at any temperature, the Lindbladian spectral gap…

We consider quantum rotors or Ising spins in a transverse field on a $d$-dimensional lattice, with random, frustrating, short-range, exchange interactions. The quantum dynamics are associated with a finite moment of inertia for the rotors,…
We apply the $\delta$-expansion perturbation scheme to the $\lambda \phi^{4}$ self-interacting scalar field theory in 3+1 D at finite temperature. In the $\delta$-expansion the interaction term is written as $\lambda (\phi^{2})^{ 1 +…

In this paper we develop a generalized formalism for equilibrium thermodynamic systems when an information is shared between the system and the reservoir. The information results in a correction to the entropy of the system. This extension…
Semi-holography provides a formulation of dynamics in gauge theories involving both weakly self-interacting (perturbative) and strongly self-interacting (non-perturbative) degrees of freedom. These two subsectors interact via their…

A recently proposed method for the characterization and analysis of local equilibrium states in relativistic quantum field theory is applied to a simple model. Within this model states are identified which are locally (but not globally) in…
We present a construction of non-equilibrium steady states in one-dimensional quantum critical systems carrying energy and charge fluxes. This construction is based on a scattering approach within a real-time hamiltonian reservoir…
Quantum dynamics of coherent states is studied within quantum field theory using two complementary methods: by organizing the evolution as a Taylor series in elapsed time and by perturbative expansion in coupling within the…
We establish a new non-equilibrium scaling regime in the short time evolution of one-dimensional interacting open quantum systems subject to a generic heating mechanism. This dynamical regime is characterized by uncompensated phonon…
