Cascading failures triggered by trivial initial events are encountered in many complex systems. It is the interaction and coupling between components of the system that causes cascading failures. We propose a simple model to simulate…

Dynamical phase transitions are defined through non-analyticities of the survival probability of an out-of-equilibrium time-evolving state at certain critical times. They ensue from zeros of the corresponding survival amplitude. By…

We analyze a $XXZ$ spin-1/2 chain which is driven dissipatively at its boundaries. The dissipative driving is modelled by Lindblad jump operators which only act on both boundary spins. In the limit of large dissipation, we find that the…
