We study a quantum trimer of coupled two-level systems beyond the single-excitation sector, where the coherent coupling constants are ornamented by a complex phase. Accounting for losses and gain in an open quantum systems approach, we show…
We studied parity-time (PT) symmetric trimer systems that feature open and closed boundaries. The exceptional point is three-state coalescence at zero energy because of chiral symmetry in the open trimer; however, two-state coalescence…

Chiral symmetry is an important aspect of QCD. Modelling this via the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model, we construct a complete relativistic transport theory for quarks and mesons. The collision integral is analysed in a systematic 1/N_c…
An intersection between one-dimensional chiral acts as a topological current splitter. We find that the splitting of a chiral zero-line mode obeys very simple, yet highly counterintuitive, partition laws which relate current paths to the…

We provide a systematic analysis of a prototypical nonlinear oscillator system respecting PT-symmetry i.e., one of them has gain and the other an equal and opposite amount of loss. Starting from the linear limit of the system, we extend…

Given the intrinsic nonequilibrium nature of high-energy collisions the investigation of the dynamical properties of transport phenomena is important. The study of the real-time behavior of various conductivities and susceptibilities help…
We study theoretically the full distribution of transferred charge in a tunnel junction (or quantum point contact) coupled to a nanomechanical oscillator, as well as the conditional evolution of the oscillator. Even if the oscillator is…
Magnetic systems with frustration often have large classical degeneracy. We show that their low-energy physics can be understood as dynamics within the space of classical ground states. We demonstrate this mapping in a family of quantum…
