A quantum phase of matter can be understood from the symmetry of the system's Hamiltonian. The system symmetry along the time axis has been proposed to show a new phase of matter referred as discrete-time crystals (DTCs). A DTC is a quantum…
Stochastic resonance is a phenomenon where the response signal to external driving is enhanced by environment noise. In quantum regime, the effect of environment is often intrinsically non-Markovian. Due to the combination of such…
Dissipative phase transitions in quantum systems have been largely studied under the so-called Markovian approximation, where the environments to which the systems are coupled are memoryless. Here, we present a generalization of the…
