We study the time it takes for all states of a finite quantum system to return simultaneously to their original configuration. In particular, we define the recurrence time for a quantum system to be the time at which all time-evolved states…

Generic quantum systems --as much as their classical counterparts-- pass arbitrarily close to their initial state after sufficiently long time. Here we provide an essentially exact computation of such recurrence times for generic…

We introduce a novel time-energy uncertainty relation within the context of restarts in monitored quantum dynamics. Initially, we investigate the concept of ``first hitting time'' in quantum systems using an IBM quantum computer and a…

The recurrence time is the time a process first returns to its initial state. Using quantum walks on a graph, the recurrence time is defined through stroboscopic monitoring of the arrival of the particle to a node of the system. When the…

Even though the evolution of an isolated quantum system is unitary, the complexity of interacting many-body systems prevents the observation of recurrences of quantum states for all but the smallest systems. For large systems one can not…

Observables of out-of-equilibrium quantum many-body systems display complex temporal behavior that encodes the underlying physical mechanisms but typically resists straightforward interpretations. We introduce recurrence analysis - a…

In this paper by using geometric techniques, we provide upper bounds for the Poincar\'e recurrence time of a quantum mixed state with discrete spectrum of energies. In the case of discrete but finite spectrum we obtain two type of upper…

The quantum form of the Poincar\'e recurrence theorem stipulates that a system with a time-independent Hamiltonian and discrete energy levels returns arbitrarily close to its initial state in a finite time. Qubit systems, being highly…

We investigate the quantum recurrence phenomena in periodically driven systems. We calculate the classical period and the quantum recurrence time and develop their interdependence. We further predict the behavior of the recurrence phenomena…

The Poincar\'e recurrence theorem shows that conservative systems in a bounded region of phase space eventually return arbitrarily close to their initial state after a finite amount of time. An analogous behavior occurs in certain quantum…

How long does it take a quantum particle to return to its origin? As shown previously under repeated projective measurements aimed to detect the return, the closed cycle yields a geometrical phase which shows that the average first detected…

Periodically-driven systems are ubiquitous in science and technology. In quantum dynamics, even a small number of periodically-driven spins leads to complicated dynamics. Hence, it is of interest to understand what constraints such dynamics…

The expected return time to the original state is a key concept characterizing systems obeying both classical or quantum dynamics. We consider iterated open quantum dynamical systems in finite dimensional Hilbert spaces, a broad class of…

We show that the dynamics of generic quantum systems concentrate around their equilibrium value when measuring at arbitrary times. This means that the probability of finding them away from equilibrium is exponentially suppressed, with a…
