We define correlational (von Neumann) entropy for an individual quantum state of a system whose time-independent hamiltonian contains random parameters and is treated as a member of a statistical ensemble. This entropy is representation…
The incoherent dynamical properties of open quantum systems are generically attributed to an ongoing correlation between the system and its environment. Here, we propose a novel way to assess the nature of these system-environment…
The physics of a closed quantum mechanical system is governed by its Hamiltonian. However, in most practical situations, this Hamiltonian is not precisely known, and ultimately all there is are data obtained from measurements on the system.…
The PT-symmetry breaking, consistent hamiltonian interactions in all $n\geq 4$ spacetime dimensions that can be added to an abelian BF model involving a set of scalar fields, two sorts of one-forms, and a system of two-forms are obtained by…
Structure in quantum entanglement entropy is often leveraged to focus on a small corner of the exponentially large Hilbert space and efficiently parameterize the problem of finding ground states. A typical example is the use of matrix…
We introduce new geometric objects called spectral networks. Spectral networks are networks of trajectories on Riemann surfaces obeying certain local rules. Spectral networks arise naturally in four-dimensional N=2 theories coupled to…
We study the properties of the entanglement spectrum in gapped non-interacting non-Hermitian systems, and its relation to the topological properties of the system Hamiltonian. Two different families of entanglement Hamiltonians can be…
We consider an open quantum system with Hamiltonian $H_S$ whose spectrum is given by a generalized Fibonacci sequence weakly coupled to a Boson reservoir in equilibrium at inverse temperature $\beta$. We find the generator of the reduced…

Time boundaries (TBs), temporal analogues of spatial interfaces, offer a powerful handle to engineer quantum systems. However, unlike the well-developed stationary scattering theory at spatial interfaces, a unified framework for quantum…
In this work we investigate the relation between quantum measurements and decoherence, in order to formally express the necessity of the latter for obtaining an informative output from the former. To this aim, referring to the Von Neumann…
We investigate spectral theory for a large class of one-body Stark Hamiltonians using a commutator technique. Our results include Rellich's theorem, the limiting absorption principle, radiation condition bounds and Sommerfeld's uniqueness…
The dynamics of the spin-boson Hamiltonian is considered in the stochastic approximation. The Hamiltonian describes a two-level system coupled to an environment and is widely used in physics, chemistry and the theory of quantum measurement.…

We propose an approximation scheme to describe the dynamics of the spin-boson model when the spectral density of the environment shows a peak at a characteristic frequency $\Omega$ which can be very close (or even equal) to the spin Zeeman…
Harmonic maps from Riemann surfaces arise from a conformally invariant variational problem. Therefore, on one hand, they are intimately connected with moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces, and on the other hand, because the conformal group is…
Open quantum systems are traditionally described by decomposing the total Hilbert space into a system and an external environment, linked by an explicit interaction Hamiltonian. We propose an alternative framework in which the environment…

The bulk-boundary correspondence in one dimension asserts that the physical quantities defined in the bulk and at the edge are connected, as well established in the argument for electric polarization. Recently, a spectral bulk-boundary…
