Zero temperature phase transitions not only occur in the bulk of quantum systems, but also at boundaries or impurities. We review recent work on quantum phase transitions in impurity models that are generalizations of the standard Kondo…

Coupling a quantum particle to a fermionic bath suppresses the particle's amplitude to tunnel, even at zero temperature. While this effect can generally be neglected for gapped baths -- a key feature for superconducting qubits -- , it is…
