We study the thermodynamical properties of the quantum kicked rotator, coarsened by an external fluctuation with a weak intensity D, by means of the Tsallis entropy with a changing entropic index q. The genuine entropic index, corresponding…
We focus our attention on dynamical processes characterized by an entropic index Q<1. According to the probabilistic arguments of Tsallis and Bukman [C.Tsallis, D.J. Bukman, Phys. Rev. E 54,R2197 (1996)] these processes are subdiffusional…
The notion of the thermodynamic entropy in the context of quantum mechanics is a controversial topic. While there were proposals to refer von Neumann entropy as the thermodynamic entropy, it has it's own limitations. The observational…
We study the many-body localization aspects of single-particle mobility edges in fermionic systems. We investigate incommensurate lattices and random disorder Anderson models. Many-body localization and quantum nonergodic properties are…
We adapt the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy to the non-extensive perspective recently advocated by Tsallis. The resulting expression is an average on the invariant distribution, which should be used to detect the genuine entropic index Q. We…
Symbolic sequences with long-range correlations are expected to result in a slow regression to a steady state of entropy increase. However, we prove that also in this case a fast transition to a constant rate of entropy increase can be…
According to the second law of thermodynamics the total entropy of a system is increased during almost any dynamical process. The positivity of the specific heat implies that the entropy increase is associated with heating. This is…
We study the statistical properties of a single two-level system (qubit) subject to repetitive ancilla-based measurements. This setup is a fundamental minimal model for exploring the intricate interplay between the unitary dynamics of the…
Transitions from delocalized to localized eigenstates have been extensively studied in both quadratic and interacting models. The delocalized regime typically exhibits diffusion and quantum chaos, and its properties comply with the random…
We introduce an investigation about M dimers through half-filled two-site Hubbard model, that is, with two electrons. We utilize the third version of nonextensive statistical mechanics as tool for cal-culating thermodynamical and magnetic…
Comparison of the thermodynamic entropy with Boltzmann's principle shows that under conditions of constant volume the total number of arrangements in simple thermodynamic systems with temperature-independent heat capacities is TC/k. A…
Non-equilibrium dynamics of many-body quantum systems under the effect of measurement protocols is attracting an increasing amount of attention. It has been recently revealed that measurements may induce an abrupt change in the scaling-law…
The Anderson localization transition is one of the most well studied examples of a zero temperature quantum phase transition. On the other hand, many open questions remain about the phenomenology of disordered systems driven far out of…
Statistical formulations of thermodynamic entropy, such as those by Boltzmann and Gibbs, were originally developed for classical systems and are well understood in that context. However, the foundational aspects of quantum statistical…
Many-body localization is a striking mechanism that prevents interacting quantum systems from thermalizing. The absence of thermalization behaviour manifests itself, for example, in a remanence of local particle number configurations, a…
We investigate localization transitions and mobility edge phenomena in one-dimensional quasiperiodic lattice models using an information theoretic framework based on the Tsallis entropy of single particle eigenstates.We employ the Tsallis…
It is typically assumed that disorder is essential to realize Anderson localization. Recently, a number of proposals have suggested that an interacting, translation invariant system can also exhibit localization. We examine these claims in…
Quantum thermodynamics has emerged as a central field for understanding how energy conversion processes occur in microscopic systems. In these systems, effects such as coherence, entanglement, and non-Markovianity play key roles. In this…
For a quantum state undergoing unitary Schr\"odinger time evolution, the von Neumann entropy is constant. Yet the second law of thermodynamics, and our experience, show that entropy increases with time. Ingarden introduced the quantum…
We propose to use the effect of measurements instead of their number to study the time evolution of quantum systems under monitoring. This time redefinition acts like a microscope which blows up the inner details of seemingly instantaneous…
