In few-qubit systems, the quantum Zeno effect arises when measurement occurs sufficiently frequently that the spins are unable to relax between measurements. This can compete with Hamiltonian terms, resulting in interesting relaxation…
The quantum Zeno and anti-Zeno effects describe how frequent measurements can either suppress or accelerate quantum dynamics. While extensively studied in various platforms, their manifestation in dark-state dynamics remains largely…
Frequent Measurements on an unstable particle located at observable initial state freeze the particle on this state, known as quantum Zeno effect [1-14]. Measurements on an observable subspace further open the prelude of quantum Zeno…

We exhibit a specific implementation of the creation of geometrical phase through the state-space evolution generated by the dynamic quantum Zeno effect. That is, a system is guided through a closed loop in Hilbert space by means a sequence…
In open quantum systems, the quantum Zeno effect consists in frequent applications of a given quantum operation, e.g.~a measurement, used to restrict the time evolution (due e.g.~to decoherence) to states that are invariant under the…
We investigate the effect of repeated measurement for quantum dynamics of the suppressed systems which classical counterparts exhibit chaos. The essential feature of such systems is the quantum localization phenomena strongly limiting…
We consider a continuous measurement of a two-level system (double-dot) by weakly coupled detector (tunnel point contact nearby). While usual treatment leads to the gradual system decoherence due to the measurement, we show that the…
We address the problem of assessing the coherent character of physical evolution. We take the quantum Zeno effect (QZE) as a characteristic trait of quantum dynamics, and derive relations among transfer rates as a function of the strength…
Effective non-Hermitian Hamiltonians describing decaying systems are derived and analyzed in connection with the occurrence of possible Hilbert space partitioning, resulting in a confinement of the dynamics. In some cases, this fact can be…
In studies of the quantum Zeno and anti-Zeno effects, it is usual to consider rapid projective measurements with equal time intervals being performed on the system to check whether or not the system is in the initial state. These projective…
We build a discrete model that simulates the ubiquitous competition between the free internal evolution of a two-level system and the decoherence induced by the interaction with its surrounding environment. It is aimed at being as universal…

Repetitive measurements can cause freezing of dynamics of a quantum state, which is known as quantum Zeno effect. We consider an interacting one-dimensional fermionic system and study the fate of the many-body quantum Zeno transition if the…
Projective measurements are an essential element of quantum mechanics. In most cases, they cause an irreversible change of the quantum system on which they act. However, measurements can also be used to stabilize quantum states from decay…
