Accuracy of the Kramers approximate formula for the thermal decay rate of the metastable state is studied for the two-dimensional potential pocket. This is done by the comparison with the quasistationary rate resulting from the dynamical…

We discuss applications of a recently developed method for model reduction based on linear response theory of weakly coupled dynamical systems. We apply the weak coupling method to simple stochastic differential equations with slow and fast…

Thermal states are thermal with respect to a fixed Hamiltonian. How much information about this Hamiltonian can we ``bootstrap'' from the subsystems of a thermal state? We attack the problem by positioning it as a subspecies of the quantum…

The dynamic relaxation process for the (2+1)--dimensional SU(2) lattice gauge theory at critical temperature is investigated with Monte Carlo methods. The critical initial increase of the Polyakov loop is observed. The dynamic exponents…

We show that the low temperature ($T<0.5$ K) time dependent non-exponential energy relaxation of quasi-one-dimensional (quasi-1D) compounds strongly differ according to the nature of their modulated ground state. For incommensurate ground…

Magnetic relaxation in a type-II superconductor is simulated for a range of temperatures (T) in a simple model of 2D Josephson junction array (JJA) with finite screening. The high-T phase, that is characterised by a single time scale…

We consider a particle in the harmonic approximation coupled linearly to an environment. modeled by an infinite set of harmonic oscillators. The system (particle--environment) is considered in a cavity at thermal equilibrium. We employ the…

We study the energy-density dynamics at finite momentum of the two-dimensional Kitaev spin-model on the honeycomb lattice. Due to fractionalization of magnetic moments, the energy relaxation occurs through mobile Majorana matter, coupled to…

This pedagogical article is aimed to the beginning graduate students interested in broad field of frustrated magnetism. We introduce and present some of the exact results obtained in Kitaev model. The Kitaev model embodies an unusual two…

The complete phase diagram of the Kitaev model with a magnetic field remains elusive, as do the experimental results in the candidate material {\alpha}-RuCl3. Here, we study the Kitaev model on a one-dimensional ladder setting within the…

We compute the degeneracy of energy levels in the Kitaev quantum double model for any discrete group $G$ on any planar graph forming the skeleton of a closed orientable surface of arbitrary genus. The derivation is based on the fusion rules…

We determine the time evolution of fluctuations of the Polyakov loop after a quench into the deconfined phase of SU(3) gauge theory from a simple classical relativistic Lagrangian. We compare the structure factors, which indicate spinodal…

A weak-localization effect has been studied in macroscopically inhomogeneous 2D system. It is shown, that although the real phase breaking length tends to infinity when the temperature tends to zero, such a system can reveal a saturated…

A new global analytical model of the heat dissipation process that occurs in passively-cooled embedded systems is introduced, and we explicit under what circumstances the traditional assumption that exponential cooling laws apply in such…

We investigate the finite-temperature phase diagram of the classical Kitaev-Heisenberg model on the hexagonal lattice. Due to the anisotropy introduced by the Kitaev interaction, the model is magnetically ordered at low temperatures for all…

Understanding the evolution towards thermal equilibrium of an isolated quantum system is at the foundation of statistical mechanics and a subject of interest in such diverse areas as cold atom physics or the quantum mechanics of black…

Isolated quantum systems typically approach thermal equilibrium as described by the Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis (ETH). Going beyond this involves either higher order correlators (full thermalization) or the formation of state…

We demonstrate that quantum mechanics entails a fundamental lower bound on the thermalization time $\tau$ of any system. At finite temperature, we show that $\tau$ is bounded by half the Planckian dissipation time, $\tau \geq \tau_{\rm…

Understanding the behaviour of topologically ordered lattice systems at finite temperature is a way of assessing their potential as fault-tolerant quantum memories. We compute the natural extension of the topological entanglement entropy…

We investigate the sensing performance of a single-qubit quantum thermometer within a non-Markovian dynamical framework. By employing an exactly numerical hierarchical equations of the motion method, we go beyond traditional paradigms of…
