In the framework of Lindblad theory for open quantum systems, we calculate the entropy of a damped quantum harmonic oscillator which is initially in a quasi-free state. The maximally predictable states are identified as those states…
A free fermion without doubler is formulated on 1+D dimensional discrete Minkowski space-time. The action is not hermitian but causes no harm. In 1+3 dimensional massless case the equation describes a single species of Dirac particle in the…
This work is a contribution to the understanding of the question of stability of Perfectly Matched Layers (PMLs) in corners, at continuous and discrete levels. First, stability results are presented for the Cartesian PMLs associated to a…
The one-dimensional totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP) with $N$ particles on a periodic lattice of $L$ sites is an interacting particle system with hopping rates breaking detailed balance. The total time-integrated current…
Entanglement between the constituents of a quantum system is an essential resource in the implementation of many quantum processes and algorithms. Indeed, universal quantum computation is possible by measuring individual qubits comprising…
A new class of cost functionals for optimal control of quantum systems which produces controls which are sparse in frequency and smooth in time is proposed. This is achieved by penalizing a suitable time-frequency representation of the…
Off-equilibrium dynamics of a three-dimensional lattice model with nearest- and next nearest-neighbors exclusions is studied. At equilibrium, the model undergoes a first-order fluid-solid transition. Non-equilibrium filling, through random…
We present an efficient, nearly optimal quantum algorithm for solving linear matrix differential equations, with applications to the simulation of open quantum systems and beyond. For unitary or dissipative dynamics, the algorithm computes…
Solutions to the interval observation problem for delayed impulsive and switched systems with $L_1$-performance are provided. The approach is based on first obtaining stability and $L_1/\ell_1$-to-$L_1/\ell_1$ performance analysis…
This paper investigates the quantitative homogenization of first-order ODEs. For single-scale scalar ODEs, we obtain a sharp $O(\varepsilon)$ convergence rate and characterize the effective constant. In the multi-scale setting, our results…
We study transport and relaxation of spinless fermions with long-range Coulomb interactions at high temperatures through numerical simulations of out-of-equilibrium dynamics. We find that the transport and relaxation are continuously…
We study a balanced two-component system of ultracold fermions in one dimension with attractive interactions and subject to a spin-dependent optical lattice potential of opposite sign for the two components. We find states with different…
This paper investigates the long time dynamics of interacting particle systems subject to singular interactions. We consider a microscopic system of $N$ interacting point particles, where the time evolution of the joint distribution…
We propose a relaxation time approximation for the description of the dynamics of strongly excited fermion systems. Our approach is based on time-dependent density functional theory at the level of the local density approximation. This…
For quantum matter, eigenstate entanglement entropies obey an area law or log-area law at low energies and small subsystem sizes and cross over to volume laws for high energies and large subsystems. This transition is captured by crossover…
Based on quasi-stationary distribution ideas, a general finite size scaling theory is proposed for discontinuous nonequilibrium phase transitions into absorbing states. Analogously to the equilibrium case, we show that quantities such as,…
It is shown that discrete-time quantum walks can be used to digitize, i.e., to time discretize fermionic models of continuous-time lattice gauge theory. The resulting discrete-time dynamics is thus not only manifestly unitary, but also…
It has been proposed to investigate the equilibration properties of a small isolated quantum system by means of the matrix of asymptotic transition probabilities in some preferential basis. The trace $T$ of this matrix measures the degree…
We measure the relaxation time of a square lattice Ising ferromagnet that is quenched to zero-temperature from supercritical initial conditions. We reveal an anomalous and seemingly overlooked timescale associated with the relaxation to…
It is common practice in molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo computer simulations to run multiple, separately-initialized simulations in order to improve the sampling of independent microstates. Here we examine the utility of an extreme case…
