Zeroth Law in Quantum Thermodynamics at Strong Coupling: `in Equilibrium', not `Equal Temperature'
Jen-Tsung Hsiang, Bei-Lok Hu
The zeroth law of thermodynamics involves a transitivity relation (pairwise between three objects) expressed either in terms of `equal temperature' (ET), or `in equilibrium' (EQ) c…
Temperature Dependent Energy Diffusion in Chaotic Spin Chains
Cristian Zanoci, Brian Swingle
We study the temperature dependence of energy diffusion in two chaotic gapped quantum spin chains, a tilted-field Ising model and an XZ model, using an open system approach. We int…
Nonequilibrium Quantum Free Energy and Effective Temperature, Generating Functional and Influence Action
Jen-Tsung Hsiang, B. L. Hu
A definition of nonequilibrium free energy $\mathcal{F}_{\textsc{s}}$ is proposed for dynamical Gaussian quantum open systems strongly coupled to a heat bath and a formal derivatio…
Intrinsic Time-reversal-invariant Topological Superconductivity in Thin Films of Iron-based Superconductors
Rui-Xing Zhang, S. Das Sarma
We establish quasi-two-dimensional thin films of iron-based superconductors (FeSCs) as a new high-temperature platform for hosting intrinsic time-reversal-invariant helical topolog…
Hydrodynamic sound and plasmons in three dimensions
Shao-Kai Jian, Sankar Das Sarma
In a recent paper by Lucas and Das Sarma [Physical Review B 97, 115449 (2018)], a solvable model of collective modes in 2D metals was considered in the hydrodynamic regime. In the…
Marginally localized edges of time-reversal symmetric topological superconductors
Yang-Zhi Chou, Rahul M. Nandkishore
We demonstrate that the one-dimensional helical Majorana edges of two-dimensional time-reversal symmetric topological superconductors (class DIII) can become gapless and insulating…
