Imaginary gap-closed points and dynamics in a class of dissipative systems
arXiv:2403.06224 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.109.214311
Abstract
We investigate imaginary gap-closed (IGC) points and their associated dynamics in dissipative systems. In a general non-Hermitian model, we derive the equation governing the IGC points of the energy spectrum, establishing that these points are only determined by the Hermitian part of the Hamiltonian. Focusing on a class of one-dimensional dissipative chains, we explore quantum walks across different scenarios and various parameters, showing that IGC points induce a power-law decay scaling in bulk loss probability and trigger a boundary phenomenon referred to as "edge burst". This observation underscores the crucial role of IGC points under periodic boundary conditions (PBCs) in shaping quantum walk dynamics. Finally, we demonstrate that the damping matrices of these dissipative chains under PBCs possess Liouvillian gapless points, implying an algebraic convergence towards the steady state in long-time dynamics.
