Phase-space quantum distorted stability pattern for Aubry-André-Harper dynamics
arXiv:2504.11036
Abstract
Instability features associated to topological quantum domains which emerge from the Weyl-Wigner (WW) quantum phase-space description of Gaussian ensembles driven by Aubry-André-Harper (AAH) Hamiltonians are investigated. Hyperbolic equilibrium and stability patterns are then identified and classified according to the associated (nonlinear) AAH Hamiltonian parameters. Besides providing the tools for quantifying the information content of AAH systems, the Wigner flow patterns here discussed suggest a systematic procedure for identifying the role of quantum fluctuations over equilibrium and stability, in a framework which can be straightforwardly extended to describe the evolution of similar/modified AAH systems.
