Fragility of Time-Reversal Symmetry Protected Topological Phases

Max McGinley, Nigel R. Cooper

The second law of thermodynamics points to the existence of an `arrow of time', along which entropy only increases. This arises despite the time-reversal symmetry (TRS) of the micr…

Tenfold Way for Quadratic Lindbladians

Simon Lieu, Max McGinley, Nigel R. Cooper

We uncover a topological classification applicable to open fermionic systems governed by a general class of Lindblad master equations. These `quadratic Lindbladians' can be capture…

Interacting Symmetry-Protected Topological Phases Out of Equilibrium

Max McGinley, Nigel R. Cooper

The topological features of quantum many-body wave functions are known to have profound consequences for the physics of ground-states and their low-energy excitations. We describe…

Classification of topological insulators and superconductors out of equilibrium

Max McGinley, Nigel R. Cooper

We establish the existence of a topological classification of many-particle quantum systems undergoing unitary time evolution. The classification naturally inherits phenomenology f…

Slow growth of out-of-time-order correlators and entanglement in integrable disordered systems

Max McGinley, Andreas Nunnenkamp, Johannes Knolle

We investigate how information spreads in three paradigmatic one-dimensional models with spatial disorder. The models we consider are unitarily related to a system of free fermions…

Topology of one dimensional quantum systems out of equilibrium

Max McGinley, Nigel R. Cooper

We study the topological properties of one dimensional systems undergoing unitary time evolution. We show that symmetries possessed both by the initial wavefunction and by the Hami…
