Exploring Dynamical Quantum Phase Transitions via the Dynamical Phase Accumulated at an Equilibrium Critical Point

Han-Chuan Kou, Peng Li, Zhi-Han Zhang +1

We investigate dynamical quantum phase transitions (DQPTs) generated by a two-step linear quench with a finite waiting time at the equilibrium critical point. The waiting stage lea…

Interference of critical dynamics associated with zero modes

Zhi-Han Zhang, Han-Chuan Kou, Peng Li

We study the interference of critical dynamics associated with zero modes (ICDZM) in the generalized Creutz ladders using closed quench paths that pass through two critical points…

Optimized adiabatic-impulse protocol preserving Kibble-Zurek scaling with attenuated anti-Kibble-Zurek behavior

Han-Chuan Kou, Zhi-Han Zhang, Xin-Hui Wu +3

We propose an optimized adiabatic-impulse (OAI) protocol that substantially reduces the evolution time for crossing a quantum phase transition while preserving Kibble-Zurek (KZ) sc…

Critical dynamics and its interferometry in the one-dimensional p-wave-paired Aubry-André-Harper model

Zhi-Han Zhang, Han-Chuan Kou, Peng Li

In this work, we focus on the critical dynamics of the one-dimensional quasiperiodic p-wave-paired Aubry-André-Harper model, which exhibits a transition point between the gapped cr…

Kibble-Zurek scaling immune to anti-Kibble-Zurek behavior in driven open systems at the limit of loss difference

Han-Chuan Kou, Zhi-Han Zhang, Peng Li

We investigate the dissipative quench dynamics in a family of two-band fermionic systems by linearly ramping the staggered on-site energy. In the Lindblad formalism, we present an…

Varying quench dynamics in the transverse Ising chain: the Kibble-Zurek, saturated, and pre-saturated regimes

Han-Chuan Kou, Peng Li

According to the Kibble-Zurek mechanism, there is a universal power-law relationship between the defect density and the quench rate during a slow linear quench through a critical p…

Interferometry based on quantum Kibble-Zurek mechanism

Han-Chuan Kou, Peng Li

We propose an interferometry within the framework of quantum Kibble-Zurek mechanism by exemplifying two prototypical quench protocols, namely the round-trip and quarter-turn ones,…
