Energetic channels in finite many-body quantum charging

Dara Murphy, George Mihailescu, Anne Matthies +2

We examine how a finite many-body system can function as an effective charger for a single-qubit quantum battery, using the Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick model as a paradigmatic setting. As…

Charging and Discharging a Hubbard-Holstein Quantum Battery: Specific Mechanisms and General Insights

Emil Östberg, Arvid Steen, Najmeh Abiri +2

A Hubbard-Holstein dimer functions as a correlation-driven quantum battery, with ergotropy robustly stored, under some conditions, even in the presence of dissipation. We find that…

Ergotopy transport in a one dimensional spin chain

Dara Murphy, Anthony Kiely, Irene D'Amico +1

We examine the transport of useful energy, i.e. extractable work as quantified by the ergotropy, along a spin chain with tuneable exchange couplings between the sites. We focus on,…

Single-site diagonal quantities capture off-diagonal long-range order

M. Sanino, I. D'Amico, V. V. França +1

Quantum phase transitions are typically marked by changes in quantum correlations across various spatial scales within the system. A key challenge lies in the fact that experimenta…

Metric-space approach for distinguishing quantum phase transitions in spin-imbalanced systems

T. de Picoli, I. D' Amico, V. V. França

Metric spaces are characterized by distances between pairs of elements. Systems that are physically similar are expected to present smaller distances (between their densities, wave…
