Hierarchical time crystals
Jan Carlo Schumann, Igor Lesanovsky, Parvinder Solanki
Spontaneous symmetry breaking is one of the central organizing principles in physics. Time crystals have emerged as an exotic phase of matter, spontaneously breaking the time trans…
Quantum Synchronization of Twin Limit-Cycle Oscillators
Tobias Kehrer, Christoph Bruder, Parvinder Solanki
Quantum synchronization has been a subject of intensive research in the last decade. In this work, we propose a quantum Liénard system whose classical equivalent features two limit…
Generation of entanglement and non-stationary states via competing coherent and incoherent bosonic hopping
Parvinder Solanki, Albert Cabot, Matteo Brunelli +3
Incoherent stochastic processes added to unitary dynamics are typically deemed detrimental since they are expected to diminish quantum features such as superposition and entangleme…
Chaos in Time: A Dissipative Continuous Quasi Time Crystals
Parvinder Solanki, Fabrizio Minganti
While a generic open quantum system decays to its steady state, continuous time crystals (CTCs) develop spontaneous oscillation and never converge to a stationary state. Just as cr…
