Locality versus Fock-space structure in East-type models
Achilleas Lazarides
Local kinetic constraints in quantum many-body systems can generate slow dynamics or complete many-body localisation. Here we focus on a modification of the quantum East model: Ins…
Thermodynamics of Coherence-Selective Quantum Reset Protocols
Jishad Kumar, Achilleas Lazarides, Tapio Ala-Nissila
We develop an exact theory of coherence-selective stroboscopic resetting for quadratic open quantum systems within the single-particle density-matrix formalism. We focus on the sur…
Coherence-Controlled Quantum Zeno Dynamics from Exact Reset Maps
Jishad Kumar, Achilleas Lazarides, Tapio Ala-Nissila
We develop an exact framework for quantum Zeno and anti-Zeno dynamics in a broad class of open systems, whose microscopic Hamiltonians are quadratic in bosonic or fermionic operato…
Interaction-Enabled Hartree Fixed Points in Fermionic Resetting Dynamics
Jishad Kumar, Achilleas Lazarides, Tapio Ala-Nissila
In resetting dynamics, a system is repeatedly coupled to and decoupled from ancillary degrees of freedom that are reinitialized between interactions. This provides a versatile rout…
Ground state and persistent oscillations in the quantum East model
Adway Kumar Das, Achilleas Lazarides
For the 1D quantum East model with open boundaries, we show that in the limit , the ground state is accurately captured by a simple spin-coherent product state. We f…
Microscopic Dynamics of False Vacuum Decay in the D Quantum Ising Model
Umberto Borla, Achilleas Lazarides, Christian Groà +1
False vacuum decay, which is understood to happen through bubble nucleation, is a prominent phenomenon relevant to elementary particle physics and early-universe cosmology. Underst…
