Experimental validation of the Kibble-Zurek Mechanism on a Digital Quantum Computer
Santiago Higuera-Quintero, Ferney J. Rodríguez, Luis Quiroga +1
The Kibble-Zurek mechanism (KZM) captures the essential physics of nonequilibrium quantum phase transitions with symmetry breaking. KZM predicts a universal scaling power law for t…

Role of boundary conditions in the full counting statistics of topological defects after crossing a continuous phase transition
Fernando J. Gómez-Ruiz, David Subires, Adolfo del Campo
In a scenario of spontaneous symmetry breaking in finite time, topological defects are generated at a density that scale with the driving time according to the Kibble-Zurek mechani…
