Strong-to-Weak Symmetry Breaking in Open Quantum Systems: From Discrete Particles to Continuum Hydrodynamics
Jacob Hauser, Kaixiang Su, Hyunsoo Ha +6
We explore the onset of spontaneous strong-to-weak symmetry breaking (SW-SSB) under U(1)-symmetric (i.e., charge-conserving) open-system dynamics. We define this phenomenon for qua…

Information dynamics and symmetry breaking in generic monitored -symmetric open quantum systems
Jacob Hauser, Ali Lavasani, Sagar Vijay +1
We investigate the steady-state phases of generic -symmetric monitored, open quantum dynamics. We describe the phases systematically in terms of both information-theo…
