Anomalous Enhancement of Entanglement Entropy in Nonequilibrium Steady States Driven by Zero-Temperature Reservoirs
Hideaki Hakoshima, Akira Shimizu
We investigate the size scaling of the entanglement entropy (EE) in nonequilibrium steady states (NESSs) of a one-dimensional open quantum system with a random potential. It models…

Conversion of Thermal Equilibrium States into Superpositions of Macroscopically Distinct States
Mamiko Tatsuta, Akira Shimizu
A simple procedure for obtaining superpositions of macroscopically distinct states is proposed and analyzed. We find that a thermal equilibrium state can be converted into such a s…
