A non-equilibrium quantum many-body Rydberg atom engine
Federico Carollo, Filippo M. Gambetta, Kay Brandner +2
The standard approach to quantum engines is based on equilibrium systems and on thermodynamic transformations between Gibbs states. However, non-equilibrium quantum systems offer e…
Building continuous time crystals from rare events
R. Hurtado-Gutiérrez, F. Carollo, C. Pérez-Espigares +1
Symmetry-breaking dynamical phase transitions (DPTs) abound in the fluctuations of nonequilibrium systems. Here we show that the spectral features of a particular class of DPTs exh…
Trajectory phase transitions in non-interacting spin systems
Loredana M. Vasiloiu, Tom H. E. Oakes, Federico Carollo +1
We show that a collection of independent Ising spins evolving stochastically can display surprisingly large fluctuations towards ordered behaviour, as quantified by certain types o…
Entanglement statistics in Markovian open quantum systems: a matter of mutation and selection
Federico Carollo, Carlos Pérez-Espigares
Controlling dynamical fluctuations in open quantum systems is essential both for our comprehension of quantum nonequilibrium behaviour and for its possible application in near-term…
Witnessing non-classicality through large deviations in quantum optics
Dario Cilluffo, Giuseppe Buonaiuto, Salvatore Lorenzo +4
Non-classical correlations in quantum optics as resources for quantum computation are important in the quest for highly-specialized quantum devices. The standard way to investigate…
Numerical Simulation of Critical Dissipative Non-Equilibrium Quantum Systems with an Absorbing State
Edward Gillman, Federico Carollo, Igor Lesanovsky
The simulation of out-of-equilibrium dissipative quantum many body systems is a problem of fundamental interest to a number of fields in physics, ranging from condensed matter to c…
Classical Stochastic Discrete Time Crystals
F. M. Gambetta, F. Carollo, A. Lazarides +2
We describe a possible general and simple paradigm in a classical thermal setting for discrete time crystals (DTCs), systems with stable dynamics which is subharmonic to the drivin…
Dynamics of strongly coupled disordered dissipative spin-boson systems
Eliana Fiorelli, Pietro Rotondo, Federico Carollo +2
Spin-boson Hamiltonians are an effective description for numerous quantum many-body systems such as atoms coupled to cavity modes, quantum electrodynamics in circuits and trapped i…
Quantum contact process
Federico Carollo, Edward Gillman, Hendrik Weimer +1
The contact process is a paradigmatic classical stochastic system displaying critical behavior even in one dimension. It features a non-equilibrium phase transition into an absorbi…
Strong zero modes in a class of generalised Ising spin ladders with plaquette interactions
Loredana M. Vasiloiu, Federico Carollo, Matteo Marcuzzi +1
We study a class of spin- quantum ladder models with generalised plaquette interactions in the presence of a transverse field. We show that in certain parameter regimes these…
