Over the last decade impressive progress has been made in the theoretical understanding
of transport properties of clean, one-dimensional quantum lattice systems. Many physically …

Recent years have seen tremendous progress in the theoretical understanding of quantum
systems driven dissipatively by coupling to different baths at their edges. This was possible …

The study of open quantum systems–microscopic systems exhibiting quantum coherence
that are coupled to their environment–has become increasingly important in the past years …

We generalize the classical thermal Mpemba effect (where an initially hot system relaxes
faster to the final equilibrium state than a cold one) to open quantum systems coupled to …

An explicit matrix product ansatz is presented, in the first two orders in the (weak) coupling
parameter, for the nonequilibrium steady state of the homogeneous, nearest neighbor …

The many-body physics at quantum phase transitions shows a subtle interplay between
quantum and thermal fluctuations, emerging in the low-temperature limit. In this review, we …

We study quantum transport properties of an open Heisenberg XXZ spin 1/2 chain driven by
a pair of Lindblad jump operators satisfying a global'micro-canonical'constraint, ie …

An exact and explicit ladder-tensor-network ansatz is presented for the nonequilibrium
steady state of an anisotropic Heisenberg XXZ spin-1/2 chain which is driven far from …

We introduce a method “DMT” for approximating density operators of 1D systems that, when
combined with a standard framework for time evolution (TEBD), makes possible simulation …

We study relaxation times, also called mixing times, of quantum many-body systems
described by a Lindblad master equation. We in particular study the scaling of the spectral …
