Quantum theory provides an extensive framework for the description of the equilibrium
properties of quantum matter. Yet experiments in quantum simulators have now opened up …

Direct observation of dynamical quantum phase transitions in an interacting many-body system

P Jurcevic, H Shen, P Hauke, C Maier, T Brydges… - Physical review …, 2017 - APS
The theory of phase transitions represents a central concept for the characterization of
equilibrium matter. In this work we study experimentally an extension of this theory to the …

Dynamical quantum phase transitions in sachdev-ye-kitaev lindbladians

K Kawabata, A Kulkarni, J Li, T Numasawa, S Ryu - Physical Review B, 2023 - APS
We study the open quantum dynamics of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model described by

Dynamical phase diagram of quantum spin chains with long-range interactions

JC Halimeh, V Zauner-Stauber - Physical Review B, 2017 - APS
Using an infinite matrix product state (iMPS) technique based on the time-dependent
variational principle (TDVP), we study two major types of dynamical phase transitions (DPT) …

Experimental observation of equilibrium and dynamical quantum phase transitions via out-of-time-ordered correlators

X Nie, BB Wei, X Chen, Z Zhang, X Zhao, C Qiu… - Physical Review Letters, 2020 - APS
The out-of-time-ordered correlators (OTOC), a fundamental concept for quantifying quantum
information scrambling, has recently been suggested to be an order parameter to …

Unquenched—a memoir on non-equilibrium dynamics of quantum many-body systems: honoring Amit Dutta

(FDQFTs) in the one-dimensional p-wave superconductor with a time-driven pairing phase …

Anomalous dynamical phase in quantum spin chains with long-range interactions

I Homrighausen, NO Abeling, V Zauner-Stauber… - Physical Review B, 2017 - APS
The existence or absence of nonanalytic cusps in the Loschmidt-echo return rate is
traditionally employed to distinguish between a regular dynamical phase (regular cusps) …

Mixed state dynamical quantum phase transitions

U Bhattacharya, S Bandyopadhyay, A Dutta - Physical Review B, 2017 - APS
Preparing an integrable system in a mixed state described by a thermal density matrix, we
subject it to a sudden quench and explore the subsequent unitary dynamics. To address the …
