This review describes the emerging field of waveguide quantum electrodynamics concerned
with the interaction of photons propagating in a waveguide with localized quantum emitters …

Thermodynamics of quantum systems and quantum thermal machines are rapidly
develo** fields, which have already delivered several promising results, as well as raised …

Synchronization is a phenomenon where interacting particles lock their motion and display
non-trivial dynamics. Despite intense efforts studying synchronization in systems without …

Open quantum Dicke models are paradigmatic systems for the investigation of light-matter
interaction in out-of-equilibrium quantum settings. Albeit being structurally simple, these …

The breaking of the continuous time-translation symmetry manifests, in Markovian open
quantum systems, through the emergence of nonstationary dynamical phases. Systems that …

Dissipative time crystals can appear in spin systems, when the Z 2 symmetry of the
Hamiltonian is broken by the environment, and the square of total spin operator S 2 is …

We study fluctuations in many-body quantum heat engines operating in the presence of
collective system-bath interactions. We show that collective effects in open quantum systems …

We study the emergence of the prethermal Floquet time crystal (pFTC) in disordered chiral
multiferroic chains. The model is an extension of the usual periodically driven nearest …

Can quantum mechanical thermodynamic engines outperform their classical counterparts?
To address one aspect of this question, we experimentally realize and characterize an …

Time crystals are nonequilibrium many-body phases in which the state of the system
dynamically approaches a limit cycle. While these phases have recently been the focus of …
