Non-Hermitian topological phases and dynamical quantum phase transitions: a generic connection

Longwen Zhou, Qianqian Du

Abstract The dynamical and topological properties of non-Hermitian systems have attracted great attention in recent years. In this work, we establish an intrinsic connection between two classes of intriguing phenomena—topological phases and dynamical quantum phase transitions (DQPTs)—in non-Hermitian systems. Focusing on one-dimensional models with chiral symmetry, we find DQPTs following the quench from a trivial to a non-Hermitian topological phase. Moreover, the critical momenta and critical time of the DQPTs are found to be directly related to the topological invariants of the non-Hermitian system. We further demonstrate our theory in three prototypical non-Hermitian lattice models, the lossy Kitaev chain (LKC), the LKC with next-nearest-neighbor hoppings, and the nonreciprocal Su–Schrieffer–Heeger model. Finally, we suggest a proposal to experimentally verify the found connection by a nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond.

Biorthogonal dynamical quantum phase transitions in non-Hermitian topological superconductors

Haoran Gu, Yubo Zhao, Siyuan Cheng +3 more

Dynamical quantum phase transitions in non-Hermitian systems pose fundamental challenges due to the intrinsic biorthogonality of their eigenstates. In this work, we extend a biorthogonal framework to investigate dynamical quantum phase transitions in non-Hermitian topological superconductors. Taking the non-Hermitian Kitaev chain as a prototypical model, we construct an associated-state formalism and reformulate the Loschmidt rate function, dynamical topological order parameter, and dynamical Fisher zeros. Within this framework, we find that the critical times at which dynamical quantum phase transitions occur differ from those based on the conventional self-normal approaches. We further analyze momentum-resolved subsystems at critical momenta and demonstrate the robustness of the biorthogonal framework. Our work highlights the essential role of biorthogonality in nonequilibrium dynamics and establishes a consistent theoretical framework for dynamical quantum phase transitions in non-Hermitian topological superconductors.

Measurement phase transitions in the no-click limit as quantum phase transitions of a non-hermitean vacuum

Caterina Zerba, Alessandro Silva

We study dynamical phase transitions occurring in the stationary state of the dynamics of integrable many-body non-hermitian Hamiltonians, which can be either realized as a no-click limit of a stochastic Schrödinger equation or using spacetime duality of quantum circuits. In two specific models, the Transverse Field Ising Chain and the Long Range Kitaev Chain, we observe that the entanglement phase transitions occurring in the stationary state have the same nature as that occurring in the vacuum of the non-hermitian Hamiltonian: bounded entanglement entropy when the imaginary part of the quasi-particle spectrum is gapped and a logarithmic growth for gapless imaginary spectrum. This observation suggests the possibility to generalize the area-law theorem to non-Hermitian Hamiltonians.
