Symmetry as a source of hidden coherent structures in quantum physics: General outlook and examples

V. P. Karassiov

A general algebraic approach incorporating both invariance groups and dynamical symmetry algebras is developed to reveal hidden coherent structures (closed complexes and configurations) in quantum manybody physics models due to symmetries of their Hamiltonians H . Its general ideas are manifested on some recent new examples: (1) G-invariant biphotons and a related SU (2)-invariant treatment of unpolarized light; (2) quasispin clusters in nonlinear models of quantum optics; and (3) construction of composite particles and (para)fields from G -invariant clusters due to internal symmetries.

Symmetry approach to the analysis of coherent structures in quantum optics: Foundations and examples

V. P. Karassiov

A general symmetry method for the discovery and analysis of hidden coherent structures in quantum models with an invariant Hamiltonian is proposed. The method is based on the mathematical concept of dual algebraic pairs, which unifies the actions of invariance groups and algebras of dynamic symmetry. Its efficiency is illustrated by the examples of biphotons and the invariant treatment of unpolarized light quasi-spin clusters, and “optical atoms” in nonlinear quantum-optical models.

Hidden Time-Reversal Symmetry, Quantum Detailed Balance and Exact Solutions of Driven-Dissipative Quantum Systems

David C K Roberts, Andrew Lingenfelter, Aashish A. Clerk

Driven-dissipative quantum systems generically do not satisfy simple notions of detailed balance based on the time symmetry of correlation functions. We show that such systems can nonetheless exhibit a hidden time-reversal symmetry, which most directly manifests itself in a doubled version of the original system prepared in an appropriate entangled thermofield double state. This hidden time-reversal symmetry has a direct operational utility: it provides a general method for finding exact solutions of nontrivial steady states. Special cases of this approach include the coherent quantum absorber and complex-P function methods from quantum optics. We also show that hidden time-reversal symmetry has observable consequences even in single-system experiments, and can be broken by the nontrivial combination of nonlinearity, thermal fluctuations, and driving. To illustrate our ideas, we analyze concrete examples of driven qubits and nonlinear cavities. These systems exhibit hidden time-reversal symmetry but not conventional detailed balance.
