Dynamical classic limit: Dissipative vs conservative systems

Gaspar Gonzalez, Angelo Plastino, A.M. Kowalski

We analyze the nonlinear dynamics of a quartic semiclassical system able to describe the interaction of matter with a field. We do it in both dissipative and conservative scenarios. In particular, we study the classical limit of both frameworks and compare the associated features. In the two environments, we heavily use a system's invariant, related to the Uncertainty Principle, that helps to determine how the dynamics tends to the pertinent classical limit. We exhibit the convergence to the classical limit and also verify that the Uncertainty Principle is complied with during the entire process, even in the presence of dissipation.

Bridging the classical and quantum regimes in a dissipative Ising chain

Zhenming Zhang, Haowei Li, Wei Yi

We study the long-time dynamics of a dissipative Ising chain with varying quantum correlation. Invoking an ensemble-average formalism and assuming spatial translation symmetry, we show that the dynamics can be described by a Lindblad master equation with an interpolated coherent Hamiltonian. In the classical limit, the interpolation Hamiltonian leads to a set of nonlinear equations of motion, where limit cycles can emerge in the long-time dynamics. In the quantum limit, by contrast, the system approaches a ferromagnetic steady state at long times. In between the two extremes, the discrete spatial translation symmetry can be spontaneously broken, as an antiferromagnetic steady state emerges, bridging the classical and quantum regimes. In particular, we illustrate how the classical limit-cycle behavior gradually disappears with the increase of quantum correlation. Since our model in the two extremes respectively applies to a dissipative Rydberg gas in the high- and zero-temperature limits, we expect it to provide a qualitatively correct description of dissipative Rydberg gases at interim temperatures and shed light on the fate of limit cycles in a quantum open system.

Out-of-equilibrium evolution of kinetically constrained many-body quantum systems under purely dissipative dynamics

Beatriz Olmos, Igor Lesanovsky, Juan P. Garrahan

We explore the relaxation dynamics of quantum many-body systems that undergo purely dissipative dynamics through non-classical jump operators that can establish quantum coherence. Our goal is to shed light on the differences in the relaxation dynamics that arise in comparison to systems evolving via classical rate equations. In particular, we focus on a scenario where both quantum and classical dissipative evolution lead to a stationary state with the same values of diagonal or "classical" observables. As a basis for illustrating our ideas we use spin systems whose dynamics becomes correlated and complex due to dynamical constraints, inspired by kinetically constrained models (KCMs) of classical glasses. We show that in the quantum case the relaxation can be orders of magnitude slower than the classical one due to the presence of quantum coherences. Aspects of these idealized quantum KCMs become manifest in a strongly interacting Rydberg gas under electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) conditions in an appropriate limit. Beyond revealing a link between this Rydberg gas and the rather abstract dissipative KCMs of quantum glassy systems, our study sheds light on the limitations of the use of classical rate equations for capturing the non-equilibrium behavior of this many-body system.
