Dissipative transitions in Floquet-Lindblad systems

Rosario Fazio

Thanks to the recent impressing experimental progresses, the investigation of non-equilibrium properties of driven-dissipative systems in quantum systems has received an impressive boost. This activity revived the study of dissipative phase transition in synthetic matter. The predicted steady-state phase diagram of these driven dissipative systems becomes incredibly rich, displaying a variety of phenomena. I will discuss the steady-state phase diagram in which the competition between the unitary evolution and the dissipative term manifests in a time-periodic dynamics. The Hamiltonian I will consider is that of a long-range interacting spin system, the non-unitary part is local. I will discuss both symmetry-breaking phase and entanglement phase transitions.
