Coherent states of non-Hermitian quantum systems
We use the Gazeau-Klauder formalsim to construct coherent states of non-Hermitian quantum systems. In particular we use this formalism to construct coherent state of a PT symmetric system. We also describe the construction of coherent states following Klauder’s minimal prescription. e-mail : [email protected] e-mail : [email protected]
متن کاملUniversal construction of order parameters for translation-invariant quantum lattice systems with symmetry-breaking order.
For any translation-invariant quantum lattice system with a symmetry group G, we propose a practical and universal construction of order parameters which identify quantum phase transitions with symmetry-breaking order. They are defined in terms of the fidelity between a ground state and its symmetry-transformed counterpart, and are computed through tensor network representations of the ground-s...
متن کاملSymmetry-breaking skyrmion states in fractional quantum Hall systems
We calculate in an analyical fashion the energies and net spins of skyrmions in fractional quantum Hall systems, based on the suggestion that skyrmion states are spontaneously LZ and SZ symmetry-breaking states. The quasiholeskyrmion state with a charge −e/3 around ν = 1/3, where the ground state is known as a spin-polarized ferromagnetic state, is found to exist even in high magnetic fields up...
متن کاملNon-Hermitian Quantum Systems and Time-Optimal Quantum Evolution
Recently, Bender et al. have considered the quantum brachistochrone problem for the non-Hermitian PT -symmetric quantum system and have shown that the optimal time evolution required to transform a given initial state |ψi〉 into a specific final state |ψf 〉 can be made arbitrarily small. Additionally, it has been shown that finding the shortest possible time requires only the solution of the two...
متن کاملDynamical Quantum Phase Transitions in Systems with Continuous Symmetry Breaking
Interacting many-body systems that are driven far away from equilibrium can exhibit phase transitions between dynamically emerging quantum phases, which manifest as singularities in the Loschmidt echo. Whether and under which conditions such dynamical transitions occur in higher-dimensional systems with spontaneously broken continuous symmetries is largely elusive thus far. Here, we study the d...
