Loss-free excitonic quantum battery

J Liu, D Segal, G Hanna - The Journal of Physical Chemistry C, 2019 - ACS Publications
Robust quantum energy storage devices are essential to realize powerful next-generation
batteries. Herein, we provide a proof of concept for a loss-free excitonic quantum battery …

Dynamical symmetries and symmetry-protected selection rules in periodically driven quantum systems

G Engelhardt, J Cao - Physical review letters, 2021 - APS
In recent experiments, the light-matter interaction has reached the ultrastrong coupling limit,
which can give rise to dynamical generalizations of spatial symmetries in periodically driven …

Stationary state degeneracy of open quantum systems with non-abelian symmetries

Z Zhang, J Tindall, J Mur-Petit, D Jaksch… - Journal of Physics A …, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
We study the null space degeneracy of open quantum systems with multiple non-abelian,
strong symmetries. By decomposing the Hilbert space representation of these symmetries …

Theory of classical metastability in open quantum systems

K Macieszczak, DC Rose, I Lesanovsky… - Physical Review …, 2021 - APS
We present a general theory of classical metastability in open quantum systems.
Metastability is a consequence of a large separation in timescales in the dynamics, leading …

Metastability in an open quantum Ising model

DC Rose, K Macieszczak, I Lesanovsky, JP Garrahan - Physical Review E, 2016 - APS
We apply a recently developed theory for metastability in open quantum systems to a one-
dimensional dissipative quantum Ising model. Earlier results suggest this model features …
