Coherence, entanglement, and quantumness in closed and open systems with conserved charge, with an application to many-body localization (2019)
Journal Article
Macieszczak, K., Levi, E., Macrì, T., Lesanovsky, I., & Garrahan, J. P. (2019). Coherence, entanglement, and quantumness in closed and open systems with conserved charge, with an application to many-body localization. Physical Review A, 99(5), Article 052354. https://doi.org/10.1103/physreva.99.052354

While the scaling of entanglement in a quantum system can be used to distinguish many-body quantum phases, it is usually hard to quantify the amount of entanglement in mixed states of open quantum systems, while measuring entanglement experimentally,...

Non-equilibrium absorbing state phase transitions in discrete-time quantum cellular automaton dynamics on spin lattices (2018)
Journal Article
Lesanovsky, I., Macieszczak, K., & Garrahan, J. P. (2018). Non-equilibrium absorbing state phase transitions in discrete-time quantum cellular automaton dynamics on spin lattices. Quantum Science and Technology, 4(2), https://doi.org/10.1088/2058-9565/aaf831

We introduce a discrete-time quantum dynamics on a two-dimensional lattice that describes the evolution of a $1+1$-dimensional spin system. The underlying quantum map is constructed such that the reduced state at each time step is separable. We show...

Unified Thermodynamic Uncertainty Relations in Linear Response (2018)
Journal Article
Macieszczak, K., Brandner, K., & Garrahan, J. P. (2018). Unified Thermodynamic Uncertainty Relations in Linear Response. Physical Review Letters, 121(13), https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.121.130601

Thermodynamic uncertainty relations (TURs) are recently established relations between the relative uncertainty of time-integrated currents and entropy production in non-equilibrium systems. For small perturbations away from equilibrium, linear respon... Read More about Unified Thermodynamic Uncertainty Relations in Linear Response.

Metastable decoherence-free subspaces and electromagnetically induced transparency in interacting many-body systems (2017)
Journal Article
Macieszczak, K., Zhou, Y., Hofferberth, S., Garrahan, J. P., Li, W., & Lesanovsky, I. (2017). Metastable decoherence-free subspaces and electromagnetically induced transparency in interacting many-body systems. Physical Review A, 96(4), Article 043860. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.96.043860

We investigate the dynamics of a generic interacting many-body system under conditions of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). This problem is of current relevance due to its connection to non-linear optical media realized by Rydberg atoms...

Metastability in an open quantum Ising model (2016)
Journal Article
Rose, D. C., Macieszczak, K., Lesanovsky, I., & Garrahan, J. P. (2016). Metastability in an open quantum Ising model. Physical Review E, 94(5), Article 052132. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevE.94.052132

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 either a nonequilibrium phase transition or a smooth but sharp crossover,... Read More about Metastability in an open quantum Ising model.

Towards a Theory of Metastability in Open Quantum Dynamics (2016)
Journal Article
Macieszczak, K., Guţă, M., Lesanovsky, I., & Garrahan, J. P. (2016). Towards a Theory of Metastability in Open Quantum Dynamics. Physical Review Letters, 116(24), Article 240404. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.116.240404

© 2016 American Physical Society. By generalizing concepts from classical stochastic dynamics, we establish the basis for a theory of metastability in Markovian open quantum systems. Partial relaxation into long-lived metastable states - distinct fro... Read More about Towards a Theory of Metastability in Open Quantum Dynamics.

Dynamical phase transitions as a resource for quantum enhanced metrology (2016)
Journal Article
Macieszczak, K., Gu??, M., Lesanovsky, I., & Garrahan, J. P. (2016). Dynamical phase transitions as a resource for quantum enhanced metrology. Physical Review A, 93(2), Article 022103. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.93.022103

We consider the general problem of estimating an unknown control parameter of an open quantum system. We establish a direct relation between the evolution of both system and environment and the precision with which the parameter can be estimated. We...
