Scattering phase shift in quantum mechanics on quantum computers: non-Hermitian systems and imaginary-time simulations
Peng Guo, Paul LeVan, Frank X. Lee +1 more·Mar 31, 2026
To overcome the fast oscillatory behavior of correlation functions for extracting scattering phase shift in real-time quantum simulations encountered in Ref.\cite{Guo:2026qkx}, we propose and test two solutions in the present work. One is to simulate...
When level repulsion fails: non-normality and chaos in open quantum systems
Caio B. Naves, Thomas Klein Kvorning, Jonas Larson·Mar 31, 2026
For Hamiltonian systems, level statistics provide a faithful diagnostic of quantum chaos. By analogy, the statistics of the Lindbladian spectrum are often used in open quantum systems, and the Grobe-Haake-Sommers conjecture proposes that systems with...
Dynamics of entanglement entropy for a locally monitored lattice gauge theory
Nisa Ara, Arpan Bhattacharyya, Nilachal Chakrabarti +2 more·Mar 31, 2026
The $1+1$ dimensional $Z_2$ gauge theory is the simplest model that allows for quantum computation or quantum simulation to probe the fundamental aspects of a gauge theory coupled with dynamical fermions. To reliably benchmark such a system, it is cr...
Real Variance-Based Variational Quantum Eigensolver for Non-Hermitian Matrices
Durgesh Pandey, Ankit Kumar Das, P. Arumugam·Mar 30, 2026
Non-Hermitian operators naturally arise in the description of open quantum systems, which exhibit features such as resonances and decay processes, where the associated eigenvalues are complex. Standard quantum algorithms, including the Variational Qu...
Effects of measurements on entanglement dynamics for $1+1$D $\mathbb Z_2$ lattice gauge theory
Nilachal Chakrabarti, Nisa Ara, Neha Nirbhan +2 more·Mar 30, 2026
The $1+1$ dimensional $\mathbb Z_2$ gauge theory is the simplest model that allows for quantum simulation to probe the fundamental aspects of a gauge theory coupled with dynamical fermions. To reliably benchmark such a system, it is crucial to unders...
Symmetry-Fractionalized Skin Effects in Non-Hermitian Luttinger Liquids
Christopher Ekman, Emil J. Bergholtz, Paolo Molignini·Mar 30, 2026
In one dimension, strongly correlated gapless systems are highly constrained due to conformal invariance, leading to the decoupling of low energy degrees of freedom corresponding to different symmetry sectors. The most familiar example of this is spi...
Quantized Dissipation from the Inverse-Square Anomaly in a Non-Hermitian Klein-Gordon Field
Mansour Haghighat, Ali Nouri·Mar 30, 2026
We construct an exactly solvable relativistic model that embeds the anomalous inverse-square interaction into a non-Hermitian Klein-Gordon field theory through a purely imaginary, scale-invariant scalar potential. The stationary field equation reduce...
Exact Skin Critical Phase and Configurable Fractal Wavefunctions via Imaginary Gauge Phase Imprint in Non-Hermitian Lattices
Ji-Long Dong, Shi-Liang Zhu, Dan-Wei Zhang·Mar 30, 2026
The generation of complex states like multifractal critical states has been an outstanding challenge in both classical and quantum physics. Here we propose a general framework, termed the imaginary gauge phase imprint, allowing to engineer rigorous w...
Generating function for Hermitian and non-Hermitian models
Hua-Yu Bai, Yang Chen, Guang-Can Guo +2 more·Mar 27, 2026
It is well known that Hermitian and non-Hermitian models exhibit distinct physics and require different theoretical tools. In this work, we propose a unified generating-function framework for both classes with generic boundary conditions and local im...
Multifractal Analysis of the Non-Hermitian Skin Effect: From Many-Body to Tree Models
Shu Hamanaka·Mar 27, 2026
The non-Hermitian skin effect is an anomalous localization phenomenon induced by nonreciprocal dissipation and has attracted considerable attention in recent years both theoretically and experimentally. In this article, we review the multifractal asp...

Carlos I. Pérez Sánchez·Mar 26, 2026
For a family of two-matrix models \[ \frac{1}{2} \operatorname{Tr}(A^2+B^2) - \frac{g}{4} \operatorname{Tr}(A^4+B^4) - \begin{cases} \frac{h}{2} \operatorname{Tr}( A BA B) \\ \frac{h}{4} \operatorname{Tr}( A BA B+ ABBA ) \\ \frac{h}{2} \operatorname{...
Puiseux series about exceptional singularities dictated by symmetry-allowed Hessenberg forms of perturbation matrices
Ipsita Mandal·Mar 26, 2026
We develop a systematic framework for determining the nature of exceptional points of $n^{\rm th}$ order (EP$_n$s) in non-Hermitian (NH) systems, represented by complex square matrices. By expressing symmetry-preserving perturbations in the Jordan-no...
Exceptional-point-constrained locking of boundary-sensitive topological transitions in non-Hermitian lattices
Huimin Wang, Yanxin Liu, Zhihao Xu +1 more·Mar 26, 2026
Point-gap topology under periodic boundary conditions and line-gap topology under open boundary conditions are generally inequivalent in non-Hermitian systems. We show that, in chiral non-Hermitian lattices, these two boundary-sensitive topological t...

Yang Yue, Nan Li, Xin Zhang +8 more·Mar 26, 2026
Machine learning (ML) is shaping our exploration of topological matter, whose existence is inherently tied to the geometry of quantum states or energy spectra. In non-Hermitian systems, distinctive spectral geometry can lead to topological braiding o...

Dipendu Halder, Srijata Lahiri, Saurabh Basu·Mar 25, 2026
Non-Hermitian skin effect, which is a unique feature of non-Hermitian systems, exhibits the formation of an extensive number of boundary modes under open boundary conditions. However, its manifestation in higher dimensions remains elusive. In our wor...

Xiangru Chen, Jien Wu, Xingyu Chen +6 more·Mar 25, 2026
Non-Hermitian systems generally host complex spectra that bring unique spectral topologies, leading to the spectral braiding and non-Hermitian skin effect. The experimental exploration of non-Hermitian physics is mainly concentrated in artificial sys...
Parameter trajectory engineering for state transfer and quantum sensing in non-Hermitian two-level systems
Qi-Cheng Wu, Yan-Hui Zhou, Biao-liang Ye +4 more·Mar 25, 2026
Exceptional points (EPs) in non-Hermitian systems give rise to enhanced sensitivity and chiral state transfer, which are important for quantum technologies. Although parameter trajectories encircling EPs can control symmetric and chiral state transfe...
