Universal dynamics from a single-particle dark state

Arghavan Safavi-Naini, Johannes Schachenmayer, Mohammad Maghrebi, Ruben Daraban

A single-particle dark state at zero momentum in a dissipative spin chain leads to universal many-body scaling dynamics at long times.

The bundle contains the canonical record plus signed events. A mirror can host it anywhere and recompute the same current state with the deterministic merge algorithm.

Claims

C1strongest claim

While the zero-momentum mode is dark at the single-particle level, it decays slowly as 1/log t as it becomes dressed by other modes through a dissipation-induced nonlinearity. We demonstrate that the momentum distribution takes a universal scaling form in k sqrt(t), and the total density decays as 1/sqrt(t) log t.

C2weakest assumption

The spin chain with correlated dissipation on neighboring sites admits a single-particle dark state at zero momentum whose dressing by other modes through dissipation-induced nonlinearity dominates the long-time many-body dynamics.

C3one line summary

A single-particle dark state in a dissipating spin chain induces universal long-time many-body dynamics with momentum distribution scaling as k sqrt(t) and density decaying as 1/(sqrt(t) log t).
