One is related to isolated integrable models, the other one to exactly solvable dissipatively driven spin chains. The device enabling their analysis is identified as the quantum group symmetry.
In the framework of isolated systems we focus on the concept of integrable Floquet driven systems. In particular, we show how to build such systems out of the basic constituents of integrability structure. This allows substantiated and conclusive statements,for instance, about the transport phenomena. Despite their inherent relation, the presented integrable periodically driven models originate in two different ideas. On the one hand we have Trotterisations of integrable
spin chains, concieved in an effort to better understand the dynamics of spin models. Then, there are systems originating in the attempts to solve quantum field theory in an algebraically closed form, for example, the quantum Hirota equation. The bulk of our consideration of isolated quantum systems consists of the construction of extensive conservation laws that either (i) constitute the generalised Gibbs ensemble and the hydrodynamic description of thermalisation after a quantum quench, or (ii) prevent the decay of current autocorrelations and thus characterise ideal transport in the system. The exact way in which these charges determine the dynamics stems from the symmetries of the quantum group representations.
The second part of the exposition is dedicated to open quantum systems. Again we distinguish two formally related settings. The first one is that of a boundary driven quantum cellular automaton, our particular example being the integrable Trotterisation of the Heisenberg magnet. Starting from a repeated interaction protocol, in which the system under scrutiny is repeatedly coupled to the environment, we introduce the Kraus map as a general form of a dissipative time evolution of the density matrix. We then solve for its unique nonequilibrium steady state, using integrability structure of the model. The other setting is that of a dissipatively boundary driven spin chain in the continuous time. Here we present the recently developed formalism of inhomogeneous Lax structure. Using it we demonstrate the solvability of the XXZ and XYZ spin chains, acted upon by the Lindblad operators that polarise the boundary spins in arbitrary directions. The ansatz for the steady state is particularly interesting, since it exhibits a
previously unknown integrability structure, differing from site to site in the spin chain. This structure can independently produce nontrivial conservation laws in an isolated spin
chain with arbitrary boundary fields.</dc:description><dc:date>2019</dc:date><dc:date>2019-10-02 07:45:05</dc:date><dc:type>Doktorsko delo/naloga</dc:type><dc:identifier>111487</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>VisID: 102608</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>COBISS_ID: 3374436</dc:identifier><dc:language>sl</dc:language></metadata>
