Integrable quantum dynamics of open collective spin models

Ribeiro, Pedro (avtor), Prosen, Tomaž (avtor)

We consider a collective quantum spin s in contact with Markovian spin-polarized baths. Using a conserved superoperator charge, a differential representation of the Liouvillian is constructed to find its exact spectrum and eigenmodes. We study the spectral properties of the model in the large-s limit using a semiclassical quantization condition and show that the spectral density may diverge along certain curves in the complex plane.We exploit our exact solution to characterize steady-state properties, in particular at the discontinuous phase transition that arises for unpolarized environments, and to determine the decay rates of coherences and populations. Our approach provides a systematic way of finding integrable Liouvillian operators with nontrivial steady states as well as a way to study their spectral properties and eigenmodes.
