Kerr Induced Control of Synchronization and Quantum State Recovery in a Driven van der Pol Oscillator

We investigate how Kerr nonlinearity modifies quantum synchronization in a squeezed quantum van der Pol oscillator. We show that the Kerr interaction produces an amplitude-dependent frequency shift that drives a saddle-node bifurcation, transforming the classical phase-space structure from bistable to monostable dynamics. In the quantum regime, this transition manifests as systematic frequency pulling and spectral broadening, while the steady-state Wigner function reveals a continuous correspondence between the quantum state and the semiclassical attractor despite finite quantum fluctuations. By constructing global synchronization phase diagrams in the squeezing--Kerr parameter space, we uncover a remarkably linear dependence of the critical squeezing strength required to maintain phase locking on the Kerr nonlinearity. We further demonstrate that the synchronization boundary does not coincide with the crossover between super- and sub-Poissonian photon statistics, showing that synchronization and photon-number statistics characterize distinct aspects of the quantum steady state. These results provide quantitative design principles for controlling quantum synchronization through Kerr nonlinearity, with potential relevance to trapped-ion, superconducting-circuit, and optomechanical platforms.

Synergistic Effects of Detuning and Auxiliary Qubits on Quantum Synchronization

We investigate how detuning and auxiliary qubits collaboratively enhance quantum synchronization in a dissipative multi-qubit system that is coupled to a structured reservoir. Our findings indicate that while detuning is ineffective in Markovian environments, it emerges as a powerful control parameter in the non-Markovian regime, where environmental memory facilitates long-lived phase coherence. It is shown that adding more auxiliary qubits amplifies this effect by strengthening the collective coupling and enhancing memory, resulting in robust phase locking within the system. Analysis using the Husimi Q-function, synchronization measures, and Arnold tongue structures reveals a detuning-induced enhancement of phase locking, which significantly improves stability compared to the resonance case. These results establish a cooperative control strategy where detuning actively engineers phases, while auxiliary qubits provide the necessary memory for sustained synchronization.

Investigating the Impact of Qubit Velocity on Quantum Synchronization Dynamics

We investigate the quantum synchronization dynamics of a moving qubit interacting with a dissipative cavity environment, using the Husimi $Q$-function to analyze its phase space evolution. Unlike conventional synchronization between separate subsystems, we focus on self-synchronization phenomena, where the qubit's phase dynamics exhibit locking to its initial phase distribution. We explore the effects of varying qubit velocity and system detuning across weak and strong coupling regimes. In the weak coupling regime, the system rapidly decoheres with minimal phase preference. In contrast, strong coupling leads to the emergence and persistence of a distinct phase peak, indicating phase locking and enhanced synchronization. These results offer insight into how motion and detuning can regulate coherence and phase stability in open quantum systems. Our approach aligns with recent studies that generalize synchronization concepts to single quantum systems.

Enhancing Quantum Synchronization in a driven qubit system coupled to a structured environment

In this paper, we delve into the issue of Quantum Synchronization in a driven two-level (qubit) system situated within a structured environment. Our findings have practical implications as we discover that adding a time-dependent periodic modulation to the transition frequency of the qubit can significantly enhance quantum synchronization. We first discovered the phase preference and, consequently, the phase locking conditions in our system using the Husimi Q-function. It is revealed that combining frequency modulation and non-Markovian effects enables us to achieve a stable phase-locking for the system. We show that tuning the amplitude-tofrequency ratio of the modulation process on the zeros of the zeroth-order Bessel function led to phase locking and, thus, surprisingly enhances quantum synchronization in the system. These results provide new insights into efficiently understanding phase dynamics in quantum environments.
