Operator-frame geometry of non-compact quantum systems with frame-vacuum phase transitions

We formulate the geometric structure of non-compact bosonic quantum systems in regimes where vacuum instability renders the relevant quantum states non-normalizable, causing conventional state-space quantum geometry -- described by the Berry connection, curvature, and quantum metric -- to become ill-defined. To overcome this breakdown, we develop a formulation of quantum geometry at the level of canonical operator frames, allowing for complexified Bogoliubov-Valatin transformations that lift the requirement that creation operators be Hermitian conjugates of annihilation operators. Canonical operator frames are defined as choices of bosonic creation and annihilation operators realizing the canonical commutation relations. A natural equivalence relation among such frames generalizes the phase ambiguity of quantum states and determines a parameter space that analytically extends the stable-regime parameter space. The space of canonical operator frames forms a principal bundle over parameter space -- the operator-frame bundle -- equipped with a natural Ehresmann connection that defines parallel transport while preserving the canonical commutation relations. In the stable regime, this construction reduces to the Berry connection, while more generally it yields a well-defined operator-space quantum geometric tensor (QGT) that remains valid across vacuum instabilities. Using the framework of rigged Hilbert spaces, we define a notion of quantum frame vacuum and obtain a consistent state-space QGT. Focusing on a single bosonic mode, we demonstrate analyticity of the QGT across the quantum frame-vacuum phase transition and present the corresponding phase diagram on the complexified squeezing-parameter plane. We further introduce a realistic physical setting that allows continuous paths connecting stable and unstable regimes, along which the QGT evolves smoothly across Stokes lines.

Theory of Stationary Photon Emission from a Steadily Driven Parametric Oscillator Based on the Complex Spectral Analysis of the Heisenberg Equation

We show how the properties of photon emission to a continuous field from a parametric oscillator relate to the behavior of the complex eigenfrequencies of the oscillator. The parametric oscillator has complex eigenfrequencies due to non-Hermiticity with two origins: parametric amplification and dissipation resulting from the loss of photons to a continuous field. In situations where the oscillator is close to the parametric resonance, and the coupling to the driving field is strong enough for a complex eigenfrequency to lie in the upper half of the first Riemann sheet, the number of photons of the parametric oscillator and the continuous field increases exponentially. The parametric amplification is counteracted by dissipation due to the coupling of the parametric oscillator to the continuous field, and if the dissipation is sufficiently strong relative to the amplification, the exponential growth is suppressed. The suppression occurs when the complex eigenfrequency responsible for the exponential growth moves into the second Riemann sheet analytically continued beyond the branch cut of the Green function on the real axis along the continuum of frequency. As a result, there appears a stationary photon emission, where creation of photons balance with dissipation due to emission of the photons to the continuous field. Then there is a constant flux of photons, with the number of photons in the continuous field increasing in proportion to time, while the number of photons in the parametric oscillator remains constant.

Energy-Efficient Pseudo-Ratchet for Brownian Computers through One-Dimensional Quantum Brownian Motion

Brownian computers utilize thermal fluctuations as a resource for computation and hold promise for achieving ultra-low-energy computations. However, the lack of a statistical direction in Brownian motion necessitates the incorporation of ratchets that facilitate the speeding up and completion of computations in Brownian computers. To make the ratchet mechanism work effectively, an external field is required to overcome thermal fluctuations, which has the drawback of increasing energy consumption. As a remedy for this drawback, we introduce a new approach based on one-dimensional (1D) quantum Brownian motion, which exhibits intrinsic unidirectional transport even in the absence of external forces or asymmetric potential gradients, thereby functioning as an effective pseudo-ratchet. Specifically, we exploit that quantum resonance effects in 1D systems divide the momentum space of particles into subspaces. These subspaces have no momentum inversion symmetry, resulting in the natural emergence of unidirectional flow. We analyze this pseudo-ratchet mechanism without energy dissipation from an entropic perspective and show that it remains consistent with the second law of thermodynamics.

Coherent single-spin electron resonance spectroscopy manifested at an exceptional-point singularity in a doped polyacetylene

Spin-dependent charge transfer decay in an alkali atom doped polyacetylene is studied in terms of the complex spectral analysis, revealing the single-spin Zeeman splitting influenced by the spin-orbit interaction. Nonhermitian effective Hamiltonian has been derived from the total system hermitian Hamiltonian using Brillouin-Wigner-Feshbach projection method, where the microscopic spin-dependent dissipation effect is correctly incorporated in the energy-dependent self-energy. Since the present method maintains the dynamical and chiral symmetries of the total system, we discovered two types of exceptional point (EP) singularities in a unified perspective: the EP surface and EP ring are attributed to the dynamical and chiral symmetry breaking, respectively. We have revealed that the coherent single-spin electron resonance (SSESR) spectrum reflects the complex eigenenergy spectrum of the system. We have formulated the SSESR spectrum in terms of the nonlinear response function in the Liouville-space pathway approach, where we have constructed the Liouville space basis using the complex eigenstates of the total Hamiltonian. We have calculated the one- and two-dimensional Fourier transform SSESR (1DFT and 2DFT) spectra reflecting the spin-relaxation dynamics at the donor site. While the 1DFT SSESR spectrum reflects the complex eigenenergy spectrum, the 2DFT gives detailed information on the quantum coherence in the spin-relaxation dynamics as a cross-correlation between the two frequencies. We found a giant response of the coherent SSESR around the EP ring singularity due to the vanishing normalization factors at the EP ring and the resonance effect. We have discovered that the giant response is much larger in magnitudes in the 2DFT spectrum than in the 1DFT spectrum, which promises the 2DFT SSESR a useful tool to observe the single-spin response in a molecule.

Dissipative dynamical Casimir effect in terms of the complex spectral analysis in the symplectic-Floquet space

Dynamical Casimir effect of the optomechanical cavity interacting with one-dimensional photonic crystal is theoretically investigated in terms of the complex spectral analysis of Floquet-Liouvillian in the symplectic-Floquet space. The quantum vacuum fluctuation of the intra-cavity mode is parametrically amplified by a periodic motion of the mirror boundary, and the amplified photons are spontaneously emitted to the photonic band. We have derived the non-Hermitian effective Floquet-Liouvillian from the total system Liouvillian with the use of the Brillouin-Wigner-Feshbach projection method in the symplectic-Floquet space. The microscopic dissipation process of the photon emission from the cavity has been taken into account by the energy-dependent self-energy. We have obtained the discrete eigenmodes of the total system by non-perturbatively solving the nonlinear complex eigenvalue problem of the effective Floquet-Liouvillian, where the eigenmodes are represented by the multimode Bogoliubov transformation. Based on the microscopic dynamics, the nonequilibrium stationary eigenmodes are identified as the eigenmodes with vanishing values of their imaginary parts due to the balance between the parametric amplification and dissipation effects. We have found that the nonlocal stationary eigenmode appears when the mixing between the cavity mode and the photonic band is caused by the indirect virtual transition, where the external field frequency to cause the DCE can be largely reduced by using the finite bandwidth photonic band.

Anomalous diffusion in Davydov quantum molecular chain model

We discuss anomalous relaxation processes in Davydov one-dimensional chain molecule that consists of an exciton and an acoustic phonon field as a thermal reservoir in the chain. We derive a kinetic equation for the exciton using the complex spectral representation of the Liouville-von Neumann operator. Due to the one-dimensionality, the momentum space separates into infinite sets of disjoint irreducible subspaces dynamically independent of one another. Hence, momentum relaxation occurs only within each subspace toward the Maxwell distribution. We obtain a hydrodynamic mode with transport coefficients, a sound velocity and a diffusion coefficient, defined in each subspace. Moreover, because the sound velocity has momentum dependence, phase mixing affects the broadening of the spatial distribution of the exciton in addition to the diffusion process. Due to the phase mixing the increase rate of the mean-square displacement of the exciton increases linearly with time and diverges in the long-time limit.

Dynamical Casimir effect in dissipative optomechanical cavity interacting with photonic crystal

We theoretically study the dynamical Casimir effect (DCE), i.e., parametric amplification of a quantum vacuum, in an optomechanical cavity interacting with a photonic crystal, which is considered to be an ideal system to study the microscopic dissipation effect on the DCE. Starting from a total Hamiltonian including the photonic band system as well as the optomechanical cavity, we have derived an effective Floquet-Liouvillian by applying the Floquet method and Brillouin-Wigner-Feshbach projection method. The microscopic dissipation effect is rigorously taken into account in terms of the energy-dependent self-energy. The obtained effective Floquet-Liouvillian exhibits the two competing instabilities, i.e., parametric and resonance instabilities, which determine the stationary mode as a result of the balance between them in the dissipative DCE. Solving the complex eigenvalue problem of the Floquet-Liouvillian, we have determined the stationary mode with vanishing values of the imaginary parts of the eigenvalues. We find a new non-local multimode DCE represented by a multimode Bogoliubov transformation of the cavity mode and the photon band. We show the practical advantage for the observation of DCE in that we can largely reduce the pump frequency when the cavity system is embedded in a narrow band photonic crystal with a bandgap.

A new perspective on the Fano absorption spectrum in terms of complex spectral analysis

A new aspect of understanding a Fano absorption spectrum is presented in terms of the complex spectral analysis. The absorption spectrum of an impurity embedded in semi-infinite superlattice is investigated. The boundary condition on the continuum causes a large energy dependence of the self-energy, enhances the nonlinearity of the eigenvalue problem of the effective Hamiltonian, yielding several nonanalytic resonance states. The overall spectral features is perfectly reproduced by the direct transitions to these discrete resonance states. Even with a single optical transition path the spectrum exhibits an asymmetric Fano profile, which is enhanced for the transition to the nonanalytic resonance states. Since this is the genuine eigenstates of the total Hamiltonian, there is no ambiguity in the interpretation of the absorption spectrum, avoiding the arbitrary interpretation based on the quantum interference. The spectral change around the exceptional point is well understood when we extract the resonant state component.

Exact description of coalescing eigenstates in open quantum systems in terms of microscopic Hamiltonian dynamics

At the exceptional point where two eigenstates coalesce in open quantum systems, the usual diagonalization scheme breaks down and the Hamiltonian can only be reduced to Jordan block form. Most of the studies on the exceptional point appearing in the literature introduce a phenomenological effective Hamiltonian that essentially reduces the problem to that of a finite non-Hermitian matrix for which it is straightforward to obtain the Jordan form. In this paper, we demonstrate how the Hamiltonian of an open quantum system reduces to Jordan block form at an exceptional point in an exact manner that treats the continuum without any approximation. Our method relies on the Brillouin-Wigner-Feshbach projection method according to which we can obtain a finite dimensional effective Hamiltonian that shares the discrete sector of the spectrum with the original Hamiltonian. While owing to its eigenvalue dependence this effective Hamiltonian cannot be used to write the Jordan block directly, we show that by formally extending the problem to include eigenstates with complex eigenvalues that reside outside the usual Hilbert space, we can obtain the Jordan block form at the exceptional point without introducing any approximation. We also introduce an extended Jordan form basis away from the exceptional point, which provides an alternative way to obtain the Jordan block at an exceptional point. The extended Jordan block connects continuously to the Jordan block exactly at the exceptional point implying that the observable quantities are continuous at the exceptional point.

Higher-order Time-Symmetry-Breaking Phase Transition due to meeting of an Exceptional Point and Fano Resonance

We have theoretically investigated the time-symmetry breaking phase transition process for two discrete states coupled with a one-dimensional continuum by solving the nonlinear eigenvalue prob- lem for the effective Hamiltonian associated with the discrete spectrum. We obtain the effective Hamiltonian with use of the Feshbach-Brillouin-Wigner projection method. Strong energy depen- dence of the self-energy appearing in the effective Hamiltonian plays a key role in the time-symmetry breaking phase transition: as a result of competition in the decay process between the Van Hove singularity and the Fano resonance, the phase transition becomes a higher-order transition when both the two discrete states are located near the continuum threshold.

Microscopic Description of Quantum Lorentz Gas by Complex Spectral Representation of the Liouville-von Neumann Equation: A Limitation of the Boltzmann Approximation

Irreversible processes of one-dimensional quantum perfect Lorentz gas is studied on the basis of the fundamental laws of physics in terms of the complex spectral analysis associated with the resonance state of the Liouville-von Neumann operator. A limitation of the usual phenomenological Boltzmann equation is discussed from this dynamical point of view. For a Wigner distribution function that spreads over moderately small scale comparative to the mean-free-path, we found a shifting motion in space of the distribution that cannot be described by the hydrodynamic approximation of the kinetic equation. The mechanism of the shifting has two completely different origins: one is due to different value of the imaginary part of the eigenvalue of the Liouvillian and predominates in moderately small wavenumber associated to the spatial distribution, while the other is due to the existence of the real part of the eigenvalue associated to a wave propagation and predominates in moderately large wavenumber.

Non-divergent representation of non-Hermitian operator near the exceptional point with application to a quantum Lorentz gas

We propose a non-singular representation for a non-Hermitian operator even if the parameter space contains exceptional points (EPs), at which the operator cannot be diagonalized and the usual spectral representation ceases to exist. Our representation has a generalized Jordan block form and is written in terms of extended pseudo-eigenstates. Our method is free from a divergence in the spectral representation at EPs, at which multiple eigenvalues and eigenvectors coalesce and the eigenvectors cannot be normalized. Our representation improves the accuracy of numerical calculations of physical quantities near EPs. We also find that our method is applicable to various problems related to EPs in the parameter space of non-Hermitian operators. We demonstrate the usefulness of our representation by investigating Boltzmann's collision operator in a one-dimensional quantum Lorentz gas in the weak coupling approximation.

Band Structure and Accumulation Point in the Spectrum of Quantum Collision Operator in a One-Dimensional Molecular Chain

We consider the eigenvalue problem of a kinetic collision operator for a quantum Brownian particle interacting with a one-dimensional chain. The quantum nature of the system gives rise to a difference operator. For the one-dimensional case, the momentum space separates into infinite sets of disjoint subspaces dynamically independent of one another. The eigenvalue problem of the collision operator is solved with the continued fraction method. The spectrum is non-negative, possesses an accumulation point and exhibits a band structure. We also construct the eigenvectors of the collision operator and establish their completeness and orthogonality relations in each momentum subspaces.

Nonequilibrium Transport of Quantum Molecular Chain in terms of the Complex Liouvillian Spectrum

Transport process in molecular chain in nonequilibrium stationary state is theoretically investigated. The molecule is interacting at its both ends with thermal baths which has different temperatures, while no dissipation mechanism is contained inside the molecular chain. We have first obtained the nonequilibrium stationary state outside the Hilbert space in terms of the complex spectral representation of Liouvillian. The nonequilibrium stationary state is obtained as an eigenstate of the Liouvillian which is constructed through the collision invariant of the kinetic equation. The eigenstate of the Liouvillian contains an information of spatial correlation between the molecular chain and the thermal baths. While energy flow in the nonequilibrium state which is due to the first order correlation can be described by Landauer formula, the particle current due to the second order correlation cannot be described by the Landauer formula. The present method provides a simple and perspective way to evaluate the energy transport of molecular chain under the nonequilibrium situation.

Hall Effect and Resistivity in High-Tc Superconductors: The Conserving Approximation

The Hall coefficient (R_H) of high-Tc cuprates in the normal state shows the striking non-Fermi liquid behavior: R_H follows a Curie-Weiss type temperature dependence, and |R_H|>>1/|ne| at low temperatures in the under-doped compounds. Moreover, R_H is positive for hole-doped compounds and is negative for electron-doped ones, although each of them has a similar hole-like Fermi surface. In this paper, we give the explanation of this long-standing problem from the standpoint of the nearly antiferromagnetic (AF) Fermi liquid. We consider seriously the vertex corrections for the current which are indispensable to satisfy the conservation laws, which are violated within the conventional Boltzmann transport approximation. The obtained total current J_k takes an enhanced value and is no more perpendicular to the Fermi surface due to the strong AF fluctuations. By virtue of this mechanism, the anomalous behavior of R_H in high-Tc cuprates is neutrally explained. We find that both the temperature and the (electron, or hole) doping dependences of R_H in high-T_c cuprates are reproduced well by numerical calculations based on the fluctuation-exchange (FLEX) approximation, applied to the single-band Hubbard model. We also discuss the temperature dependence of R_H in other nearly AF metals, e.g., V_2O_3, kappa-BEDT-TTF organic superconductors, and heavy fermion systems close to the AF phase boundary.

Theory of Hall Effect and Electrical Transport in High-Tc Cuprates: Effects of Antiferromagnetic Spin Fluctuations

In the normal state of high-Tc cuprates, the Hall coefficient shows remarkable temperature dependence, and its absolute value is enhanced in comparison with that value simply estimated on the basis of band structure. It has been recognized that this temperature dependence of the Hall coefficient is due to highly anisotropic quasiparticle damping rate on the Fermi surface. In this paper we further take account of the vertex correction to the current vertex arising from quasiparticle interactions. Then the transport current is transformed to a large extent from the quasiparticle velocity, and is no longer proportional to the latter. As a consequence some pieces of the Fermi surface outside of the antiferromagnetic Brillouin zone make negative contribution to the Hall conductivity, even if the curvature of the Fermi surface is hole-like. The Hall coefficient is much larger at low temperatures than the estimate made without the vertex correction. Temperature dependence of the antiferromagnetic spin correlation length is also crucial to cause remarkable temperature dependence of the Hall coefficient. In our treatment the Hall coefficient of the electron-doped cuprates can be negative despite hole-like curvature of the Fermi surface.
