abstract

The open quantum Rabi model describes a two-level system coupled to a harmonic oscillator. A Gaussian phase transition for the nonequilibrium steady states has been predicted when the bosonic mode is soft and subject to damping. We show that oscillator dephasing is a relevant perturbation, which leads to a non-Gaussian phase transition and an intriguing cascade of instabilities for $k$-th order bosonic operators, as well as a jump in the steady-state qubit polarization. For the soft-mode limit, the equations of motion form a closed hierarchy and spectral properties can be efficiently studied. To this purpose, we establish a fruitful connection to non-Hermitian Hamiltonians. The results for the phase diagram, stability boundaries, and relevant observables are based on mean-field analysis, exact diagonalization, perturbation theory, and Keldysh field theory.

Quantum Dynamics of Interacting dissipative oscillators: A novel scheme

quant-ph · 2026-05-23 · unverdicted · novelty 3.0

A theoretical scheme using Bogoliubov transformations shows that off-resonance energies in driven coupled oscillators grow unbounded while on-resonance energies remain bounded and periodic, with explicit Husimi functions derived for coherent and number states.
