Symmetry Breaking in Quantum and Classical Open System Dynamics
In generic open quantum systems, universal dynamical processes tend to exhibit classicality - dissipation washes out quantum effects. Here I consider open quantum dynamics in the presence of a global U(1) symmetry. In mixed states, this symmetry can be either strong or weak, and distinct dynamical phases can be characterized by the spontaneous breaking of either symmetry. The strong-to-weak spontaneous symmetry breaking (SW-SSB) transition is characterized by various information theoretic quantities which are non-linear in the system’s mixed state density matrix. Within a Lindblad framework for U(1) dynamics, we show that a finite-time SW-SSB transition occurs in two and three dimension, whereas in one dimension the correlation length grows linearly with time and diverges only in the infinite-time steady state. Moreover, with carefully chosen Lindblad dynamics, the SW-SSB transition signals a finite time breakdown of quantum dynamics, giving rise to classical dynamics described by a stochastic Langevin equation (Model F of Halperin- Hohenberg). When the weak symmetry is spontaneously broken, the system enters a superfluid state with classical hydrodynamics.

Recent Progress on the Theory of the 2DES at larger r_s
Theoretical and experimental studies of two-dimensional electron systems (2DES) have played a pivotal role in the history of quantum condensed matter physics. It involves old, and much-studied issues, about which much is known. But then again, Steve Girvin is not so young, nor am I. In this talk, I will describe some new results obtained by some brilliant collaborators of mine concerning the quantum phases of the 2DES at large and intermediate values of rs, where rs is the Wigner-Seitz radius of the 2DES in units of the effective Bohr radius. I will also allude to some still unresolved oldy but goody puzzles – e.g. the existence of an “apparent” metal-insulator transition in 2D – and some new results – e.g. STM images of such systems – that may make the topic seem a bit less geriatric at present.

How might quantum platforms reshape many body physics?
Quantum platforms are nearing a scale where they will allow the realization of a vast number of quantum circuits. Some of these will solve computational problems of interest to industry and commerce, others will answer questions about quantum systems that we normally ask. But this will still leave much room for searching for entirely new quantum phenomena. In this talk I will describe some thinking on one concrete possibility - that of looking for quantum Nash equilibria-and on a general method for using these platforms in "discovery mode" much like the use of particle accelerators for discovering new particle physics.

Ultra-cold Atoms as a Kind of Condensed Matter System
Gases of ultracold atoms share some of the properties of electrons in solids. Optical lattices influence such atoms in much the same way as crystal lattices do electrons. The atomic systems offer opportunities for measurement and control that are not available in solids, leading to surprising behavior even in elementary systems. Some phenomena that are difficult or impossible to study in solid systems are easy to realize in atomic systems. Simple, yet calculationally intractable, models for the behavior of condensed systems can be realized in atomic systems, which then act as quantum simulators of condensed matter models. Some cold atom systems have no analogous counterpart in condensed matter. This talk will describe some of these features of ultracold atomic gases, which provide not only an important complement to traditional methods for studying solids, but also represent an entirely new form of condensed matter.
