Observation of a phase transition from a continuous to a discrete time crystal Rep. Prog. Phys. (IF 19.0) Pub Date : 2024-07-25 Phatthamon Kongkhambut, Jayson G Cosme, Jim Skulte, Michelle A Moreno Armijos, Ludwig Mathey, Andreas Hemmerich and Hans Keßler
Discrete (DTCs) and continuous time crystals (CTCs) are novel dynamical many-body states, that are characterized by robust self-sustained oscillations, emerging via spontaneous breaking of discrete or continuous time translation symmetry. DTCs are periodically driven systems that oscillate with a subharmonic of the external drive, while CTCs are continuously driven and oscillate with a frequency intrinsic

Analyzing Quantum Entanglement with the Schmidt Decomposition in Operator Space Phys. Rev. Lett. (IF 8.1) Pub Date : 2024-07-26 Chengjie Zhang, Sophia Denker, Ali Asadian, Otfried Gühne
Characterizing entanglement is central for quantum information science. Special observables which indicate entanglement, so-called entanglement witnesses, are a widely used tool for this task. The construction of these witnesses typically relies on the observation that quantum states with a high fidelity to some entangled target state are entangled, too. We introduce a general method to construct entanglement
