The temperatures of two copies of a quantum dot, one initially hotter than the other, can cross each other at some finite time and reverse their identities, the first such prediction in a quantum regime.

We explore the role of exceptional points and complex eigenvalues on the occurrence of the quantum Mpemba effect. To this end, we study a two-level driven dissipative system subjected to an oscillatory electric field and dissipative coupling with the environment. We find that both exceptional points and complex eigenvalues can lead to multiple quantum Mpemba effect. It occurs in an observable when time-evolved copies corresponding to two different initial conditions, one initially having higher

Out-of-time-ordered correlators (OTOCs) have been extensively used as a major tool for exploring quantum chaos, and recently there has been a classical analog. Studies have been limited to closed systems. In this work, we probe an open classical many-body system, more specifically, a spatially extended driven dissipative chain of coupled Duffing oscillators using the classical OTOC to investigate the spread and growth (decay) of an initially localized perturbation in the chain. Correspondingly,

Driven particles in the presence of crowded environment, obstacles, or kinetic constraints often exhibit negative differential mobility (NDM) due to their decreased dynamical activity. Based on the empirical studies of conserved lattice gas model, two species exclusion model and other interacting particle systems we propose a new mechanism for complex many-particle systems where slowing down of certain non-driven degrees of freedom by the external field can give rise to NDM. To prove that the sl

We introduce an assisted exchange model (AEM) on a one-dimensional periodic lattice with $(K+1)$ different species of hardcore particles, where the exchange rate depends on the pair of particles which undergo exchange and their immediate left neighbor. We show that this stochastic process has a pair-factorized steady state for a broad class of exchange dynamics and calculate particle current and spatial correlations analytically for any $K>0$ using a transfer matrix formalism. Interestingly,

We study a class of nonequilibrium lattice models on a ring where particles hop in a particular direction, from a site to one of its (say, right) nearest neighbors, with a rate that depends on the occupation of all the neighboring sites within a range R. This finite-range process (FRP) for R=0 reduces to the well-known zero-range process (ZRP), giving rise to a factorized steady state (FSS) for any arbitrary hop rate. We show that, provided the hop rates satisfy a specific condition, the steady

We analyze the cluster formation in a non-ergodic stochastic system as a result of counter-flow, with the aid of an exactly solvable model. To illustrate the clustering, a two species asymmetric simple exclusion process with impurities on a periodic lattice is considered, where the impurity can activate flips between the two non-conserved species. Exact analytical results, supported by Monte Carlo simulations, show two distinct phases, free flowing phase and clustering phase. The clustering phas

We introduce and solve exactly a class of interacting particle systems in one dimension where particles hop asymmetrically. In its simplest form, namely asymmetric zero range process (AZRP), particles hop on a one dimensional periodic lattice with asymmetric hop rates; the rates for both right and left moves depend only on the occupation at the departure site but their functional forms are different. We show that AZRP leads to a factorized steady state (FSS) when its rate-functions satisfy certa

In reconstituting k-mer models, extended objects that occupy several sites on a one-dimensional lattice undergo directed or undirected diffusion, and reconstitute-when in contact-by transferring a single monomer unit from one k-mer to the other; the rates depend on the size of participating k-mers. This polydispersed system has two conserved quantities, the number of k-mers and the packing fraction. We provide a matrix product method to write the steady state of this model and to calculate the s

We construct matrix product steady state for a class of interacting particle systems where particles do not obey hardcore exclusion, meaning each site can occupy any number of particles subjected to the global conservation of total number of particles in the system. To represent the arbitrary occupancy of the sites, the matrix product ansatz here requires an infinite set of matrices which in turn leads to an algebra involving infinite number of matrix equations. We show that these matrix equatio

We obtain an exact matrix product steady state for a class of multi species asymmetric simple exclusion process with impurities, under periodic boundary condition. Alongside the usual hopping dynamics, an additional flip dynamics is activated only in the presence of impurities. Although the microscopic dynamics renders the system to be non-ergodic, exact analytical results for observables are obtained in steady states for a specific class of initial configurations.
