It has become common practice to model large spin ensembles as an effective pseudospin with total angular momentum J = N x j, where j is the spin per particle. Such approaches (at least implicitly) restrict the quantum state of the ensemble to the so-called symmetric Hilbert space. Here, we argue that symmetric states are not generally well-preserved under the type of decoherence typical of experiments involving large clouds of atoms or ions. In particular, symmetric states are rapidly degraded under models of decoherence that act identically but locally on the different members of the ensemble. Using an approach [Phys. Rev. A 78, 052101 (2008)] that is not limited to the symmetric Hilbert space, we explore potential pitfalls in the design and interpretation of experiments on spin-squeezing and collective atomic phenomena when the properties of the symmetric states are extended to systems where they do not apply.

The system of ultracold atoms with hyperfine spin $F=3/2$ might be unstable against the formation of quintet pairs if the interaction is attractive in the quintet channel. We have investigated the behavior of correlation functions in a model including only s-wave interactions at quarter filling by large-scale density-matrix renormalization-group simulations. We show that the correlations of quintet pairs become quasi-long-ranged, when the system is partially polarized, leading to the emergence of various mixed superfluid phases in which BCS-like pairs carrying different magnetic moment coexist.
We formulate entropic measurements uncertainty relations (MURs) for a spin-1/2 system. When incompatible observables are approximatively jointly measured, we use relative entropy to quantify the information lost in approximation and we prove positive lower bounds for such a loss: there is an unavoidable information loss. Firstly we allow only for covariant approximate joint measurements and we find state-dependent MURs for two or three orthogonal spin-1/2 components. Secondly we consider any possible approximate joint measurement and we find state-independent MURs for two or three spin-1/2 components. In particular we study how MURs depend on the angle between two spin directions. Finally, we extend our approach to infinitely many incompatible observables, namely to the spin components in all possible directions. In every scenario, we always consider also the characterization of the optimal approximate joint measurements.
Ground state criticality of many-body systems is a resource for quantum enhanced sensing, namely Heisenberg precision limit, provided that one has access to the whole system. We show that for partial accessibility the sensing capacity of a block in the ground state reduces to sub-Heisenberg limit. To compensate for this, we drive the system periodically and use the local steady state for quantum sensing. Remarkably, the steady state sensing shows a significant enhancement in its precision in comparison with the ground state and even shows super-Heisenberg scaling for a certain range of frequencies. The origin of this precision enhancement is found to be the closing of the Floquet gap. This is in close correspondence with the role of the vanishing energy gap at criticality for quantum enhanced ground state sensing with global accessibility.
Superintegrable systems on a symplectic manifold conventionally are considered. However, their definition implies a rather restrictive condition 2n=k+m where 2n is a dimension of a symplectic manifold, k is a dimension of a pointwise Lie algebra of a superintegrable system, and m is its corank. To solve this problem, we aim to consider partially superintegrable systems on Poisson manifolds where k+m is the rank of a compatible Poisson structure. The according extensions of the Mishchenko-Fomenko theorem on generalized action-angle coordinates is formulated.
When the dynamics of a spin ensemble are expressible solely in terms of symmetric processes and collective spin operators, the symmetric collective states of the ensemble are preserved. These many-body states, which are invariant under particle relabeling, can be efficiently simulated since they span a subspace whose dimension is linear in the number of spins. However, many open system dynamics break this symmetry, most notably when ensemble members undergo identical, but local, decoherence. In this paper, we extend the definition of symmetric collective states of an ensemble of spin-1/2 particles in order to efficiently describe these more general collective processes. The corresponding collective states span a subspace which grows quadratically with the number of spins. We also derive explicit formulae for expressing arbitrary identical, local decoherence in terms of these states.
