Topological phases exhibit a plethora of striking phenomena including disorder-robust localization and propagation of waves of various nature. Of special interest are the transitions between the different topological phases which are typically controlled by the external parameters. In contrast, in this Letter, we predict the topological transition in the two-particle interacting system driven by the particles quantum statistics. As a toy model, we investigate an extended one-dimensional Hubbard model with two anyonic excitations obeying fractional quantum statistics in-between bosons and fermions. As we demonstrate, the interplay of two-particle interactions and tunneling processes enables topological edge states of anyon pairs whose existence and localization at one or another edge of the one-dimensional system is governed by the quantum statistics of particles. Since a direct realization of the proposed system is challenging, we develop a rigorous method to emulate the eigenmodes and eigenenergies of anyon pairs with resonant electric circuits.

We consider the Szegedy walk on graphs adding infinite length tails to a finite internal graph. We assume that on these tails, the dynamics is given by the free quantum walk. We set the $ell^infty$-category initial state so that the internal graph re
ceives time independent input from the tails, say $boldsymbol{alpha}_{in}$, at every time step. We show that the response of the Szegedy walk to the input, which is the output, say $boldsymbol{beta}_{out}$, from the internal graph to the tails in the long time limit, is drastically changed depending on the reversibility of the underlying random walk. If the underlying random walk is reversible, we have $boldsymbol{beta}_{out}=mathrm{Sz}(boldsymbol{m}_{delta E})boldsymbol{alpha}_{in}$, where the unitary matrix $mathrm{Sz}(boldsymbol{m}_{delta E})$ is the reflection matrix to the unit vector $boldsymbol{m}_{delta E}$ which is determined by the boundary of the internal graph $delta E$. Then the global dynamics so that the internal graph is regarded as one vertex recovers the local dynamics of the Szegedy walk in the long time limit. Moreover if the underlying random walk of the Szegedy walk is reversible, then we obtain that the stationary state is expressed by a linear combination of the reversible measure and the electric current on the electric circuit determined by the internal graph and the random walks reversible measure. On the other hand, if the underlying random walk is not reversible, then the unitary matrix is just a phase flip; that is, $boldsymbol{beta}_{out}=-boldsymbol{alpha}_{in}$, and the stationary state is similar to the current flow but satisfies a different type of the Kirchhoff laws.
As the dimensions of physical systems approach the nanoscale, the laws of thermodynamics must be reconsidered due to the increased importance of fluctuations and quantum effects. While the statistical mechanics of small classical systems is relativel
y well understood, the quantum case still poses challenges. Here we set up a formalism that allows to calculate the full probability distribution of energy exchanges between a periodically driven quantum system and a thermalized heat reservoir. The formalism combines Floquet theory with a generalized master equation approach. For a driven two-level system and in the long-time limit, we obtain a universal expression for the distribution, providing clear physical insight into the exchanged energy quanta. We illustrate our approach in two analytically solvable cases and discuss the differences in the corresponding distributions. Our predictions could be directly tested in a variety of systems, including optical cavities and solid-state devices.
Unveiling the impact in thermodynamics of the phenomena specific to quantum mechanics is a crucial step to identify fundamental costs for quantum operations and quantum advantages in heat engines. We propose a two-reservoir setup to detect the quantu
m component in the heat flow exchanged by a coherently driven atom with its thermal environment. Tuning the driving parameters switches on and off the quantum and classical contributions to the heat flows, enabling their independent characterization. We demonstrate the feasibility of the measurement in a circuit-QED setup. Our results pave the road towards the first experimental verification of this quantum thermodynamic signature ubiquitous in quantum technologies.
Continuously monitoring the environment of a quantum many-body system reduces the entropy of (purifies) the reduced density matrix of the system, conditional on the outcomes of the measurements. We show that, for mixed initial states, a balanced comp
etition between measurements and entangling interactions within the system can result in a dynamical purification phase transition between (i) a phase that locally purifies at a constant system-size-independent rate, and (ii) a mixed phase where the purification time diverges exponentially in the system size. The residual entropy density in the mixed phase implies the existence of a quantum error-protected subspace where quantum information is reliably encoded against the future non-unitary evolution of the system. We show that these codes are of potential relevance to fault-tolerant quantum computation as they are often highly degenerate and satisfy optimal tradeoffs between encoded information densities and error thresholds. In spatially local models in 1+1 dimensions, this phase transition for mixed initial states occurs concurrently with a recently identified class of entanglement phase transitions for pure initial states. The mutual information of an initially completely-mixed state in 1+1 dimensions grows sublinearly in time due to the formation of the error protected subspace. The purification transition studied here also generalizes to systems with long-range interactions, where conventional notions of entanglement transitions have to be reformulated. Purification dynamics is likely a more robust probe of the transition in experiments, where imperfections generically reduce entanglement and drive the system towards mixed states. We describe the motivations for studying this novel class of non-equilibrium quantum dynamics in the context of advanced quantum computing platforms and fault-tolerant quantum computation.
Superconducting circuits have become a leading quantum technology for testing fundamentals of quantum mechanics and for the implementation of advanced quantum information protocols. In this chapter, we revise the basic concepts of circuit network the
ory and circuit quantum electrodynamics for the sake of digital and analog quantum simulations of quantum field theories, relativistic quantum mechanics, and many-body physics, involving fermions and bosons. Based on recent improvements in scalability, controllability, and measurement, superconducting circuits can be considered as a promising quantum platform for building scalable digital and analog quantum simulators, enjoying unique and distinctive properties when compared to other advanced platforms as trapped ions, quantum photonics and optical lattices.
