We study the non-integrable Dicke model, and its integrable approximation, the Tavis-Cummings model, as functions of both the coupling constant and the excitation energy. Excited-state quantum phase transitions (ESQPT) are found analyzing the density of states in the semi-classical limit and comparing it with numerical results for the quantum case in large Hilbert spaces, taking advantage of efficient methods recently developed. Two different ESQPTs are identified in both models, which are signaled as singularities in the semi-classical density of states, one {em static} ESQPT occurs for any coupling, whereas a dynamic ESQPT is observed only in the superradiant phase. The role of the unstable fixed points of the Hamiltonian semi-classical flux in the occurrence of the ESQPTs is discussed and determined. Numerical evidence is provided that shows that the semi-classical result describes very well the tendency of the quantum energy spectrum for any coupling in both models. Therefore the semi-classical density of states can be used to study the statistical properties of the fluctuation in the spectra, a study that is presented in a companion paper.

The non-integrable Dicke model and its integrable approximation, the Tavis-Cummings (TC) model, are studied as functions of both the coupling constant and the excitation energy. The present contribution extends the analysis presented in the previous
paper by focusing on the statistical properties of the quantum fluctuations in the energy spectrum and their relation with the excited state quantum phase transitions (ESQPT). These properties are compared with the dynamics observed in the semi-classica
Concentrating on bosonic lattice systems, we ask whether and how Excited State Quantum Phase Transition (ESQPT) singularities occur in condensed matter systems with ground state QPTs. We study in particular the spectral singularities above the ground
-state phase diagram of the boson Hubbard model. As a general prerequisite, we point out the analogy between ESQPTs and van Hove singularities (vHss).
The thermodynamical properties of a generalized Dicke model are calculated and related with the critical properties of its energy spectrum, namely the quantum phase transitions (QPT) and excited state quantum phase transitions (ESQPT). The thermal pr
operties are calculated both in the canonical and the microcanonical ensembles. The latter deduction allows for an explicit description of the relation between thermal and energy spectrum properties. While in an isolated system the subspaces with different pseudo spin are disconnected, and the whole energy spectrum is accesible, in the thermal ensamble the situation is radically different. The multiplicity of the lowest energy states for each pseudo spin completely dominates the thermal behavior, making the set of degenerate states with the smallest pseudo spin at a given energy the only ones playing a role in the thermal properties, making the positive energy states thermally inaccesible. Their quantum phase transitions, from a normal to a superradiant phase, are closely associated with the thermal transition. The other critical phenomena, the ESQPTs occurring at excited energies, have no manifestation in the thermodynamics, although their effects could be seen in finite sizes corrections. A new superradiant phase is found, which only exists in the generalized model, and can be relevant in finite size systems.
We study a system of a single qubit (or a few qubits) interacting with a soft-mode bosonic field. Considering an extended version of the Rabi model with both parity-conserving and parity-violating interactions, we disclose a complex arrangement of qu
antum phase transitions in the ground- and excited-state domains. An experimentally testable signature of some of these transitions is a dynamical stabilization of a fully factorized qubit-field state involving the field vacuum. It happens in the ultrastrong coupling regime where the superradiant field equilibrium is far from the vacuum state. The degree of stabilization varies abruptly with interaction parameters and increases with the softness of the field mode. We analyze semiclassical origins of these effects and show their connection to various forms of excited-state quantum phase transitions.
Coherent superposition states of a mesoscopic quantum object play a major role in our understanding of the quantum to classical boundary, as well as in quantum-enhanced metrology and computing. However, their practical realization and manipulation re
mains challenging, requiring a high degree of control of the system and its coupling to the environment. Here, we use dysprosium atoms - the most magnetic element in its ground state - to realize coherent superpositions between electronic spin states of opposite orientation, with a mesoscopic spin size J=8. We drive coherent spin states to quantum superpositions using non-linear light-spin interactions, observing a series of collapses and revivals of quantum coherence. These states feature highly non-classical behavior, with a sensitivity to magnetic fields enhanced by a factor 13.9(1.1) compared to coherent spin states - close to the Heisenberg limit 2J=16 - and an intrinsic fragility to environmental noise.
