Equilibrium topological phases are robust against weak static disorder but may break down in the strong disorder regime. Here we explore the stability of the quench-induced emergent dynamical topology in the presence of dynamical noise. We develop an analytic theory and show that for weak noise, the quantum dynamics induced by quenching an initial trivial phase to Chern insulating regime exhibits robust emergent topology on certain momentum subspaces called band inversion surfaces (BISs). The dynamical topology is protected by the minimal oscillation frequency over the BISs, mimicking a bulk gap of the dynamical phase. Singularities emerge in the quench dynamics, with the minimal oscillation frequency vanishing on the BISs if increasing noise to critical strength, manifesting a dynamical topological transition, beyond which the emergent topology breaks down. Two types of dynamical transitions are predicted. Interestingly, we predict a sweet spot in the critical transition when noise couples to all three spin components in the same strength, in which case the dynamical topology survives at arbitrarily strong noise regime. This work unveils novel features of the dynamical topology under dynamical noise, which can be probed with control in experiment.

Although fragile topology has been intensely studied in static crystals, it is not clear how to generalize the concept to dynamical systems. In this work, we generalize the concept of fragile topology, and provide a definition of fragile topology for
noninteracting Floquet crystals, which we refer to as dynamical fragile topology. In contrast to the static fragile topology defined for Wannier obstruction, dynamical fragile topology is defined for the nontrivial quantum dynamics characterized by obstruction to static limits (OTSL). Specifically, OTSL of a Floquet crystal is fragile if and only if the OTSL disappears after adding a symmetry-preserving static Hamiltonian in a direct-sum way preserving the relevant gaps (RGs). We further present a concrete 2+1D example for dynamical fragile topology, based on a slight modification of the model in [Rudner et al, Phys. Rev. X 3, 031005 (2013)]. The fragile OTSL in the 2+1D example exhibits anomalous chiral edge modes for a natural open boundary condition, and does not require any crystalline symmetries besides lattice translations. Our work paves the way to study fragile topology for general quantum dynamics.
Superconducting circuits provide a new platform to study nonstationary cavity QED phenomena. An example of such a phenomenon is a dynamical Lamb effect which is a parametric excitation of an atom due to the nonadiabatic modulation of its Lamb shift.
This effect has been initially introduced for a natural atom in a varying cavity, while we suggested its realization in a superconducting qubit-cavity system with dynamically tunable coupling. In the present paper, we study the interplay between the dynamical Lamb effect and the energy dissipation, which is unavoidable in realistic systems. We find that despite of naive expectations this interplay can lead to unexpected dynamical regimes. One of the most striking results is that photon generation from vacuum can be strongly enhanced due to the qubit relaxation, which opens a new channel for such a process. We also show that dissipation in the cavity can increase the qubit excited state population. Our results can be used for the experimental observation and investigation of the dynamical Lamb effect and accompanying quantum effects.
We observe the suppression of the finite frequency shot-noise produced by a voltage biased tunnel junction due to its interaction with a single electromagnetic mode of high impedance. The tunnel junction is embedded in a quarter wavelength resonator
containing a dense SQUID array providing it with a characteristic impedance in the kOhms range and a resonant frequency tunable in the 4-6 GHz range. Such high impedance gives rise to a sizeable Coulomb blockade on the tunnel junction (roughly 30% reduction in the differential conductance) and allows an efficient measurement of the spectral density of the current fluctuations at the resonator frequency. The observed blockade of shot-noise is found in agreement with an extension of the dynamical Coulomb blockade theory.
Dynamical magnetic impurities (MI) are considered as a possible origin for suppression of the ballistic helical transport on edges of 2D topological insulators. The MIs provide a spin-flip backscattering of itinerant helical electrons. Such a backsca
ttering reduces the ballistic conductance if the exchange interaction between the MI and the electrons is anisotropic and the Kondo screening is unimportant. It is well-known that the isotropic MIs do not suppress the helical transport in systems with axial spin symmetry of the electrons. We show that, if this symmetry is broken, the isotropic MI acquires an effective anisotropy and suppresses the helical conductance. The peculiar underlying mechanism is a successive backscattering of the electrons which propagate in the same direction and have different energies. The respective correction to the linear conductance is determined by the allowed phase space of the electrons and scales with temperature as T^4. Hence, it disappears at small temperatures. This qualitatively distinguishes effects governed by the MIs with the induced and bare anisotropy; the latter is temperature independent. If T is smaller than the applied bias, finite e V, the allowed phase space is provided by the bias and the differential conductance scales as (e V)^4.
In recent experiments, time-dependent periodic fields are used to create exotic topological phases of matter with potential applications ranging from quantum transport to quantum computing. These nonequilibrium states, at high driving frequencies, ex
hibit the quintessential robustness against local disorder similar to equilibrium topological phases. However, proving the existence of such topological phases in a general setting is an open problem. We propose a universal effective theory that leverages on modern free probability theory and ideas in random matrices to analytically predict the existence of the topological phase for finite driving frequencies and across a range of disorder. We find that, depending on the strength of disorder, such systems may be topological or trivial and that there is a transition between the two. In particular, the theory predicts the critical point for the transition between the two phases and provides the critical exponents. We corroborate our results by comparing them to exact diagonalizations for driven-disordered 1D Kitaev chain and 2D Bernevig-Hughes-Zhang models and find excellent agreement. This Letter may guide the experimental efforts for exploring topological phases.
