We show that Gibbs states of non-homogeneous transverse Ising chains satisfy a emph{shielding} property. Namely, whatever the fields on each spin and exchange couplings between neighboring spins are, if the field in one particular site is null, the reduced states of the subchains to the right and to the left of this site are emph{exactly} the Gibbs states of each subchain alone. Therefore, even if there is a strong exchange coupling between the extremal sites of each subchain, the Gibbs states of the each subchain behave as if there is no interaction between them. In general, if a lattice can be divided into two disconnected regions separated by an interface of sites with zero applied field, we can guarantee a similar result only if the surface contains a single site. Already for an interface with two sites we show an example where the property does not hold. When it holds, however, we show that if a perturbation of the Hamiltonian parameters is done in one side of the lattice, the other side is completely unchanged, with regard to both its equilibrium state and dynamics.

When the reduced state of a many-body quantum system is independent of its remaining parts, we say it shows what has become known by shielding property. Under some assumptions, equilibrium states of quantum transverse Ising models do manifest such ph
enomenon. Namely, imagine a many-body quantum system described by a lattice in the presence of an external magnetic field. Suppose there exists a separating interface on this lattice splitting the system into two subsets such that they only interact one another through that interface. In addition, suppose also that the applied external magnetic field is null on the interface. The shielding property states that the reduced state of the set in one side of the interface has no dependence on the Hamiltonian parameters of the set in the other side. This statement was proved in [N. Moller et al, PRE 97, 032101 (2018)] for the case where there is only one site in the interface. For lattices with more sites in the interface, it was conjectured that the shielding property is true when the system is in the ground state. For the case of positive temperatures, it does not hold and there are counterexamples to show that. Here we show that the conjecture does hold true for ground states, but under an additional condition. This condition is met, in particular, if the Hamiltonian terms associated to the interface are frustration-free.
We address the problem of heat transport in a chain of coupled quantum harmonic oscillators, exposed to the influences of local environments of various nature, stressing the effects that the specific nature of the environment has on the phenomenology
of the transport process. We study in detail the behavior of thermodynamically relevant quantities such as heat currents and mean energies of the oscillators, establishing rigorous analytical conditions for the existence of a steady state, whose features we analyse carefully. In particular we assess the conditions that should be faced to recover trends reminiscent of the classical Fourier law of heat conduction and highlight how such a possibility depends on the environment linked to our system.
We investigate the steady state properties arising from the open system dynamics described by a memoryless (Markovian) quantum collision model, corresponding to a master equation in the ultra-strong coupling regime. By carefully assessing the work co
st of switching on and off the system-environment interaction, we show that only a coupling Hamiltonian in the energy-preserving form drives the system to thermal equilibrium, while any other interaction leads to non-equilibrium steady states that are supported by steady-state currents. These currents provide a neat exemplification of the housekeeping work and heat. Furthermore, we characterize the specific form of system-environment interaction that drives the system to a steady-state exhibiting coherence in the energy eigenbasis, thus, giving rise to families of states that are non-passive.
We prove that the 2D Ising model is complete in the sense that the partition function of any classical q-state spin model (on an arbitrary graph) can be expressed as a special instance of the partition function of a 2D Ising model with complex inhomo
geneous couplings and external fields. In the case where the original model is an Ising or Potts-type model, we find that the corresponding 2D square lattice requires only polynomially more spins w.r.t the original one, and we give a constructive method to map such models to the 2D Ising model. For more general models the overhead in system size may be exponential. The results are established by connecting classical spin models with measurement-based quantum computation and invoking the universality of the 2D cluster states.
The measure of quantum entanglement is determined for any dimer, either ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic, spin-1/2 Heisenberg systems in the presence of external magnetic field. The physical quantity proposed as a measure of thermal quantum entangl
ement is the distance between states defined through the Hilbert-Schmidt norm. It has been shown that for ferromagnetic systems there is no entanglement at all. However, although under applied magnetic field, antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 dimers exhibit entanglement for temperatures below the decoherence temperature -- the one above which the entanglement vanishes. In addition to that, the decoherence temperature shows to be proportional to the exchange coupling constant and independent on the applied magnetic field, consequently, the entanglement may not be destroyed by external magnetic fields -- the phenomenon of {it magnetic shielding effect of quantum entanglement states}. This effect is discussed for the binuclear nitrosyl iron complex [Fe$_2$(SC$_3$H$_5$N$_2$)$_2$(NO)$_4$] and it is foreseen that the quantum entanglement survives even under high magnetic fields of Tesla orders of magnitude.
