Abstract:
The distribution of Lee-Yang zeros not only matters in thermodynamics and quantum mechanics, but also in mathematics. Hereby we propose a nonlinear quantum toy model and discuss the distribution of corresponding Lee-Yang zeros. Utilizing the coupling between a probe qubit and the nonlinear system, all Lee-Yang zeros can be detected in the dynamics of the probe qubit by tuning the coupling strength and linear coefficient of the nonlinear system. Moreover, the analytical expression of the quantum Fisher information matrix at the Lee-Yang zeros is provided and an interesting phenomenon is discovered. Both the coupling strength and temperature can simultaneously attain their precision limits at the Lee-Yang zeros. However, the probe qubit cannot work as a thermometer at a Lee-Yang zero if it sits on the unit circle.
