Abstract

Synchronization is a widespread phenomenon in science and technology. Here, we study noise-induced synchronization in a quantum spin chain subjected to local Gaussian white noise. We demonstrate stable (anti)synchronization between the endpoint magnetizations of a quantum XY model with transverse field of arbitrary length. Remarkably, we show that noise applied to a single spin suffices to reach stable (anti)synchronization, and find that the two synchronized end spins are entangled. We additionally determine the optimal noise amplitude that leads to the fastest synchronization along the chain, and further compare the optimal synchronization speed to the fundamental Lieb-Robinson bound for information propagation.
