Evolutionary games of condensates in coupled birth-death processes — •Johannes Knebel, Markus F. Weber, Torben Krüger, and Erwin Frey — Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, München, Deutschland

Condensation phenomena occur in many systems, both in classical and quantum mechanical contexts. Typically, the entities that constitute a system collectively concentrate in one or multiple states during condensation. For example, particular strategies are selected in zero-sum games, which are generalizations of the children's game Rock-Paper-Scissors. These winning strategies can be identified with condensates.

In our work, we apply the theory of evolutionary zero-sum games to explain condensation in bosonic systems when quantum coherence is negligible. Only recently has it been shown that a driven-dissipative gas of bosons may condense not only into a single, but also into multiple non-degenerate states. This phenomenon may occur when a system of non-interacting bosons is weakly coupled to a reservoir and is driven by an external time-periodic force (Floquet system). On a mathematical level, this condensation is described by the same coupled birth-death processes that govern the dynamics of evolutionary zero-sum games. We illuminate the physical principles underlying the condensation and find that the vanishing of relative entropy production determines the condensates. Condensation proceeds exponentially fast, but the system of condensates never comes to rest: The occupation numbers of condensates oscillate, which we demonstrate for a Rock-Paper-Scissors game of condensates.
