In this paper, we employ the energy surface method to study a system of a two-level atom Bose–Einstein condensate coupled to a high-finesse optical cavity interacting with a single-mode electromagnetic field in the presence of the Stark-shift. The energy surface, the Phase transitions and the Berry phase of the two-level atom in Dicke model are obtained. Employing the Holstein–Primakoff representation of the angular momentum Lie algebra, the coupling line separation of the normal phase and the superradiant phase which occurs in a collection of fluorescent emitters (such as atoms), between a state containing few electromagnetic excitations are studied and a mean field description of the Dicke model is presented. We notice that in the thermodynamic limit, the energy surface takes a simple form for a direct description of the phase transition. Moreover, we show that the Stark-shift parameters and the atom–atom interactions can strongly affect the phase transition point. The results in the absence of the Stark-shift agree precisely with those obtained by Li, Liu and Zhou, who studied the same model using a different method.

The Dicke model with a weak dissipation channel is realized by coupling a Bose–Einstein condensate to an optical cavity with ultranarrow bandwidth. We explore the dynamical critical properties of the Hepp–Lieb–Dicke phase transition by performing quenches across the phase boundary. We observe hysteresis in the transition between a homogeneous phase and a self-organized collective phase with an enclosed loop area showing power-law scaling with respect to the quench time, which suggests an interpretation within a general framework introduced by Kibble and Zurek. The observed hysteretic dynamics is well reproduced by numerically solving the mean-field equation derived from a generalized Dicke Hamiltonian. Our work promotes the understanding of nonequilibrium physics in open many-body systems with infinite range interactions.

The problem of a two-level atom interacting with single mode cavity field is considered, however, the optical cavity is filled with new structure of a generalized nonlinear Stark shift via Ξ configuration. One starts with a three-level trapped atom interacting with the quantized field of center of mass motion thus a Hamiltonian for one-phonon process with nonlinearities is derived. Through the elimination of the intermediate level by using the adiabatic elimination method, we generate a new structure of effective Hamiltonian for a two-level atom with a nonlinear Stark shift. The temporal evolution of the atomic inversion is studied, we introduce that in the presence of the Stark shift parameter the atom leaves in a maximal entangled sate. We use the von Neuman entropy to measure the degree of entanglement between the atom and the field. After adding the nonlinear Stark shift the system never reaches the pure state. Also we study the Q-function for obtaining more information in phase space for this system. These aspects are sensitive to changes in the Stark shift parameter. The results shows that the effect of the nonlinearity in the Stark shift changes the quasiperiod of the field entropy and hence the entanglement between the particle and the field.

We study the nonlinear quantum master equation describing a laser under the mean field approximation. The quantum system is formed by a single mode optical cavity and two level atoms, which interact with reservoirs. Namely, we establish the existence and uniqueness of the regular solution to the nonlinear operator equation under consideration, as well as we get a probabilistic representation for this solution in terms of a mean field stochastic Schrödinger equation. To this end, we find a regular solution for the nonautonomous linear quantum master equation in Gorini–Kossakowski–Sudarshan–Lindblad form, and we prove the uniqueness of the solution to the nonautonomous linear adjoint quantum master equation in Gorini–Kossakowski–Sudarshan–Lindblad form. Moreover, we obtain rigorously the Maxwell–Bloch equations from the mean field laser equation.
