Classical phase space crystals in an open environment

It was recently discovered that a crystalline many-body state can exist in the phase space of a closed dynamical system. A phase space crystal can be an anomalous Chern insulator that supports chiral topological transport without breaking physical time-reversal symmetry [L. Guo et al., Phys. Rev. B 105, 094301(2022)]. In this work, we further study the effects of an open dissipative environment with thermal noise and identify the existence condition of classical phase space crystals in realistic scenarios. By defining a crystal order parameter, we plot the phase diagram in the parameter space of dissipation rate, interaction, and temperature. Our present work paves the way to realize phase space crystals and explore anomalous chiral transport in experiments.
