Despite the nonequilibrium nature of the laser, the Landau theory of thermal phase transitions, applied directly to the Scully-Lamb laser model (SLLM), indicates that the laser threshold is a second-order phase transition, associated with a $U(1)$ spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB).

Here, by considering the full quantum dynamics of a quadratic Liouvillian superoperator, we introduce a simple and effective method for engineering NHHs with high-order quantum EPs, derived from evolution matrices of system operators moments.

We introduce a protocol to transfer excitations between two noninteracting qubits via purely dissipative processes (i. e., in the Lindblad master equation there is no coherent interaction between the qubits).
