Liouvillian Non-Invertible Symmetry

arXiv:2610.23111v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Non-invertible symmetries extend conventional symmetries beyond group-like transformations and play an important role in quantum field theory and many-body physics. However, a general framework of non-invertible symmetries in open quantum systems is still lacking. Here, we formulate a general Liouville-space duality framework that extends Hilbert-space non-invertible dualities to open quantum systems. The resulting defect relates Liouvillians with dual Hamiltonian and dissipative parameters and becomes an exact symmetry at self-duality. We apply this framework to the periodic transverse-field Ising chain with two collective Lindblad channels exchanged by Kramers--Wannier (KW) duality. A strong $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry divides Liouville space into four parity sectors, while the defect acts nontrivially only in the even-even sector. At self-duality, the KW defect imposes a momentum-resolved selection rule on Liouvillian Jordan blocks. Modes with different Liouville momenta or KW-defect eigenvalues cannot form a common exceptional Jordan block. For a three-site chain, a global R\'enyi-2 KW asymmetry dynamically identifies the self-dual conditions. At the same time, the spectral structure exhibits both a semisimple degeneracy and a self-dual exceptional point with a perturbation-selective response. These results extend non-invertible dualities to Markovian quantum dynamics and establish a symmetry-based selection rule for Liouvillian Jordan structures.
