Transition between dissipatively stabilized helical states

We analyze a XXZ spin-1/2 chain which is driven dissipatively at its boundaries. The dissipative driving is modeled by Lindblad jump operators which only act on both boundary spins. In the limit of large dissipation, we find that the boundary spins are pinned to a certain value and at special values...
