Popis: | Topological characteristics in quantum systems typically determine the ground state, while the corresponding quantum phase transition (QPT) can be identified through quenching dynamics. Based on the exact results of extended Kitaev chains, we demonstrate that the system dynamics can be comprehended through the precession of an ensemble of free-pseudo spins under a magnetic field. The topology of the driven Hamiltonian is determined by the average winding number of the non-equilibrium state. Furthermore, we establish that the singularity of the dynamical quantum phase transition (DQPT) arises from two perpendicular pseudo-spin vectors associated with the preand post-quenched Hamiltonians. Moreover, we investigate the distinct behaviors of the dynamic pairing order parameter in both topological and non-topological regions. These findings offer valuable insights into the non-equilibrium behavior of topological superconductors, contributing to the understanding of the resilience of topological properties in driven quantum systems.
