Abstract

We prove a no-go theorem for symmetry-based dissipative engineering of collective-spin steady states: in spin-only Lindblad dynamics with jump operators linear in the collective-spin operators, any unique steady state exhibiting at least mathbb{Z}2 times mathbb{Z}2 symmetry is necessarily the maximally mixed state. We then show that bath memory lifts this obstruction, enabling unique entangled steady states with a prescribed symmetry and a metrological gain, and providing a steady-state witness of non-Markovianity. Notably, this framework is largely insensitive to the microscopic details of the bath.
