Efficient non-Markovian quantum dynamics using time-evolving matrix product operators.

ABSTRACT: In order to model realistic quantum devices it is necessary to simulate quantum systems strongly coupled to their environment. To date, most understanding of open quantum systems is restricted either to weak system-bath couplings or to special cases where specific numerical techniques become effective. Here we present a general and yet exact numerical approach that efficiently describes the time evolution of a quantum system coupled to a non-Markovian harmonic environment. Our method relies on expressing the system state and its propagator as a matrix product state and operator, respectively, and using a singular value decomposition to compress the description of the state as time evolves. We demonstrate the power and flexibility of our approach by numerically identifying the localisation transition of the Ohmic spin-boson model, and considering a model with widely separated environmental timescales arising for a pair of spins embedded in a common environment.

Linear optics simulation of quantum non-Markovian dynamics.

Project description:The simulation of open quantum dynamics has recently allowed the direct investigation of the features of system-environment interaction and of their consequences on the evolution of a quantum system. Such interaction threatens the quantum properties of the system, spoiling them and causing the phenomenon of decoherence. Sometimes however a coherent exchange of information takes place between system and environment, memory effects arise and the dynamics of the system becomes non-Markovian. Here we report the experimental realisation of a non-Markovian process where system and environment are coupled through a simulated transverse Ising model. By engineering the evolution in a photonic quantum simulator, we demonstrate the role played by system-environment correlations in the emergence of memory effects.

Efficient simulation of non-Markovian dynamics on complex networks.

Project description:We study continuous-time multi-agent models, where agents interact according to a network topology. At any point in time, each agent occupies a specific local node state. Agents change their state at random through interactions with neighboring agents. The time until a transition happens can follow an arbitrary probability density. Stochastic (Monte-Carlo) simulations are often the preferred-sometimes the only feasible-approach to study the complex emerging dynamical patterns of such systems. However, each simulation run comes with high computational costs mostly due to updating the instantaneous rates of interconnected agents after each transition. This work proposes a stochastic rejection-based, event-driven simulation algorithm that scales extremely well with the size and connectivity of the underlying contact network and produces statistically correct samples. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our method on different information spreading models.

Minimal evolution time and quantum speed limit of non-Markovian open systems.

Project description:We derive a sharp bound as the quantum speed limit (QSL) for the minimal evolution time of quantum open systems in the non-Markovian strong-coupling regime with initial mixed states by considering the effects of both renormalized Hamiltonian and dissipator. For a non-Markovian quantum open system, the possible evolution time between two arbitrary states is not unique, among the set of which we find that the minimal one and its QSL can decrease more steeply by adjusting the coupling strength of the dissipator, which thus provides potential improvements of efficiency in many quantum physics and quantum information areas.

Quantum speed limits in open systems: non-Markovian dynamics without rotating-wave approximation.

Project description:We derive an easily computable quantum speed limit (QSL) time bound for open systems whose initial states can be chosen as either pure or mixed states. Moreover, this QSL time is applicable to either Markovian or non-Markovian dynamics. By using of a hierarchy equation method, we numerically study the QSL time bound in a qubit system interacting with a single broadened cavity mode without rotating-wave, Born and Markovian approximation. By comparing with rotating-wave approximation (RWA) results, we show that the counter-rotating terms are helpful to increase evolution speed. The problem of non-Markovianity is also considered. We find that for non-RWA cases, increasing system-bath coupling can not always enhance the non-Markovianity, which is qualitatively different from the results with RWA. When considering the relation between QSL and non-Markovianity, we find that for small broadening widths of the cavity mode, non-Markovianity can increase the evolution speed in either RWA or non-RWA cases, while, for larger broadening widths, it is not true for non-RWA cases.

Markovian and Non-Markovian Modeling of Membrane Dynamics with Milestoning.

Project description:We exploit atomically detailed simulations and the milestoning theory to extract coarse grained models of membrane kinetics and thermodynamics. Non-Markovian and Markovian theories for the phosphate group displacements are used to coarsely represent membrane motions. The construction of the two models makes it possible to examine their consistency and accuracy. The equilibrium and fluctuations of the phosphate groups along the normal to the membrane plane are estimated, and milestoning equations are constructed and solved. An optimal Markovian model is constructed that reproduces exactly the equilibrium and mean first passage time (MFPT) of the non-Markovian model. The equilibrium solution of both models is favorably compared to distributions obtained from straightforward molecular dynamics simulations. The picture for the kinetics is complex. Multiple local relaxation times of the mass density are illustrated emphasizing the non-Markovian characteristics of the process. In Markovian modeling, only a single relaxation time is assumed for a state. Mapping of particle dynamics to the dynamics of a field density offers a new way of coarse graining complex systems as membranes that may bridge between atomically detailed models and phenomenological descriptions of macroscopic membranes.

Equivalence and its invalidation between non-Markovian and Markovian spreading dynamics on complex networks.

Project description:Epidemic spreading processes in the real world depend on human behaviors and, consequently, are typically non-Markovian in that the key events underlying the spreading dynamics cannot be described as a Poisson random process and the corresponding event time is not exponentially distributed. In contrast to Markovian type of spreading dynamics for which mathematical theories have been well developed, we lack a comprehensive framework to analyze and fully understand non-Markovian spreading processes. Here we develop a mean-field theory to address this challenge, and demonstrate that the theory enables accurate prediction of both the transient phase and the steady states of non-Markovian susceptible-infected-susceptible spreading dynamics on synthetic and empirical networks. We further find that the existence of equivalence between non-Markovian and Markovian spreading depends on a specific edge activation mechanism. In particular, when temporal correlations are absent on active edges, the equivalence can be expected; otherwise, an exact equivalence no longer holds.

A quantum algorithm for evolving open quantum dynamics on quantum computing devices.

Project description:Designing quantum algorithms for simulating quantum systems has seen enormous progress, yet few studies have been done to develop quantum algorithms for open quantum dynamics despite its importance in modeling the system-environment interaction found in most realistic physical models. In this work we propose and demonstrate a general quantum algorithm to evolve open quantum dynamics on quantum computing devices. The Kraus operators governing the time evolution can be converted into unitary matrices with minimal dilation guaranteed by the Sz.-Nagy theorem. This allows the evolution of the initial state through unitary quantum gates, while using significantly less resource than required by the conventional Stinespring dilation. We demonstrate the algorithm on an amplitude damping channel using the IBM Qiskit quantum simulator and the IBM Q 5 Tenerife quantum device. The proposed algorithm does not require particular models of dynamics or decomposition of the quantum channel, and thus can be easily generalized to other open quantum dynamical models.

Non-Markovian full counting statistics in quantum dot molecules.

Project description:Full counting statistics of electron transport is a powerful diagnostic tool for probing the nature of quantum transport beyond what is obtainable from the average current or conductance measurement alone. In particular, the non-Markovian dynamics of quantum dot molecule plays an important role in the nonequilibrium electron tunneling processes. It is thus necessary to understand the non-Markovian full counting statistics in a quantum dot molecule. Here we study the non-Markovian full counting statistics in two typical quantum dot molecules, namely, serially coupled and side-coupled double quantum dots with high quantum coherence in a certain parameter regime. We demonstrate that the non-Markovian effect manifests itself through the quantum coherence of the quantum dot molecule system, and has a significant impact on the full counting statistics in the high quantum-coherent quantum dot molecule system, which depends on the coupling of the quantum dot molecule system with the source and drain electrodes. The results indicated that the influence of the non-Markovian effect on the full counting statistics of electron transport, which should be considered in a high quantum-coherent quantum dot molecule system, can provide a better understanding of electron transport through quantum dot molecules.

Non-Markovian Complexity in the Quantum-to-Classical Transition.

Project description:The quantum-to-classical transition is due to environment-induced decoherence, and it depicts how classical dynamics emerges from quantum systems. Previously, the quantum-to-classical transition has mainly been described with memory-less (Markovian) quantum processes. Here we study the complexity of the quantum-to-classical transition through general non-Markovian memory processes. That is, the influence of various reservoirs results in a given initial quantum state evolving into one of the following four scenarios: thermal state, thermal-like state, quantum steady state, or oscillating quantum nonstationary state. In the latter two scenarios, the system maintains partial or full quantum coherence due to the strong non-Markovian memory effect, so that in these cases, the quantum-to-classical transition never occurs. This unexpected new feature provides a new avenue for the development of future quantum technologies because the remaining quantum oscillations in steady states are decoherence-free.

Non-Markovian cost function for quantum error mitigation with Dirac Gamma matrices representation.

Project description:This paper investigates the non-Markovian cost function in quantum error mitigation (QEM) and employs Dirac Gamma matrices to illustrate two-qubit operators, significant in relativistic quantum mechanics. Amid the focus on error reduction in noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices, understanding non-Markovian noise, commonly found in solid-state quantum computers, is crucial. We propose a non-Markovian model for quantum state evolution and a corresponding QEM cost function, using simple harmonic oscillators as a proxy for environmental noise. Owing to their shared algebraic structure with two-qubit gate operators, Gamma matrices allow for enhanced analysis and manipulation of these operators. We evaluate the fluctuations of the output quantum state across various input states for identity and SWAP gate operations, and by comparing our findings with ion-trap and superconducting quantum computing systems' experimental data, we derive essential QEM cost function parameters. Our findings indicate a direct relationship between the quantum system's coupling strength with its environment and the QEM cost function. The research highlights non-Markovian models' importance in understanding quantum state evolution and assessing experimental outcomes from NISQ devices.
