• Abstract: Describing dynamics of quantum many-body systems is a formidable challenge due to rapid generation of quantum entanglement between remote degrees of freedom. A promising approach to tackle this challenge, which has been proposed recently, is to characterize the quantum dynamics of a many-body system and its properties as a bath via the Feynman-Vernon influence matrix (IM), which is an operator in the space of time trajectories of local degrees of freedom. Physical understanding of the general scaling of the IM's temporal entanglement and its relation to basic dynamical properties is highly incomplete to present day. In this Article, we analytically compute the exact IM for a family of integrable Floquet models - the transverse-field kicked Ising chain - finding a Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer-like "wavefunction" on the Schwinger-Keldysh contour with algebraically decaying correlations. We demonstrate that the IM exhibits area-law temporal entanglement scaling for all parameter values. Furthermore, the entanglement pattern of the IM reveals the system's phase diagram, exhibiting jumps across transitions between distinct Floquet phases. Near criticality, a non-trivial scaling behavior of temporal entanglement is found. The area-law temporal entanglement allows us to efficiently describe the effects of sizeable integrability-breaking perturbations for long evolution times by using matrix product state methods. This work shows that tensor network methods are efficient in describing the effect of non-interacting baths on open quantum systems, and provides a new approach to studying quantum many-body systems with weakly broken integrability.

The approach can be applied to a number of experimental setups, including highly non-equilibrium transport via quantum dots and real-time formation of impurity-reservoir correlations.

We introduce a method to deal with these systems based on the calculation of (dissipative) lattice Green's function. We illustrate the power of this method with several examples of driven-dissipative bosonic chains of increasing complexity.
