- Authors: Nicholas Anto-Sztrikacs and Dvira Segal
- Abstract summary: We study the pure decoherence model of a spin coupled to a harmonic reservoir.
We find that the RC method can quantitatively capture non-Markovian effects at strong system-bath coupling.
Lastly, we apply our RC method and study the spin-boson model in the non-Markovian regime.

- Abstract: The reaction coordinate (RC) technique is emerging as a significant tool in
the study of quantum dissipative dynamics and quantum thermodynamics. With the
objective to further establish this tool, here we explore to what extent the
method can capture non-Markovian dynamics of open quantum systems. As a case
study, we focus on the pure decoherence model of a spin coupled to a harmonic
reservoir. We compare the spin dynamics and measures for non-Markovianity from
the exact analytical solution to simulations based on the RC method at the
level of a second order quantum master equation. We find that the RC method can
quantitatively capture non-Markovian effects at strong system-bath coupling and
for structured baths. This is rationalized by the fact that the collective RC
bath mode, which is made part of the system, maintains system-bath
correlations. Lastly, we apply our RC method and study the spin-boson model in
the non-Markovian regime.

We propose a hybrid quantum-classical method to investigate the equilibrium physics and the dynamics of strongly correlated fermionic models with spin-based quantum processors.
Our proposal avoids the usual pitfalls of fermion-to-spin mappings thanks to a slave-spin method which allows to approximate the original Hamiltonian into a sum of self-correlated free-fermions and spin Hamiltonians.
We show, through realistic numerical simulations of current Rydberg processors, that the method yields quantitatively viable results even in the presence of imperfections.

Unavoidable coupling of quantum systems to external degrees of freedom leads to dissipative (non-unitary) dynamics.

In our technique, applied to the nonequilibrium spin-boson model, a collective coordinate is extracted from each environment and added into the system to construct an enlarged system.
We demonstrate that we properly capture strong system-bath signatures such as the turnover behavior of the heat current as a function of system-bath coupling strength.

Inferring the parameters of a model based on experimental observations is central to the scientific method.
A particularly challenging setting is when the model is strongly indeterminate, i.e., when distinct sets of parameters yield identical observations.
We present a method for cracking such indeterminacy by exploiting additional information conveyed by an auxiliary set of observations sharing global parameters.
