- Abstract: In recent years, non-linear optical phenomena have attracted much attention,
with a particular focus on the engineering and exploitation of non-linear
responses. Comparatively little study has however been devoted to the driving
fields that generate these responses. In this work, we demonstrate that the
relationship between a driving field and the optical response it induces is
non-unique. Using a generic model for a strongly interacting system, we show
that multiple candidate driving field exists, which will all generate the same
response. Consequently, it is possible show that the optical response is not
sufficient to determine the internal dynamics of the system, and that different
solutions for the driving field will do different amounts of work on a system.
This non-uniqueness phenomenon may in future be utilised to engineer internal
system states without modifying its optical response.

The present study investigates open system phenomena in driven optical systems coupled simultaneously to a bosonic field.
For a linear system of micro-cavities coupled to a photonic crystal, it is analytically shown that environmental interaction and external control cause significant non-Markovian corrections to the applied coherent drive.
The influence of the non-linearity is analyzed and benchmarked against an exact pseudo-mode solution, and compared with established master equations in the Markovian regime.

We propose Neural Interaction Inference with Potentials (NIIP) as an alternative approach to discover such interactions.
NIIP assigns low energy to the subset of trajectories which respect the relational constraints observed.
It allows trajectory manipulation, such as interchanging interaction types across separately trained models, as well as trajectory forecasting.
