- Abstract: Krylov complexity is a novel measure of operator complexity that exhibits
universal behavior and bounds a large class of other measures. In this letter,
we generalize Krylov complexity from a closed system to an open system coupled
to a Markovian bath, where Lindbladian evolution replaces Hamiltonian
evolution. We show that Krylov complexity in open systems can be mapped to a
non-hermitian tight-binding model in a half-infinite chain. We discuss the
properties of the non-hermitian terms and show that the strengths of the
non-hermitian terms increase linearly with the increase of the Krylov basis
index $n$. Such a non-hermitian tight-binding model can exhibit localized edge
modes that determine the long-time behavior of Krylov complexity. Hence, the
growth of Krylov complexity is suppressed by dissipation, and at long-time,
Krylov complexity saturates at a finite value much smaller than that of a
closed system with the same Hamitonian. Our conclusions are supported by
numerical results on several models, such as the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model and
the interacting fermion model. Our work provides insights for discussing
complexity, chaos, and holography for open quantum systems.
