- Title: Lindbladian-Induced Alignment in Quantum Measurements
- Authors: Robert Englman and Asher Yahalom
- Abstract summary: An expression of the Lindbladian form is proposed that ensures an unambiguous time-continuous reduction of the initial system-pointer wave-packet to one in which the readings and the observable's values are aligned.
The jump operators are in the basis of the observables, with uniquely determined parameters derived from the measurement set-up.

- Abstract: An expression of the Lindbladian form is proposed that ensures an unambiguous
time-continuous reduction of the initial system-pointer wave-packet to one in
which the readings and the observable's values are aligned, formalized as the
transition from an outer product to an inner product of the system's and
apparatus' density matrices. The jump operators are in the basis of the
observables, with uniquely determined parameters derived from the measurement
set-up (thereby differing from S. Weinberg's Lindbladian resolution of
wave-packet formalism) and conforming to Born's probability rules. The novelty
lies in formalising the adaptability of the surroundings (including the
measuring device) to the mode of observation. Accordingly, the transition is of
finite duration (in contrast to its instantaneousness in the von Neumann's
formulation). This duration is estimated for a simple half-spin-like model.

Process [0.0]
Entanglement properties of driven quantum systems can potentially differ from the equilibrium situation due to long range coherences.
We derive exact formulae for its mutual information between different subsystems in the steady state and show that it satisfies a volume law.
Surprisingly, the QSSEP entanglement properties only depend on data related to its transport properties and we suspect that such a relation might hold for more general mesoscopic systems.

and connections to phase-space and Keldysh field theory formulations [77.34726150561087]
We reformulate the technique of third quantization in a way that explicitly connects all three methods.
We first show that our formulation reveals a fundamental dissipative symmetry present in all quadratic bosonic or fermionic Lindbladians.
For bosons, we then show that the Wigner function and the characteristic function can be thought of as ''wavefunctions'' of the density matrix.

We discuss a sufficient condition for gapless excitations in the Lindbladian master equation for collective spin-boson systems.
We argue that gapless modes can lead to persistent dynamics in the spin observables with the possible formation of dissipative time-crystals.

We show that it is possible to obtain closed-form expressions for the gradients of the distance between $cal O(t)$ and a calculated observable.
These gradients can be used in projected gradient descent to infer $alpha$, $P$ and the relevant density matrix from dynamical observables.
