• Title: Effective description of cooling and thermal shifts in quantum systems coupled to bosonic modes
• Authors: Simon B. J\"ager and Ralf Betzholz
• Abstract summary: An effective Lindblad master equation for quantum systems with dissipative bosonic modes has been introduced. Here, we demonstrate that this effective master equation can also be used to describe cooling in systems with light-matter interactions. In addition, we present how the effective master equation can be extended to the case of non-vanishing mean thermal occupations of the bosonic mode.

• Abstract: Recently, an effective Lindblad master equation for quantum systems whose dynamics are coupled to dissipative bosonic modes has been introduced [Phys. Rev. Lett. 129, 063601 (2022)]. In this approach, the bosonic modes are adiabatically eliminated and one can effectively describe the dynamics of the quantum systems. Here, we demonstrate that this effective master equation can also be used to describe cooling in systems with light-matter interactions. We provide two examples: sideband cooling of an optomechanical oscillator in the unresolved as well as resolved sideband regime and cooling of an interacting quantum system, the transverse-field Ising model. We compare our effective description with a full numerical simulation of the composite formed by the quantum system plus bosonic mode and find an excellent agreement. In addition, we present how the effective master equation can be extended to the case of non-vanishing mean thermal occupations of the bosonic mode. We use this approach to calculate modifications of the linewidth and frequency for a two-level system coupled to a dissipative thermal bosonic mode. Here, we highlight that our approach allows for a massive reduction of the underlying Liouville-space dimension.

  We study theoretically an array of two-level qubits moving relative to a one-dimensional waveguide. When the frequency of this motion approaches twice the qubit resonance frequency, it induces parametric generation of photons and excitation of the qubits. We develop a comprehensive general theoretical framework that incorporates both perturbative diagrammatic techniques and a rigorous master-equation approach.

We show how three common effective equations, namely the Brownian master equation, the Born-Markov master equation, and the adiabatic elimination can be derived from different perturbative expansions of the Nakajima-Zwanzig equation.

• A Lindblad master equation capable of describing hybrid quantum systems in the ultra-strong coupling regime [0.0]
  We show an approach that can describe the dynamics of hybrid quantum systems in any regime of interaction for an arbitrary electromagnetic (EM) environment. We extend a previous method developed for few-mode quantization of arbitrary systems to the case of ultrastrong light-matter coupling. We show that it outperforms current state-of-the-art master equations for a simple model system, and then study a realistic nanoplasmonic setup where existing approaches cannot be applied.

By transformation to an appropriate picture, we identify the usual Jaynes-Cummings Hamiltonian between the scatterer and a superposition of the initial and final mode. The transformed master equation offers important insights into the system dynamics and it permits numerically efficient solutions.

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

  We present a semi-analytical approach for studying quantum thermal energy transport beyond the weak system-bath coupling regime. 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.
