• Abstract: In this work, we develop a mathematical framework to model a quantum system whose Hamiltonian may depend on the state of changing environment, that evolves according to a Markovian process. When the environment changes its state, the quantum system may suffer a shock that produces an instantaneous transition among its states. The model that we propose can be readily adapted to more general settings.\\ To avoid collateral analytical issues, we consider the case of quantum systems with finite dimensional state space, in which case the observables are described by Hermitian matrices. We show how to average over the environment to predict the expected values of observables.

  We show that the effect of the time-evolved global system on a finite subsystem can be analytically described by sequential, time-local quantum channels acting on the subsystem boundary. The realization of exact Markovian property is facilitated by a solvable condition on the underlying two-site gates in the quantum circuit.

  Recently a quantum notion of ergodicity has been proposed, namely that isolated, global quantum states uniformly explore their available state space. Here we observe signatures of this process with an experimental Rydberg quantum simulator and various numerical models. We then consider the case of an open system interacting noisily with an external environment.
