• Abstract: We consider the time evolution of an open quantum system subject to a sequence of random quantum channels with a stationary distribution. This incorporates disorder into the repeated interactions (or, quantum collision models) approach to understanding open quantum dynamics. In the literature, various specific models of disorder in repeated interaction models have been considered, including the cases where the sequence of quantum channels form either i.i.d. or Markovian stochastic processes. In the present paper we consider the general structure of such models without any specific assumptions on the probability distribution, aside from stationarity (i.e., time-translation invariance). In particular, arbitrarily strong correlations between time steps are allowed. In 2021, Movassagh and Schenker (MS) introduced a unified framework in which one may study such randomized quantum dynamics, and, under a key strong decoherence assumption proved an ergodic theorem for a large class of physically relevant examples. Here, we recognize the decoherence assumption of MS as a kind of irreducibility and develop a reducibility theory for general stationary random repeated interaction models without this condition. Within this framework, we establish ergodic theorems extending of those obtained by MS to the general stationary setting.

We show that Birkhoff-violation in GPTs can lead to consequences that are atypical to quantum theory.

We reveal that the disorder-averaged evolution of few-body observables, including the quantum Fisher information, exhibit within numerical resolution a universal equilibration process. This framework extracts the disorder-averaged dynamics of a many-body system as an effective dissipative evolution.

The observed random ensembles emerge from projective measurements and are intimately linked to universal correlations built up between subsystems of a larger quantum system. Our work has implications for understanding randomness in quantum dynamics, and enables applications of this concept in a wider context.
