• Abstract: Efficiency of quantum transport through aggregates with multiple end-points or traps proves to be an emergent and a highly non-equilibrium phenomenon. We present a numerically exact approach for computing the emergent time scale and amount of extraction specific to particular traps leveraging a non-Hermitian generalization of the recently introduced state-to-state transport analysis [Bose and Walters, J. Chem. Theory Comput. 2023, 19, 15, 4828-4836]. This method is able to simultaneously account for the coupling between various sites, the many-body effects brought in by the vibrations and environment held at a non-zero temperature, and the local extraction processes described by non-Hermitian terms in the Hamiltonian. In fact, our non-Hermitian state-to-state analysis goes beyond merely providing an emergent loss time-scale. It can parse the entire dynamics into the constituent internal transport pathways and loss to environment. We demonstrate this method using examples of an exciton transport in a lossy polaritonic cavity. The loss at the cavity and the extraction of the exciton from a terminal molecule provide competing mechanisms that our method helps to unravel, revealing extremely interesting non-intuitive physics. This non-Hermitian state-to-state analysis technique contributes an important link in understanding and elucidating the routes of transport in open quantum systems.

While our results are applicable to several recent experiments, we examine a recent cold-atom experiment in particular, and show that the observed long-time chirality is but limited to the special encircling path therein.

The procedure is similar in spirit to the use of periodic driving to induce chiral edge transport in Floquet topological insulators. We study in detail the dependence of the procedure on measurement frequency, showing that in the Zeno limit the system can be described by a classical dynamics, protected transport.
