• Abstract: Open quantum many-body systems are commonly described by Lindblad master equations, yet the treatment of Lindbladian operators in the thermodynamic limit remains a major challenge. We develop a framework for constructing effective quasiparticle-conserving Lindbladian operators directly in the thermodynamic limit. Our approach extends continuous similarity transformations to non-Hermitian open quantum systems and enables the systematic block diagonalization of Lindbladians with respect to the quasiparticle (qp) number. We formulate two complementary methods. The first, projective continuous similarity transformations (pcst++), generalizes perturbative continuous unitary transformations to Lindblad operators so that a linked-cluster expansion allows us to obtain high-order series expansions of the infinite system. The second, deepCST, extends directly evaluated enhanced perturbative continuous unitary transformations by combining the same qp-conserving generator with a perturbative truncation scheme that yields non-perturbative effective Lindbladian operators directly in thermodynamic limit. We apply pcst++ and deepCST to the dissipative transverse-field Ising chain with local dissipation. We focus on the low-Ising regime. We purify the Lindbladian by splitting each spin into two sites. A spin flip then corresponds to two qps. We derive and analyze the effective, qp-conserving Lindbladian in the sectors with zero to two qps. We show how the Ising interaction renormalizes the decay rates of elementary spin-flip excitations and provides the microscopic mechanism for a competition between coherent interactions and dissipation. Our work establishes perturbative and non-perturbative continuous similarity transformations as a versatile tool for deriving effective qp pictures of open quantum many-body systems in the thermodynamic limit.
