Irreversible quantum evolution with quadratic generator: Review

Published Dec 1, 2019• 46 citations
arXivHTMLPDF

Abstract

We review results on GKSL-type equations with multi-modal generators which are quadratic in bosonic or fermionic creation and annihilation operators. General forms of such equations are presented. The Gaussian solutions are obtained in terms of equations for the first and the second moments. Different approaches for their solutions are discussed.

Quadratic dissipative evolution of Gaussian states with drift

Alexander Evgen’evich Teretenkov

The solution of the Cauchy problem for the Gorini–Kossakowski–Sudarshan–Lindblad equation describing the irreversible quantum evolution of an n-particle system with a generator, which is a quadratic function in creation-annihilation operators, is reduced to the calculation of standard algebraic functions of 2 n × 2 n matrices.

Quadratic fermionic dynamics with dissipation

Alexander Evgen’evich Teretenkov

Gaussian solutions of the Cauchy problem for the GKS-L equation (in the Schrödinger picture) with quadratic fermionic generators are obtained. These Gaussian solutions are represented both as exponentials of quadratic forms in fermionic creation-annihilation operators and by their normal symbols. The coefficients of these forms are represented as algebraic functions of matrices.

Gaussian quantum Markov semigroups of weak coupling limit type

Jorge R. Bolaños-Servín, Franco Fagnola, Roberto B. Quezada

Generators of Gaussian QMS have a GKLS form with noise operators that are linear in creation and annihilation operators, and Hamiltonian which is quadratic. We characterize Gaussian QMS arising in the Weak Coupling Limit (WCL) of a system interacting with some reservoirs. It turns out that their generators, under some natural assumptions, have a GKLS representation with noise operators that are either annihilation or creation operators and Hamiltonian [Formula: see text] which is diagonalizable as a quadratic operator.

On irreducibility of Gaussian quantum Markov semigroups

Franco Fagnola, Damiano Poletti

The generator of a Gaussian quantum Markov semigroup on the algebra of bounded operator on a [Formula: see text]-mode Fock space is represented in a generalized GKLS form with an operator [Formula: see text] quadratic in creation and annihilation operators and Kraus operators [Formula: see text] linear in creation and annihilation operators. Kraus operators, commutators [Formula: see text] and iterated commutators [Formula: see text] up to the order [Formula: see text], as linear combinations of creation and annihilation operators determine a vector in [Formula: see text]. We show that a Gaussian quantum Markov semigroup is irreducible if such vectors generate [Formula: see text], under the technical condition that the domains of [Formula: see text] and the number operator coincide. Conversely, we show that this condition is also necessary if the linear space generated by Kraus operators and their iterated commutator with [Formula: see text] is fully non-commutative.

Higher Order Moments Dynamics for Some Multimode Quantum Master Equations

Iu. A. Nosal, Alexander Evgen’evich Teretenkov

Abstract We derive Heisenberg equations for arbitrary high order moments of creation and annihilation operators in the case of the quantum master equation with a multimode generator which is quadratic in creation and annihilation operators and obtain their solutions. Based on them we also derive similar equations for the case of the quantum master equation, which occur after averaging the dynamics with a quadratic generator with respect to the classical Poisson process. This allows us to show that dynamics of arbitrary finite-order moments of creation and annihilation operators is fully defined by finite number of linear differential equations in this case.

Symmetric Gaussian quantum Markov semigroups

Damiano Poletti, Emanuela Sasso, Veronica Umanità

We investigate symmetric Gaussian Quantum Markov Semigroups (G-QMSs), a class of quantum dynamical semigroups acting on the algebra of bounded operators over a bosonic Fock space, whose generators are given in generalized GKLS form with linear and quadratic terms in canonical operators. Our main goal is to characterize the symmetry of such semigroups with respect to a faithful invariant Gaussian state, in terms of explicit algebraic conditions on the generator’s parameters. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for GNS-symmetry using the action of the semigroup on Weyl operators, and show that under natural assumptions, every symmetric G-QMS is unitarily equivalent to a direct sum of Ornstein–Uhlenbeck-type semigroups. The results are further linked to modular theory by confirming the well-known fact that GNS-symmetry implies commutation with the modular automorphism group. Technical appendices discuss the role of Bogoliubov and metaplectic transformations in simplifying the structure of symmetric semigroups.
