Coupled quantum oscillators within independent quantum reservoirs

Illarion Dorofeyev

This paper addresses the problem of open quantum systems. The energy of interaction of coupled dissipative systems is the main focus of the study. Quantum Langevin equations for two quantum coupling oscillators within independent heat baths of quantum oscillators are obtained using a model Hamiltonian and corresponding Heisenberg equations of motion. Analytical expressions for mean energy of coupled oscillators and their mean energy of interaction are derived and analyzed. Nonmonotonic dependence of the interaction energy versus a coupling constant is demonstrated and an explanation is suggested.

Quantum counterpart of energy equipartition theorem for a dissipative charged magneto-oscillator: Effect of dissipation, memory, and magnetic field

Jasleen Kaur, Aritra Ghosh, Malay Bandyopadhyay

In this paper, we formulate and study the quantum counterpart of the energy equipartition theorem for a charged quantum particle moving in a harmonic potential in the presence of a uniform external magnetic field and linearly coupled to a passive quantum heat bath through coordinate variables. The bath is modeled as a collection of independent quantum harmonic oscillators. We derive closed form expressions for the mean kinetic and potential energies of the charged dissipative magneto-oscillator in the forms ${E}_{k}=\ensuremath{\langle}{\mathcal{E}}_{k}\ensuremath{\rangle}$ and ${E}_{p}=\ensuremath{\langle}{\mathcal{E}}_{p}\ensuremath{\rangle}$, respectively, where ${\mathcal{E}}_{k}$ and ${\mathcal{E}}_{p}$ denote the average kinetic and potential energies of individual thermostat oscillators. The net averaging is twofold; the first one is over the Gibbs canonical state for the thermostat, giving ${\mathcal{E}}_{k}$ and ${\mathcal{E}}_{p}$, and the second one, denoted by $\ensuremath{\langle}\ifmmode\cdot\else\textperiodcentered\fi{}\ensuremath{\rangle}$, is over the frequencies $\ensuremath{\omega}$ of the bath oscillators which contribute to ${E}_{k}$ and ${E}_{p}$ according to probability distributions ${\mathcal{P}}_{k}(\ensuremath{\omega})$ and ${\mathcal{P}}_{p}(\ensuremath{\omega})$, respectively. The relationship of the present quantum version of the equipartition theorem with that of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem (within the linear-response theory framework) is also explored. Further, we investigate the influence of the external magnetic field and the effect of different dissipation processes through Gaussian decay and Drude and radiation bath spectral density functions on the typical properties of ${\mathcal{P}}_{k}(\ensuremath{\omega})$ and ${\mathcal{P}}_{p}(\ensuremath{\omega})$. Finally, the role of system-bath coupling strength and the memory effect is analyzed in the context of average kinetic and potential energies of the dissipative charged magneto-oscillator.

Boltzmann sampling from the Ising model using quantum heating of coupled nonlinear oscillators

Hayato Goto, Zhirong Lin, Yasunobu Nakamura

A network of Kerr-nonlinear parametric oscillators without dissipation has recently been proposed for solving combinatorial optimization problems via quantum adiabatic evolution through its bifurcation point. Here we investigate the behavior of the quantum bifurcation machine (QbM) in the presence of dissipation. Our numerical study suggests that the output probability distribution of the dissipative QbM is Boltzmann-like, where the energy in the Boltzmann distribution corresponds to the cost function of the optimization problem. We explain the Boltzmann distribution by generalizing the concept of quantum heating in a single nonlinear oscillator to the case of multiple coupled nonlinear oscillators. The present result also suggests that such driven dissipative nonlinear oscillator networks can be applied to Boltzmann sampling, which is used, e.g., for Boltzmann machine learning in the field of artificial intelligence.
