Dynamical Localization and Environmental Noise: a Quantum Trajectory Approach
Jin Woo Jun
Abstract
Using the quantum trajectory approach, we study the effects of environmental noise on dynamical localization in a quantum algorithm simulating the kicked rotator.We apply two models that generalize single qubit noisy channels, like phase flip and amplitude damping, to the many-qubit situation.Our numerical results show that the quantum trajectory approach is suitable for simulating the quantum kicked rotator in realistic environments.
