Dissipative time crystal in an asymmetric nonlinear photonic dimer

Vincenzo Savona, Riccardo Rota, Kilian Robert Seibold

We investigate the behavior of two coupled nonlinear photonic cavities, in the presence of inhomogeneous coherent driving and local dissipations. By solving numerically the quantum master equation, either by diagonalizing the Liouvillian superoperator or b ...

Nuclear Quantum Effects: Fast and Accurate

Venkat Kapil

Atomistic simulations are a bottom up approach that predict properties of materials by modelling the quantum mechanical behaviour of all electrons and nuclei present in a system. These simulations, however, routinely assume nuclei to be classical particles ...

Variational Quantum Monte Carlo Method with a Neural-Network Ansatz for Open Quantum Systems

Vincenzo Savona, Alexandra Nagy

The possibility to simulate the properties of many-body open quantum systems with a large number of degrees of freedom (d.o.f.) is the premise to the solution of several outstanding problems in quantum science and quantum information. The challenge posed b ...

Linear Response Theory and Green-Kubo Relations for Active Matter

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora, Sara Dal Cengio

We address the question of how interacting active systems in a nonequilibrium steady state respond to an external perturbation. We establish an extended fluctuation-dissipation theorem for active Brownian particles (ABP), which highlights the role played b ...

The Fluctuation Dissipation Theorem as a Diagnosis and Cure for Zero-Point Energy Leakage in Quantum Thermal Bath Simulations

Sara Bonella

Quantum thermal bath (QTB) simulations reproduce statistical nuclear quantum effects via a Langevin equation with a colored random force. Although this approach has proven efficient for a variety of chemical and condensed-matter problems, the QTB, as many ...

Driven-dissipative quantum Monte Carlo method for open quantum systems

Vincenzo Savona, Alexandra Nagy

We develop a real-time full configuration-interaction quantum Monte Carlo approach to model driven-dissipative open quantum systems with Markovian system-bath coupling. The method enables stochastic sampling of the Liouville–von Neumann time evolution of t ...

Emergent transport in a many-body open system driven by interacting quantum baths

Vincenzo Savona, Eduardo Carlo Mascarenhas Moraes, Juris Reisons

We analyze an open many-body system that is strongly coupled at its boundaries to interacting quantum baths. We show that the two-body interactions inside the baths induce emergent phenomena in the spin transport. The system and baths are modeled as indepe ...

Quantum critical probing and simulation of colored quantum noise

Eduardo Carlo Mascarenhas Moraes

We propose a protocol to simulate the evolution of a non-Markovian open quantum system by considering a collisional process with a many-body system, which plays the role of an environment. As a result of our protocol, the environment spatial correlations a ...

Quantum Correlations under Time Reversal and Incomplete Parity Transformations in the Presence of a Constant Magnetic Field

Sara Bonella

We derive the quantum analogues of some recently discovered symmetry relations for time correlation functions in systems subject to a constant magnetic field. The symmetry relations deal with the effect of time reversal and do not requireas in the formulat ...

Quantum molecular master equations

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Sylvain Bréchet, François Reuse, Klaus Maschke

We present the quantum master equations for midsize molecules in the presence of an external magnetic field. The Hamiltonian describing the dynamics of a molecule accounts for the molecular deformation and orientation properties, as well as for the electro ...
