Simple stochastic simulation of open quantum systems — •Jürgen T. Stockburger — Universität Ulm, Institut für Theoretische Physik, 89069 Ulm

The quantum dynamics of a system coupled to a reservoir with Gaussian quantum fluctuations can be recast in the form of a stochastic Liouville-von Neumann (SLN) equation involving noise forces which are classical variables bearing the spectral properties of quantum statistical fluctuations [1]. Until recently, related numerical methods used either a linear or a normalized, nonlinear SLN equation. Linear equations yield simulations that are simple and stable but resource-intensive. Normalized equations yield faster convergence but suffer from instabilities, which have so far been curable [2] only by resorting to complicated algorithms. New hybrid or “soft normalization” methods lead to simulations which combine the advantages of both earlier approaches.
