Stochastic simulation of open-system quantum dynamics: overcoming the curse of non-Hermitian propagationKonstantin Schmitz1, Thomas Unden2, and •Jürgen Stockburger11Ulm University, Institute for Complex Quantum Systems — 2Ulm University, Intstiute for Quantum Optics

The Stochastic Liouville-von Neumann equation [1] provides an exact numerical simulation strategy for quantum systems coupled to a reservoir with Gaussian fluctuations of arbitrary spectrum (linear dissipation). Individual stochastic samples are propagated with Hamiltonians containing random non-Hermitian terms, leading to poor signal-to noise ratios in some cases. However, the efficiency of this approach has recently improved dramatically through time-domain projection techniques, implemented as reduction operations [2]. In addition, we present two recently developed sampling strategies which show significantly improved scaling with the strength of the dissipative interaction and with the reservoir memory time: a) anticorrelated sampling, exploiting a gauge-like symmetry and b) reducing the non-unitary terms in sample propagation through convex optimization techniques.
