The evolution of a large class of fermionic open quantum systems with strong memory effects obeys an exact relation known as “fermionic duality”. Given any description of the evolution of states (Schrödinger picture), it explicitly provides the corresponding description of the evolution of observables (Heisenberg picture) by a parameter substitution and some simple operations. We apply this to a non-perturbative semigroup approximation that is both completely positive and trace-preserving, as well as to its correction by a so-called “initial slip”, and present a detailed comparison of these two approximations. We show that, surprisingly, the initial slip correction can be constructed for a large part using only the duality relation, circumventing further model-specific calculations. The main features of both approximations can already be seen in the exactly solvable resonant level model with strong coupling to a fermionic reservoir at finite temperature.
