IRIS Institutional Research Information System - AIR Archivio Istituzionale della Ricerca

IRIS è il sistema di gestione integrata dei dati della ricerca (persone, progetti, pubblicazioni, attività) adottato dall'Università degli Studi di Milano.

AIR nasce in UNIMI nel 2006 con lo scopo di raccogliere, documentare e conservare le informazioni sulla produzione scientifica dell'Università degli Studi di Milano e costituisce di fatto l'Anagrafe della ricerca dell'Ateneo.

Chain-mapping techniques in combination with the time-dependent density matrix renormalization group are a powerful tool for the simulation of open-system quantum dynamics. For finite-temperature environments, however, this approach suffers from an unfavorable algorithmic scaling with increasing temperature. We prove that the system dynamics under thermal environments can be nonperturbatively described by temperature-dependent system-environmental couplings with the initial environment state being in its pure vacuum state, instead of a mixed thermal state. As a consequence, as long as the initial system state is pure, the global system-environment state remains pure at all times. The resulting speed-up and relaxed memory requirements of this approach enable the efficient simulation of open quantum systems interacting with highly structured environments in any temperature range, with applications extending from quantum thermodynamics to quantum effects in mesoscopic systems.
