Abstract
AbstractMany‐body open quantum systems (OQSs) have a profound impact on various subdisciplines of physics, chemistry, and biology. Thus, the development of a computer program capable of accurately, efficiently, and versatilely simulating many‐body OQSs is highly desirable. In recent years, we have focused on the advancement of numerical algorithms based on the fermionic hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM) theory. Being in‐principle exact, this approach allows for the precise characterization of many‐body correlations, non‐Markovian memory, and non‐equilibrium thermodynamic conditions. These efforts now lead to the establishment of a new computer program, HEOM for QUantum Impurity with a Correlated Kernel, version 2 (HEOM‐QUICK2), which, to the best of our knowledge, is currently the only general‐purpose simulator for fermionic many‐body OQSs. Compared with version 1, the HEOM‐QUICK2 program features more efficient solvers for stationary states, more accurate treatment of non‐Markovian memory, and improved numerical stability for long‐time dissipative dynamics. Integrated with quantum chemistry software, HEOM‐QUICK2 has become a valuable theoretical tool for the precise simulation of realistic many‐body OQSs, particularly the single atomic or molecular junctions. Furthermore, the unprecedented precision achieved by HEOM‐QUICK2 enables accurate simulation of low‐energy spin excitations and coherent spin relaxation. The unique usefulness of HEOM‐QUICK2 is demonstrated through several examples of strongly correlated quantum impurity systems under non‐equilibrium conditions. Thus, the new HEOM‐QUICK2 program offers a powerful and comprehensive tool for studying many‐body OQSs with exotic quantum phenomena and exploring applications in various disciplines.This article is categorized under: Data Science > Computer Algorithms and Programming Software > Simulation Methods Theoretical and Physical Chemistry > Statistical Mechanics
