Realizing the dynamics of a non-Markovian quantum system by Markovian coupled oscillators: a Green’s function-based root locus approach

Abstract

In this paper, we develop a Green's function-based root locus approach to realizing a Lorentzian-noise-disturbed non-Markovian quantum system by Markovian coupled oscillators in an extended Hilbert space. By using a Green's function-based root locus method, we design an ancillary oscillator for Markovian coupled oscillators to be a Lorentzian noise generator. Thus a principal oscillator coupled to the ancillary oscillator via a direct interaction can capture the dynamics of a Lorentzian-noise-disturbed non-Markovian quantum system. By matching the root locus in the frequency domain, conditions for the realization are obtained and a critical transition in the non-Markovian quantum system can also be observed in the Markovian coupled oscillators.
