\label{sec:twoosccomp}
The model of \cref{sec:oneosc} was generalized to two oscillators
coupled to two separate baths in \cref{sec:twoosc}. The main challenge
of simulating the model \cref{eq:hamiltonian} is the dimension of the
system Hilbert space which is constrained by the available memory. To
limit the variance the temperature of one of the baths was set to
zero, so that only one thermal stochastic process was introduced.
coupled to two separate baths in \cref{sec:twoosc} and
\cref{eq:hamiltonian_two_bath}. In this section we simulate this model
and compare the results with the analytical solution.
For simplicity, the parameters were chosen symmetric so that the
frequencies of both oscillators are the same \(Ω=Λ=1\). As before,
\(Ω\) defines the energy unit. The zero temperature bath correlation
functions of both baths were chosen identically with a cutoff
frequency \(ω_c=2\). The intra-oscillator coupling was chosen as
\(γ=0.5\). The hierarchy was truncated so that \(\abs{\vb{k}}\leq 3\) and a BCF
expansion with five terms was chosen to limit memory demands.
\fixme{mention number of samples}
To limit the variance the temperature of one of the baths was set to
zero, so that only one thermal stochastic process was introduced. The
other bath was chosen to have \(T=0.6\). The ground state of the
system Hamiltonian \(\ket{0}\otimes \ket{0}\) was chosen as the
initial state of the oscillators.
The main challenge of simulating the model \cref{eq:hamiltonian_two_bath} is
the dimension of the system Hilbert space which is constrained by the
available memory. In the simulation discussed here, each oscillator
was truncated at \(9\) levels leading to \(9^2 = 81\) dimensions in
total\footnote{This is a naive method of truncation, but sufficient
for the purposes of this work.}. The effect of a too drastic
truncation of the system Hilbert space can be seen in
\cref{fig:insufficient_levels}. At the temperature chosen the mean
level occupation of a harmonic oscillator is given by the Bose distribution
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:harm_mean_occ}
\ev{n} = \frac{1}{\eu^{Ωβ}-1} \approx 0.23 < 1.
\end{equation}
Nevertheless, quite more than two levels are required per
oscillator. This may be due to a required minimal resolution of the
position operators that occur in the model
\cref{eq:hamiltonian_two_bath} which is formulated with position space
in mind.
The final result can be studied in \cref{fig:sufficient_levels}. We
find good, but not excellent agreement. Based on the results of
\cref{sec:oneosccomp} however, it can be argued that this result is
sufficient to corroborate the validity of the results of
\cref{sec:multibath}. With more computational effort and fine-tuning
of parameters a better agreement between the analytical and the
numerical results may be achieved.

\Cref{fig:comp_two_bath} exhibits some interesting features. The
initial slip peak in the bath energy flows is identical for both baths
and independent of temperature as suggested by the discussion in
\cref{sec:pure_deph}. As is expected, the hot bath looses energy and
the cold bath gains energy, while this process is modulated by the
intra-oscillator coupling. It follows from the analytical solution
that eventually a steady state without oscillations will be reached.
Interestingly, the zero temperature bath flow converges very much
faster than the finite temperature flow despite the whole system being
connected, at least indirectly, to the hot bath. The reason for this
is that the derivative of the thermal stochastic process \(\dot{ξ}\)
dominates the variance of the flow for each trajectory. This is also
the reason that expressions depending on the hierarchy states rather
than time derivatives of stochastic processes are preferred as
discussed in \cref{sec:general_obs}.
