|
reduced system dynamics, but it is an open question whether bath
|
||||||
|
related quantities can be calculated to a similar degree of accuracy.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The best possible verification is the comparison with a soluble model,
|
||||||
|
ideally solved with a method completely different from the NMQSD. In
|
||||||
|
this chapter we will present the solution to the Heisenberg equations
|
||||||
|
of two quantum Brownian motion models for a single (\cref{sec:oneosc})
|
||||||
|
and two baths (\cref{sec:twoosc}) and time independent Hamiltonians.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
These solutions will enable us to calculate the bath energy flow \(J\)
|
||||||
|
for one or two baths which will be compared with the numerical
|
||||||
|
solution in \cref{sec:hopsvsanalyt}.

\section{Generalization to Multiple Baths}
|
||||||
|
\label{sec:multibath}
|
||||||
|
Another requirement for thermodynamic application is the ability to
|
||||||
|
couple to multiple baths of possibly different structure and
|
||||||
|
temperature.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Due to the structure of the NMQSD and HOPS the results above can be
|
||||||
|
generalized in straight-forward manner to models of the form
|
||||||
|
\begin{equation}
|
||||||
|
\label{eq:multimodel}
|
||||||
|
H = H_\sys + ∑_{n=1}^N \qty[H_\bath\nth + \qty(L_n^†B_n + \hc)],
|
||||||
|
\end{equation}
|
||||||
|
where \(N\) is the number of baths, \(H_\sys\) is the system
|
||||||
|
Hamiltonian, \(H_\bath\nth = ∑_λω_λ\nth a_λ^{(n),†}a_λ\nth\),
|
||||||
|
\(B_n=∑_{λ} g_λ\nth a_λ\nth\) and the \(L_n={(\vb{L})}_n\) are
|
||||||
|
arbitrary operators in the system Hilbert space.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note that this models a situation where each bath couples with the
|
||||||
|
system through exactly one spectral density and is therefore not fully
|
||||||
|
general.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
We refer to \cref{sec:hops_multibath} for an review of the NMQSD
|
||||||
|
theory and HOPS method for multiple baths.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Because the bath energy change is being calculated directly and not
|
||||||
|
through energy conservation as in~\cite{Kato2016Dec}, we find
|
||||||
|
\begin{equation}
|
||||||
|
\label{eq:general_n_flow}
|
||||||
|
J_n=-\dv{\ev{H_\bath^{(n)}}}{t} = \iu\ev{[H_\bath^{(n)},
|
||||||
|
H_\inter^{(n)}]}
|
||||||
|
\end{equation}
|
||||||
|
regardless of the (non-) commutativity\footnote{For example, the
|
||||||
|
three-level model used in \cite{Uzdin2015Sep,Klatzow2019Mar} has
|
||||||
|
non-commuting couplings.} of the interaction
|
||||||
|
Hamiltonians. Therefore, we can apply the formalism of the previous
|
||||||
|
sections almost unchanged, by taking care that all quantities involved
|
||||||
|
in the expression of \(J_n\) refer to the \(n\)th bath denoted by sub
|
||||||
|
and superscripts.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This can be achieved by making the replacements
|
||||||
|
\begin{equation}
|
||||||
|
\label{eq:replacements}
|
||||||
|
\begin{aligned}
|
||||||
|
D_t \rightarrow D_t^{(n)} &\equiv
|
||||||
|
∫_0^t\dd{s}α_n(t-s)\fdv{η^\ast_n(s)} \\
|
||||||
|
ξ(t) \rightarrow ξ_n(t)&\equiv∑_{\lambda} g^{(n)}_{\lambda}
|
||||||
|
y_{\lambda} \eu^{-\mathrm{i} ω^{(n)}_{\lambda} t}
|
||||||
|
\end{aligned}
|
||||||
|
\end{equation}
|
||||||
|
in the previous sections, where the quantities involved are as in
|
||||||
|
\cref{sec:hops_multibath} and \cref{eq:xiproc}.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Foreshadowing slightly it may be states that in the light of
|
||||||
|
\cref{sec:general_obs} it might be an interesting question what impact
|
||||||
|
mixed bath hierarchy states have. For a cyclic machine with long
|
||||||
|
strokes, where only one bath is coupled to the system at a time, it
|
||||||
|
might be efficient to truncate the hierarchy in a way that discards
|
||||||
|
mixed bath states more readily than single bath hierarchy states as
|
||||||
|
the correlations between the baths are expected to be small.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
\section{Generalization to Time Dependent Hamiltonians}
|
||||||
|
\label{sec:timedep}
|
||||||
|
To extract energy from a quantum thermal machine without an explicit
|
||||||
|
work reservoir, external modulation is required.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The above discussion is based on the model \cref{eq:multimodel} which
|
||||||
|
did not include explicit time modulations of \(H_\sys\) or \(L\). As
|
||||||
|
we did not calculate any explicit time derivatives of those two
|
||||||
|
operators, the results of the previous sections remain valid when we
|
||||||
|
substitute \(H_\sys\rightarrow H_\sys(t)\) and \(L\rightarrow L(t)\).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For the total power we find
|
||||||
|
\begin{equation}
|
||||||
|
\label{eq:power}
|
||||||
|
\dv{\ev{H}}{t} = \ev{\pdv{H_\inter}{t}} + \ev{\pdv{H_\sys}{t}},
|
||||||
|
\end{equation}
|
||||||
|
which can be evaluated as we will find in \cref{sec:intener} by
|
||||||
|
replacing \(L(t)\) with \(\dot{L}(t)\).

\section{Generalization to Multiple Baths}
|
|
||||||
\label{sec:multibath}
|
|
||||||
\begin{itemize}
|
|
||||||
\item for thermodynamic machines: need multiple baths
|
|
||||||
\item due to the structure of NMQSD/HOPS generalization is
|
|
||||||
straightforward
|
|
||||||
\end{itemize}
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The results above can be generalized in straight-forward manner to
|
|
||||||
models of the form
|
|
||||||
\begin{equation}
|
|
||||||
\label{eq:multimodel}
|
|
||||||
H = H_\sys + ∑_{n=1}^N \qty[H_\bath\nth + \qty(L_n^†B_n + \hc)],
|
|
||||||
\end{equation}
|
|
||||||
where \(N\) is the number of baths, \(H_\sys\) is the (possibly time
|
|
||||||
dependent) system Hamiltonian,
|
|
||||||
\(H_\bath\nth = ∑_λω_λ\nth a_λ^{(n),†}a_λ\nth\),
|
|
||||||
\(B_n=∑_{λ} g_λ\nth a_λ\nth\) and the \(L_n={(\vb{L})}_n\) are
|
|
||||||
arbitrary operators in the system Hilbert space (again possibly time
|
|
||||||
dependent). This models a situation where each bath couples with the
|
|
||||||
system through exactly one spectral density and is therefore not fully
|
|
||||||
general.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We refer to \cref{sec:hops_multibath} for an review of the NMQSD
|
|
||||||
theory and HOPS method for multiple baths.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Because the bath energy change is being calculated directly and not
|
|
||||||
through energy conservation as in~\cite{Kato2016Dec}, we find
|
|
||||||
\begin{equation}
|
|
||||||
\label{eq:general_n_flow}
|
|
||||||
J_n=-\dv{\ev{H_\bath^{(n)}}}{t} = \iu\ev{[H_\bath^{(n)},
|
|
||||||
H_\inter^{(n)}]}
|
|
||||||
\end{equation}
|
|
||||||
regardless of the (non-) commutativity\footnote{For example, the
|
|
||||||
three-level model used in \cite{Uzdin2015Sep,Klatzow2019Mar} has
|
|
||||||
non-commuting couplings.} of the interaction
|
|
||||||
Hamiltonians. Therefore, we can apply the formalism of the previous
|
|
||||||
sections almost unchanged, by taking care that all quantities involved
|
|
||||||
in the expression of \(J_n\) refer to the \(n\)th bath denoted by sub
|
|
||||||
and superscripts.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This can be achieved by making the replacements
|
|
||||||
\begin{equation}
|
|
||||||
\label{eq:replacements}
|
|
||||||
\begin{aligned}
|
|
||||||
D_t \rightarrow D_t^{(n)} &\equiv
|
|
||||||
∫_0^t\dd{s}α_n(t-s)\fdv{η^\ast_n(s)} \\
|
|
||||||
ξ(t) \rightarrow ξ_n(t)&\equiv∑_{\lambda} g^{(n)}_{\lambda}
|
|
||||||
y_{\lambda} \eu^{-\mathrm{i} ω^{(n)}_{\lambda} t}
|
|
||||||
\end{aligned}
|
|
||||||
\end{equation}
|
|
||||||
in the previous sections, where the quantities involved are as in
|
|
||||||
\cref{sec:hops_multibath} and \cref{eq:xiproc}.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In the light of \cref{sec:general_obs} it might be an interesting
|
|
||||||
question what impact mixed bath hierarchy states have. For a cyclic
|
|
||||||
machine with long strokes, where only one bath is coupled to the
|
|
||||||
system at a time, it might be efficient to truncate the hierarchy in a
|
|
||||||
way that discards mixed bath states more readily than single bath
|
|
||||||
hierarchy states as the correlations between the baths are expected to
|
|
||||||
be small.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\section{Generalization to Time Dependent Hamiltonians}
|
|
||||||
\label{sec:timedep}
|
|
||||||
\begin{itemize}
|
|
||||||
\item second important ingredient: external modulation, at least for
|
|
||||||
our purposes here
|
|
||||||
\item again here -> no magic, straight forward
|
|
||||||
\end{itemize}
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The above discussion is based on the model \cref{eq:totalH} which did
|
|
||||||
not include explicit time modulations of \(H_\sys\) or \(L\). As we
|
|
||||||
did not calculate any explicit time derivatives of those two
|
|
||||||
operators, the results of the previous sections remain valid when we
|
|
||||||
substitute
|
|
||||||
\begin{align}
|
|
||||||
\label{eq:timedepsusbs}
|
|
||||||
H_\sys&\rightarrow H_\sys(t) & L\rightarrow L(t).
|
|
||||||
\end{align}
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For the total power we find
|
|
||||||
\begin{equation}
|
|
||||||
\label{eq:power}
|
|
||||||
\dv{\ev{H}}{t} = \ev{\pdv{H_\inter}{t}} + \ev{\pdv{H_\sys}{t}},
|
|
||||||
\end{equation}
|
|
||||||
which can be evaluated as in \cref{sec:intener} by replacing \(L(t)\)
|
|
||||||
with \(\dot{L}(t)\).

|
||||||
|
Here we detail the rest of the calculations omitted in
|
||||||
|
\cref{sec:bathflow}.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
All quantities in \cref{eq:lambdafold} have exponential expansion so
|
||||||
|
that we can now define\footnote{Note that this is inconsistent with
|
||||||
|
\cref{sec:solution}.}

|
