Full spectrum of the Liouvillian of open dissipative quantum systems in the Zeno limit

14 Jan 2021  ·  Vladislav Popkov, Carlo Presilla ·

We consider an open quantum system with dissipation, described by a Lindblad Master equation (LME). For dissipation locally acting and sufficiently strong, a separation of the relaxation time scales occurs, which, in terms of the eigenvalues of the Liouvillian, implies a grouping of the latter in distinct vertical stripes in the complex plane at positions determined by the eigenvalues of the dissipator. We derive effective LME equations describing the modes within each stripe separately, and solve them perturbatively, obtaining for the full set of eigenvalues and eigenstates of the Liouvillian explicit expressions correct at order $1/\Gamma$ included, where $\Gamma$ is the strength of the dissipation. As a example, we apply our general results to quantum $XYZ$ spin chains coupled, at one boundary, to a dissipative bath of polarization.
