Auxiliary open quantum system for the Floquet quantum master equation (2011.07309v1)

Abstract: By directly using the probability formulas of quantum trajectories, we construct an auxiliary open quantum system for a periodically driven open quantum system whose dynamics is governed by the Floquet quantum master equation. This auxiliary system can generate a quantum trajectory ensemble that is consistent with the canonical quantum trajectory ensemble. We find that, at a long time limit, though the Lindblad operators are modified, the coherent dynamics of the auxiliary system is the same as that of the original system. A periodically driven two-level quantum system is used to illustrate this construction.
