Finite-frequency noise in non-Markovian systems: A Markovian embedding approach (2012.01856v1)

Abstract: I present an approach to calculate the finite-frequency quantum noise in systems strongly coupled to structured reservoirs based on the Markovian embedding. This technique consists of mapping of the non-Markovian dynamics of the original system onto the Markovian dynamics of the extended supersystem. The applicability of this method is demonstrated on a single electronic level coupled to a reservoir with an energy-dependent density of states. This model can be mapped onto an equivalent double-level system whose dynamics is governed by an exact Markovian master equation. It is demonstrated that the presented approach provides a way to describe genuinely quantum effects, such as the asymmetry of the absorption and the emission noise, as well as to deal with non-Markovian effects and intra-system interactions on equal footing.
