Thermal equilibrium in Gaussian dynamical semigroups
arXiv:2207.05151 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.106.062207
Abstract
We characterize all Gaussian dynamical semigroups in continuous variables quantum systems of n-bosonic modes which have a thermal Gibbs state as a stationary solution. This is performed through an explicit relation between the diffusion and dissipation matrices, which characterize the semigroup dynamic, and the covariance matrix of the thermal equilibrium state. We also show that Alicki's quantum detailed-balance condition, based on a Gelfand-Naimark-Segal inner product, allows the determination of the temperature dependence of the diffusion and dissipation matrices, and the identification of different Gaussian dynamical semigroups which shares the same thermal equilibrium state.
