Symmetries of Liouvillians of squeeze-driven parametric oscillators

Abstract

We study the symmetries of the Liouville superoperator of one dimensional parametric oscillators, especially the so-called squeeze-driven Kerr oscillator, and discover a remarkable quasi-spin symmetry $su(2)$ at integer values of the ratio $\eta =\omega /K$ of the detuning parameter $\omega$ to the Kerr coefficient $K$, which reflects the symmetry previously found for the Hamiltonian operator. We find that the Liouvillian of an $su(2)$ representation $|j,m_j⟩$ has a characteristic double-ellipsoidal structure, and calculate the relaxation time $T_X$ for this structure. We then study the phase transitions of the Liouvillian which occur as a function of the parameters $\xi ={\epsilon }_2/K$ and $\eta =\omega /K$. Finally, we study the temperature dependence of the spectrum of eigenvalues of the Liouvillian. Our findings may have applications in the generation and stabilization of states of interest in quantum computing.
