Real-time Monte-Carlo simulations for dissipative tight-binding systems and time local master equations
arXiv:cond-mat/0602078 · doi:10.1016/j.chemphys.2005.07.025
Abstract
The numerically exact path integral Monte Carlo approach for the real-time evolution of dissipative quantum systems (PIMC), particularly suited for systems with discrete configuration space (tight-binding systems), is extended to treat spatially continuous and correlated many-body systems. This way, one has to consider generalized tight-binding lattices with either non-equidistant spacing or in higher dimensions, which in turn allows to analyze to what extent Markovian master equations can be applied beyond the usually studied spin-boson type of models.
