Operator Entanglement in Quantum Dynamics Simulations: Formalism and Analysis Tools

Tzu Yu Wang, Michael Schuurman, Simon Neville

We review the framework of operator Hilbert space and introduce the one- and two-particle super reduced density matrices (1-SRDMs and 2-SRDMs), as well as the super mutual informat…
