  • Title: Sparse polynomial space approach to dissipative quantum systems: application to the sub-ohmic spin-boson model.
    Author: Alvermann A, Fehske H.
    Journal: Phys Rev Lett; 2009 Apr 17; 102(15):150601. PubMed ID: 19518610.
    Abstract:
    We propose a general numerical approach to open quantum systems with a coupling to bath degrees of freedom. The technique combines the methodology of polynomial expansions of spectral functions with the sparse grid concept from interpolation theory. Thereby we construct a Hilbert space of moderate dimension to represent the bath degrees of freedom, which allows us to perform highly accurate and efficient calculations of static, spectral, and dynamic quantities using standard exact diagonalization algorithms. The strength of the approach is demonstrated for the phase transition, critical behavior, and dissipative spin dynamics in the spin-boson model.
