Floquet stroboscopic divisibility in non-Markovian dynamicsFloquet stroboscopic divisibility in non-Markovian dynamics Peer-Reviewed Journal Publication Δημοσίευση σε Περιοδικό με Κριτές 2019-06-062018enWe provide a general description of a time-local master equation for a system coupled to a non-Markovian reservoir based on Floquet theory. This allows us to have a divisible dynamical map at discrete times, which we refer to as Floquet stroboscopic divisibility. We illustrate the theory by considering a harmonic oscillator coupled to both non-Markovian and Markovian baths. Our findings provide us with a theory for the exact calculation of spectral properties of time-local non-Markovian Liouvillian operators, and might shed light on the nature and existence of the steady state in non-Markovian dynamics.http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/New Journal of Physics209Bastidas_et_al_New J.
