The classical simulation of the dynamics of open 1D quantum systems with matrix product algorithms can often be significantly improved by performing time evolution in the Heisenberg picture [1]. For a closed system that is quadratic in fermionic (or bosonic) fields, the time-evolution of a creation operator can be represented exactly with matrices of dimension two for arbitrary long times. Here we show that this exact solution can be significantly generalized to include the case of an open quadratic fermi chain subjected to master equation evolution with Lindblad operators that are linear in the fermionic operators [2].
