Quantum dynamics of large molecular complexes using stochastic pure states — •Panpan Zhang and Alexander Eisfeld — MPIPKS Dresden

The Hierarchy of Pure States (HOPS)[1] is a stochastic method to efficiently solve non-Markovian open quantum system dynamics. It can also be used to calculate the linear [2] and nonlinear [3] spectra of molecular aggregates. Here we discuss the application of HOPS to these aggregates and present a new scheme how to truncate the hierarchy, which allows to treat large systems with complex environments.
