Well controlled quantum systems can potentially be used as quantum simulators. However inevitably a quantum simulator is perturbed by coupling to additional degrees of freedom. This constitutes a major roadblock to useful quantum simulations, since so far there are only a limited amount of possibilities to understand the effects of these perturbation on the result of the quantum simulation. We present a method which in limited circumstances, allows for the reconstruction of the ideal result from measurements on a perturbed quantum simulator. We study the case where we are interested in extracting a correlator ⟨Ôi(t) Ôj(0)⟩ from the simulated system in equilibrium, where Ôi are the operators which couple the system to its environment. The ideal correlator can be reconstructed if any n-time correlator of operators Ôi of the ideal system can be written as products of two-time correlators. We give an approach to verify the validity of this assumption experimentally using additional measurements on the perturbed quantum simulator.
