Non-Markovianity of the nonlinear Caldeira-Leggett model — •Moritz F. Richter and Heinz-Peter Breuer — Institute of Physics, University of Freiburg, Germany

Employing the simulation method of the hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM), we investigate the nonlinear Caldeira-Legget model, a paradigmatic microscopic system-reservoir model used in open system theory. In particular, we study the impact of a nonlinear coupling of the open system to the reservoir modes on the size of memory effects quantified by the trace distance based measure for non-Markovianity [1]. We also discuss the role of instabilities of the HEOM method and how these influence the numerical determination of the non-Markovianity measure.
