Correlations, decoherence, dissipation, and noise in quantum field theory,” hep-th/9501040

2016

The statistical mechanical properties of interacting quantum fields in terms of the dynamics of the correlation functions are investigated. We show how the Dyson-Schwinger equations may be derived from a formal action functional, the n-particle irreducible (nP I, n → ∞) or the 'master' effective action. It is related to the decoherence functional between histories defined in terms of correlations. Upon truncation of the Dyson-Schwinger hierarchy at a certain order, the master effective action becomes complex, its imaginary part arising from the higher order correlation functions, the fluctuations of which we define as the correlation noises of that order. Decoherence of correlation histories via these noises gives rise to classical stochastic histories Ordinary quantum field theory corresponds to taking the lowest order functions, usually the mean field and the 2-point functions. As such, our reasoning shows that it is an effective theory which can be intrinsically dissipative. The relation of loop expansion and correlation order as well as the introduction of an arrow of time from the choice of boundary conditions are expounded with regard to the origin of dissipation in quantum fields. Relation with critical phenomena, quantum transport, molecular hydrodynamics and potential applications to quantum gravity, early universe processes and black hole physics are mentioned.

Correlations, Decoherence, Dissipation, and Noise in Quantum Field Theory
Bei-lok Hu, esteban calzetta

1995

The statistical mechanical properties of interacting quantum fields in terms of the dynamics of the correlation functions are investigated. We show how the Dyson - Schwinger equations may be derived from a formal action functional, the n-particle irreducible ($nPI, n \to \infty$) or the `master' effective action. It is related to the decoherence functional between histories defined in terms of correlations. Upon truncation of the Dyson - Schwinger hierarchy at a certain order, the master effective action becomes complex, its imaginary part arising from the higher order correlation functions, the fluctuations of which we define as the correlation noises of that order. Decoherence of correlation histories via these noises gives rise to classical stochastic histories %driven by the flucutations of these higher correlation functions. Ordinary quantum field theory corresponds to taking the lowest order functions, usually the mean field and the 2-point functions. As such, our reasoning shows that it is an effective theory which can be intrinsically dissipative. The relation of loop expansion and correlation order as well as the introduction of an arrow of time from the choice of boundary conditions are expounded with regard to the origin of dissipation in quantum fields. Relation with critical phenomena, quantum transport, molecular hydrodynamics and potential applications to quantum gravity, early universe processes and black hole physics are mentioned.

Quantum 1/f Noise --a Decoherence Phenomenon
Peter Handel

2019

Our quantum theory of fundamental 1/f noise anticipated since 1975, and used, the theory of decoherence, which was developed two decades later. The quantum theory of the conventional and coherent quantum 1/f effects started precisely from the mixture of states selected by the interaction with the environment, with random phases, states later called "einselected states." The two quantum 1/f effects are thus both "infrared divergence" and "decoherence" phenomena that include the interaction with the rest of the world. This misunderstanding, initiated by van Kampen and two others, delayed progress by 40 years.

A quantum model for voltage noise: Theory and Experiments
Jose Ignacio Izpura

arXiv (Cornell University), 2017

Although the Fluctuation-Dissipation framework is a first step to get a quantum model for electrical noise, the merging of displacement and conduction currents into the sole current of a series notion like the resistance R(f) does not help in it this task. Used to handle these currents as orthogonal components in electromagnetic waves, the usage of the impedance Z(jf)=R(f)+jX(f) for the noisy device hides the way it interacts with its thermal bath. In contrast to this, the admittance Y(jf) is a parallel notion directly linked with the aforementioned interaction that has led us to develop a discrete model for current fluctuations where single electrons randomly shuttling between any pair of terminals generate the voltage noise we can measure between them.

Quantum approach to1fnoise
Peter Handel

Physical Review A, 1980

On the basis of the known experimental properties of 1/f noise, some previous models are analyzed. The presence of 1/f noise in the simplest systems such as beams of charged particles in vacuum, the existence of 1/f noise in currents limited by the surface recombination rate, bulk recombination rate, or by the finite mobility determined by interaction with the phonons in solids, suggests a fundamental fluctuation of the corresponding elementary cross sections. This leads to fluctuations of the kinetic transport coeAicients such as mobility jM, or recombination speed, observable both in equilibrium and nonequilibrium. In the first case the available Johnson noise power kT, determined by the Nyquist theorem, is free of this type of 1/f fluctuation. An elementary calculation is presented which shows that any cross section, or process rate, involving charged particles, exhibits 1/f noise as an infrared phenomenon. For single-particle processes, the experimental value of Hooge s constant is obtained as an upper limit, corresponding to very large velocity changes of the current carriers, close to the speed of light. The obtained sin'(8/2) dependence on the mean scattering angle predicts much lower 1/f noise for (low-angle) impurity scattering, showing a strong (p /p"tg noise increase with temperature at the transition to lattice scattering. This is in qualitative agreement with measurements on thin films and on heavily doped semiconductors, or on manganin. The theory is based on the infrared quasidivergence present in all cross sections (and in some autocorrelation functions) due to interaction of the current carriers with massless infraquanta: photons, electron- hole pair excitations at metallic Fermi surfaces, generalized spin waves, transverse phonons, hydrodynamic excitations of other quanta, very 1ow-energy excitations of quasidegenerate states observed, e.g. , in disordered materials, at surfaces, or at lattice imperfections, etc. The observed 1/f noise is the sum of these contributions, and can be used to detect and study new infraquanta.

Effects of noise, correlations, and errors in the preparation of initial states in quantum simulations
Mark Byrd

Physical Review A, 2012

In principle a quantum system could be used to simulate another quantum system. The purpose of such a simulation would be to obtain information about problems which cannot be simulated with a classical computer due to the exponential increase of the Hilbert space with the size of the system and which cannot be measured or controlled in an actual experiment. The system will interact with the surrounding environment, with the other particles in the system and be implemented using imperfect controls making it subject to noise. It has been suggested that noise does not need to be controlled to the same extent as it must be for general quantum computing. However the effects of noise in quantum simulations and how to treat them are not completely understood. In this paper we study an existing quantum algorithm for the one-dimensional Fano-Anderson model to be simulated using a liquid-state NMR device. We calculate the evolution of different initial states in the original model, and then we add interacting spins to simulate a more realistic situation. We find that states which are entangled with their environment, and sometimes correlated but not necessarily entangled have an evolution which is described by maps which are not completely positive. We discuss the conditions for this to occur and also the implications.

Bogoliubov’s causal perturbative QED and white noise. Interacting fields
Jaroslaw Wawrzycki

Theoretical and Mathematical Physics

We present the Bogoliubov's causal perturbative QFT, which includes only one refinement: the creation-annihilation operators at a point, i.e. for a specific momentum, are mathematically interpreted as the Hida operators from the white noise analysis. We leave the rest of the theory completely unchanged. This allows avoiding infrared-and ultraviolet -divergences in the transition to the adiabatic limit for interacting fields. We present here existence proof of the adiabatic limit for interacting fields in causal QED with Hida operators. This limit exists if and only if the normalization in the Epstein-Glaser splitting of the causal distributions, in the construction of the scattering operator, is "natural", and thus eliminates arbitrariness in the choice of the splitting making the theory definite, with its predictive power considerably strengthened. For example, we present a charge-mass relation which can be proved within this theory, and which is confirmed experimentally.

Quantum dynamics with stochastic gauge simulations
Peter Drummond

Journal of Optics B: Quantum and Semiclassical Optics, 2003

The general idea of a stochastic gauge representation is introduced and compared with more traditional phase-space expansions, like the Wigner expansion. Stochastic gauges can be used to obtain an infinite class of positive-definite stochastic time-evolution equations, equivalent to master equations, for many systems including quantum time evolution. The method is illustrated with a variety of simple examples ranging from astrophysical molecular hydrogen production, through to the topical problem of Bose-Einstein condensation in an optical trap and the resulting quantum dynamics.

Quantum simulation using noisy unitary circuits and measurements
Arijeet Pal

2021

Many-body quantum systems are notoriously hard to study theoretically due to the exponential growth of their Hilbert space. It is also challenging to probe the quantum correlations in many-body states in experiments due to their sensitivity to external noise. Using synthetic quantum matter to simulate quantum systems has opened new ways of probing quantum many-body systems with unprecedented control, and of engineering phases of matter which are otherwise hard to find in nature. Noisy quantum circuits have become an important cornerstone of our understanding of quantum many-body dynamics. In particular, random circuits act as minimally structured toy models for chaotic nonintegrable quantum systems, faithfully reproducing some of their universal properties. Crucially, in contrast to the full microscopic model, random circuits can be analytically tractable under a reasonable set of assumptions, thereby providing invaluable insights into questions which might be out of reach even for ...

Improving the signal-to-noise ratio in lattice gauge theories
Kurt Langfeld

Physical Review D, 1997

Renormalization of composite fields is employed to suppress the statistical noise in lattice gauge calculations. We propose a new action which differs from the standard Wilson action by "irrelevant" operators, but suppresses the fluctuations of the plaquette. We numerically study the Creutz ratios and find a scaling window. The SU(2) mass gap is estimated. We prove that the contributions of the "irrelevant" operators to the screening mass decrease towards the continuum limit. The results obtained from the action with noise suppression are compared with those of the standard Wilson action.

Quantum current noise from a Born-Markov master equation
P. Kirton, Fabio Pistolesi

Physical Review B, 2012

We present a formalism for calculating the non-symmetrized quantum current noise within the Born-Markov approximation for the master equation. The formalism is particularly well suited to obtaining the current noise for quantum transport in mesoscopic devices such as a superconducting single electron transistor (SSET). As an example of the method, we obtain explicit results for the double Josephson-quasiparticle (DJQP) resonance in a SSET. Our calculations reveal the asymmetries that develop in the current noise as well as clarifying the behavior at high frequencies. Our findings are consistent with recent measurements of the asymmetry in the current noise spectrum. PACS numbers: 42.50.Lc, 72.70.+m, Electrical circuits have long provided a test-bed for studying fluctuations and noise . Recent attention has focused on using mesoscopic circuits to probe differences between quantum and classical noise far from equilibrium . Classically, the correlation function describing the average of the product of currents measured at two times is real and symmetric with respect to time. In contrast, in quantum mechanics current is described by an operator which need not commute with itself at different times, leading to quantum current correlation functions that are complex and asymmetric. The asymmetry in quantum correlation functions ultimately arises because the probabilities of a quantum system emitting or absorbing a given amount of energy are not in general the same [2, 3]. The spectral density of the quantum current fluctuations, S I (ω), is real but asymmetric in frequency and can be measured by coupling the circuit to a mesoscopic detector and measuring the energy absorbed/emitted . Asymmetry in S I (ω) has been observed in superconducting tunnel junctions , quantum point contacts , a carbon nanotube quantum dot in the Kondo regime [10] and superconducting single electron transistors (SSETs) .

Dissipation, Noise, and Vacuum Decay in Quantum Field Theory
Enric Verdaguer

Physical Review Letters, 2001

We study the process of vacuum decay in quantum field theory focusing on the stochastic aspects of the interaction between long and short-wavelength modes. This interaction results in a diffusive behavior of the reduced Wigner function describing the state of the long-wavelength modes, and thereby to a finite activation rate even at zero temperature. This effect can make a substantial contribution to the total decay rate.
