New algorithm learns structure of open quantum systems

Researchers have developed a novel algorithm for learning the coefficients of an n-qubit Lindbladian, a mathematical model used to describe open quantum systems. This algorithm achieves several key desiderata, including non-adaptive measurements, operation without prior knowledge of the Lindbladian's structure, and support for learning quasi-local and power-law Lindbladians. The method employs an iterative approach focused on Fourier coefficients and identifies unique challenges in open systems termed "confusing" terms, with improved performance when this confusion is limited. The work also presents simpler algorithms for structure learning of Hamiltonians from real-time evolution and efficient algorithms for learning from high-temperature Gibbs states. AI
