HEOM 1a: Spin-Bath model (introduction)

Introduction

The HEOM method solves the dynamics and steady state of a system and its environment, the latter of which is encoded in a set of auxiliary density matrices.

In this example we show the evolution of a single two-level system in contact with a single Bosonic environment. The properties of the system are encoded in a Hamiltonian, and a coupling operator which describes how it is coupled to the environment.

The Bosonic environment is implicitly assumed to obey a particular Hamiltonian (see paper), the parameters of which are encoded in the spectral density, and subsequently the free-bath correlation functions.

In the example below we show how to model the overdamped Drude-Lorentz Spectral Density, commonly used with the HEOM. We show how to do this using the Matsubara, Pade and fitting decompositions, and compare their convergence.

Drude-Lorentz (overdamped) spectral density

The Drude-Lorentz spectral density is:

$$J_D(\omega)= \frac{2\omega\lambda\gamma}{{\gamma}^2 + \omega^2}$$

where $\lambda$ scales the coupling strength, and $\gamma$ is the cut-off frequency. We use the convention, \begin{equation*} C(t) = \int_0^{\infty} d\omega \frac{J_D(\omega)}{\pi}[\coth(\beta\omega)
\cos(\omega \tau) - i \sin(\omega \tau)] \end{equation*}

With the HEOM we must use an exponential decomposition:

\begin{equation*} C(t)=\sum_{k=0}^{k=\infty} c_k e^{-\nu_k t} \end{equation*}

As an example, the Matsubara decomposition of the Drude-Lorentz spectral density is given by:

\begin{equation*} \nu_k = \begin{cases} \gamma & k = 0\ {2 \pi k} / {\beta } & k \geq 1\ \end{cases} \end{equation*}

\begin{equation*} c_k = \begin{cases} \lambda \gamma (\cot(\beta \gamma / 2) - i)
& k = 0\ 4 \lambda \gamma \nu_k / {(nu_k^2 - \gamma^2)\beta }
& k \geq 1\ \end{cases} \end{equation*}

Note that in the above, and the following, we set $\hbar = k_\mathrm{B} = 1$.

System and bath definition

And let us set up the system Hamiltonian, bath and system measurement operators:

# Defining the system Hamiltonian
eps = 0.5  # Energy of the 2-level system.
Del = 1.0  # Tunnelling term
Hsys = 0.5 * eps * sigmaz() + 0.5 * Del * sigmax()

# Initial state of the system.
rho0 = basis(2, 0) * basis(2, 0).dag()

# System-bath coupling (Drude-Lorentz spectral density)
Q = sigmaz()  # coupling operator

# Bath properties:
gamma = 0.5  # cut off frequency
lam = 0.1  # coupling strength
T = 0.5
beta = 1.0 / T

# HEOM parameters
NC = 5  # cut off parameter for the bath
Nk = 2  # terms in the Matsubara expansion of the correlation function

# Times to solve for
tlist = np.linspace(0, 50, 1000)

# Define some operators with which we will measure the system
# 1,1 element of density matrix - corresonding to groundstate
P11p = basis(2, 0) * basis(2, 0).dag()
P22p = basis(2, 1) * basis(2, 1).dag()
# 1,2 element of density matrix  - corresonding to coherence
P12p = basis(2, 0) * basis(2, 1).dag()

First of all, it is useful to look at the spectral density

Now we are ready to begin. Let's look at the shape of the spectral density given the bath parameters we defined above:

def plot_spectral_density():
    """Plot the Drude-Lorentz spectral density"""
    w = np.linspace(0, 5, 1000)
    J = w * 2 * lam * gamma / (gamma**2 + w**2)

    fig, axes = plt.subplots(1, 1, sharex=True, figsize=(8, 8))
    axes.plot(w, J, "r", linewidth=2)
    axes.set_xlabel(r"$\omega$", fontsize=28)
    axes.set_ylabel(r"J", fontsize=28)


plot_spectral_density()

Next we calculate the exponents using the Matsubara decompositions. Here we split them into real and imaginary parts.

The HEOM code will optimize these, and reduce the number of exponents when real and imaginary parts have the same exponent. This is clearly the case for the first term in the vkAI and vkAR lists.

ckAR, vkAR, ckAI, vkAI = dl_matsubara_params(nk=Nk, lam=lam, gamma=gamma, T=T)

Having created the lists which specify the bath correlation functions, we create a BosonicBath from them and pass the bath to the HEOMSolver class.

The solver constructs the "right hand side" (RHS) determinining how the system and auxiliary density operators evolve in time. This can then be used to solve for dynamics or steady-state.

Below we create the bath and solver and then solve for the dynamics by calling .run(rho0, tlist).

options = {**default_options}

with timer("RHS construction time"):
    bath = BosonicBath(Q, ckAR, vkAR, ckAI, vkAI)
    HEOMMats = HEOMSolver(Hsys, bath, NC, options=options)

with timer("ODE solver time"):
    resultMats = HEOMMats.run(rho0, tlist)

plot_result_expectations(
    [
        (resultMats, P11p, "b", "P11 Mats"),
        (resultMats, P12p, "r", "P12 Mats"),
    ]
);

In practice, one would not perform this laborious expansion for the Drude-Lorentz correlation function, because QuTiP already has a class, DrudeLorentzBath, that can construct this bath for you. Nevertheless, knowing how to perform this expansion will allow you to construct your own baths for other spectral densities.

Below we show how to use this built-in functionality:

# Compare to built-in Drude-Lorentz bath:

with timer("RHS construction time"):
    bath = DrudeLorentzBath(Q, lam=lam, gamma=gamma, T=T, Nk=Nk)
    HEOM_dlbath = HEOMSolver(Hsys, bath, NC, options=options)

with timer("ODE solver time"):
    result_dlbath = HEOM_dlbath.run(rho0, tlist)  # normal  115

plot_result_expectations(
    [
        (result_dlbath, P11p, "b", "P11 (DrudeLorentzBath)"),
        (result_dlbath, P12p, "r", "P12 (DrudeLorentzBath)"),
    ]
);

We also provide a legacy class, HSolverDL, which calculates the Drude-Lorentz correlation functions automatically, to be backwards compatible with the previous HEOM solver in QuTiP:

# Compare to legacy class:

# The legacy class performs the above collation of coefficients automatically,
# based upon the parameters for the Drude-Lorentz spectral density.

with timer("RHS construction time"):
    HEOMlegacy = HSolverDL(Hsys, Q, lam, T, NC, Nk, gamma, options=options)

with timer("ODE solver time"):
    resultLegacy = HEOMlegacy.run(rho0, tlist)  # normal  115

plot_result_expectations(
    [
        (resultLegacy, P11p, "b", "P11 Legacy"),
        (resultLegacy, P12p, "r", "P12 Legacy"),
    ]
);

Ishizaki-Tanimura Terminator

To speed up convergence (in terms of the number of exponents kept in the Matsubara decomposition), We can treat the $Re[C(t=0)]$ component as a delta-function distribution, and include it as Lindblad correction. This is sometimes known as the Ishizaki-Tanimura Terminator.

In more detail, given

\begin{equation*} C(t)=\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} c_k e^{-\nu_k t} \end{equation*}

since $\nu_k=\frac{2 \pi k}{\beta }$, if $1/\nu_k$ is much much smaller than other important time-scales, we can approximate, $ e^{-\nu_k t} \approx \delta(t)/\nu_k$, and $C(t)=\sum_{k=N_k}^{\infty} \frac{c_k}{\nu_k} \delta(t)$

It is convenient to calculate the whole sum $ C(t)=\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \frac{c_k}{\nu_k} = 2 \lambda / (\beta \gamma)

i\lambda $ , and subtract off the contribution from the finite number of Matsubara terms that are kept in the hierarchy, and treat the residual as a Lindblad.

This is clearer if we plot the correlation function with a large number of Matsubara terms:

def plot_correlation_expansion_divergence():
    """We plot the correlation function with a large number of Matsubara terms
    to show that the real part is slowly diverging at t = 0.
    """
    t = np.linspace(0, 2, 100)

    # correlation coefficients with 15k and 2 terms
    corr_15k = dl_corr_approx(t, 15_000)
    corr_2 = dl_corr_approx(t, 2)

    fig, ax1 = plt.subplots(figsize=(12, 7))

    ax1.plot(
        t, np.real(corr_2), color="b", linewidth=3, label=r"Mats = 2 real"
    )
    ax1.plot(
        t, np.imag(corr_2), color="r", linewidth=3, label=r"Mats = 2 imag"
    )
    ax1.plot(
        t, np.real(corr_15k), "b--", linewidth=3, label=r"Mats = 15000 real"
    )
    ax1.plot(
        t, np.imag(corr_15k), "r--", linewidth=3, label=r"Mats = 15000 imag"
    )

    ax1.set_xlabel("t")
    ax1.set_ylabel(r"$C$")

Let us evaluate the result including this Ishizaki-Tanimura terminator:

# Run HEOM solver and include the Ishizaki-Tanimura terminator

# Notes:
#
# * when using the built-in DrudeLorentzBath, the terminator (L_bnd) is
#   available from bath.terminator().
#
# * in the legacy HSolverDL function the terminator is included automatically
#   if the parameter bnd_cut_approx=True is used.

op = -2 * spre(Q) * spost(Q.dag()) + spre(Q.dag() * Q) + spost(Q.dag() * Q)

approx_factr = (2 * lam / (beta * gamma)) - 1j * lam

approx_factr -= lam * gamma * (-1.0j + cot(gamma / (2 * T))) / gamma
for k in range(1, Nk + 1):
    vk = 2 * np.pi * k * T

    approx_factr -= (4 * lam * gamma * T * vk / (vk**2 - gamma**2)) / vk

L_bnd = -approx_factr * op

Ltot = -1.0j * (spre(Hsys) - spost(Hsys)) + L_bnd
Ltot = liouvillian(Hsys) + L_bnd

options = {**default_options, "rtol": 1e-14, "atol": 1e-14}

with timer("RHS construction time"):
    bath = BosonicBath(Q, ckAR, vkAR, ckAI, vkAI)
    HEOMMatsT = HEOMSolver(Ltot, bath, NC, options=options)

with timer("ODE solver time"):
    resultMatsT = HEOMMatsT.run(rho0, tlist)

plot_result_expectations(
    [
        (resultMatsT, P11p, "b", "P11 Mats + Term"),
        (resultMatsT, P12p, "r", "P12 Mats + Term"),
    ]
);

Or using the built-in Drude-Lorentz bath we can write simply:

options = {**default_options, "rtol": 1e-14, "atol": 1e-14}

with timer("RHS construction time"):
    bath = DrudeLorentzBath(Q, lam=lam, gamma=gamma, T=T, Nk=Nk)
    _, terminator = bath.terminator()
    Ltot = liouvillian(Hsys) + terminator
    HEOM_dlbath_T = HEOMSolver(Ltot, bath, NC, options=options)

with timer("ODE solver time"):
    result_dlbath_T = HEOM_dlbath_T.run(rho0, tlist)

plot_result_expectations(
    [
        (result_dlbath_T, P11p, "b", "P11 Mats (DrudeLorentzBath + Term)"),
        (result_dlbath_T, P12p, "r", "P12 Mats (DrudeLorentzBath + Term)"),
    ]
);

We can compare the solution obtained from the QuTiP Bloch-Redfield solver:

DL = (
    f"2*pi* 2.0 * {lam} / (pi * {gamma} * {beta}) if (w == 0) else "
    f"2*pi*(2.0*{lam}*{gamma} *w /(pi*(w**2+{gamma}**2))) "
    f"* ((1/(exp((w) * {beta})-1))+1)"
)
options = {**default_options}

with timer("ODE solver time"):
    resultBR = brmesolve(
        Hsys, rho0, tlist, a_ops=[[sigmaz(), DL]], options=options
    )

plot_result_expectations(
    [
        (resultMats, P11p, "b", "P11 Mats"),
        (resultMats, P12p, "r", "P12 Mats"),
        (resultMatsT, P11p, "b--", "P11 Mats + Term"),
        (resultMatsT, P12p, "r--", "P12 Mats + Term"),
        (resultBR, P11p, "g--", "P11 Bloch Redfield"),
        (resultBR, P12p, "g--", "P12 Bloch Redfield"),
    ]
);

The Padé decomposition of the Drude-Lorentz bath is also available via a built-in class, DrudeLorentzPadeBath bath. Like DrudeLorentzBath, one can obtain the terminator by calling bath.terminator().

Below we show how to use the built-in Padé Drude-Lorentz bath and its terminator (although the terminator does not provide much improvement here, because the Padé expansion already fits the correlation function well):

options = {**default_options, "rtol": 1e-14, "atol": 1e-14}

with timer("RHS construction time"):
    bath = DrudeLorentzPadeBath(Q, lam=lam, gamma=gamma, T=T, Nk=Nk)
    _, terminator = bath.terminator()
    Ltot = liouvillian(Hsys) + terminator
    HEOM_dlpbath_T = HEOMSolver(Ltot, bath, NC, options=options)

with timer("ODE solver time"):
    result_dlpbath_T = HEOM_dlpbath_T.run(rho0, tlist)

plot_result_expectations(
    [
        (result_dlpbath_T, P11p, "b", "P11 Padé (DrudeLorentzBath + Term)"),
        (result_dlpbath_T, P12p, "r", "P12 Padé (DrudeLorentzBath + Term)"),
    ]
);

Next we compare the Matsubara and Pade correlation function fits

This is not efficient for this example, but can be extremely useful in situations where large number of exponents are needed (e.g., near zero temperature).

First we collect a large sum of Matsubara terms for many time steps:

tlist2 = np.linspace(0, 2, 10000)

corr_15k_t10k = dl_corr_approx(tlist2, 15_000)

corrRana = np.real(corr_15k_t10k)
corrIana = np.imag(corr_15k_t10k)

We then fit this sum with standard least-squares approach:

def wrapper_fit_func(x, N, args):
    """ Fit function wrapper that unpacks its arguments. """
    x = np.array(x)
    a = np.array(args[:N])
    b = np.array(args[N:2 * N])
    return fit_func(x, a, b)


def fit_func(x, a, b):
    """ Fit function. Calculates the value of the
        correlation function at each x, given the
        fit parameters in a and b.
    """
    return np.sum(
        a[:, None] * np.exp(np.multiply.outer(b, x)),
        axis=0,
    )


def fitter(ans, tlist, k):
    """ Compute fit with k exponents. """
    upper_a = abs(max(ans, key=abs)) * 10
    # sets initial guesses:
    guess = (
        [upper_a / k] * k +  # guesses for a
        [0] * k  # guesses for b
    )
    # sets lower bounds:
    b_lower = (
        [-upper_a] * k +  # lower bounds for a
        [-np.inf] * k  # lower bounds for b
    )
    # sets higher bounds:
    b_higher = (
        [upper_a] * k +  # upper bounds for a
        [0] * k  # upper bounds for b
    )
    param_bounds = (b_lower, b_higher)
    p1, p2 = curve_fit(
        lambda x, *params_0: wrapper_fit_func(x, k, params_0),
        tlist,
        ans,
        p0=guess,
        sigma=[0.01 for t in tlist],
        bounds=param_bounds,
        maxfev=1e8,
    )
    a, b = p1[:k], p1[k:]
    return (a, b)

kR = 4  # number of exponents to use for real part
poptR = []
with timer("Correlation (real) fitting time"):
    for i in range(kR):
        poptR.append(fitter(corrRana, tlist2, i + 1))

corrRMats = np.real(dl_corr_approx(tlist2, Nk))

kI = 1  # number of exponents for imaginary part
poptI = []
with timer("Correlation (imaginary) fitting time"):
    for i in range(kI):
        poptI.append(fitter(corrIana, tlist2, i + 1))

And plot the results of the fits:

plt.plot(tlist2, corrRana, label="Analytic")
plt.plot(tlist2, corrRMats, label="Matsubara")

for i in range(kR):
    y = fit_func(tlist2, *poptR[i])
    plt.plot(tlist2, y, label=f"Fit with {i} terms")

plt.title("Fit to correlations (real part)")
plt.legend()
plt.show()

plt.plot(tlist2, corrIana, label="Analytic")

for i in range(kI):
    y = fit_func(tlist2, *poptI[i])
    plt.plot(tlist2, y, label=f"Fit with {i} terms")

plt.title("Fit to correlations (imaginary part)")
plt.legend()
plt.show()

# Set the exponential coefficients from the fit parameters

ckAR1 = poptR[-1][0]
ckAR = [x + 0j for x in ckAR1]

vkAR1 = poptR[-1][1]
vkAR = [-x + 0j for x in vkAR1]

ckAI1 = poptI[-1][0]
ckAI = [x + 0j for x in ckAI1]

vkAI1 = poptI[-1][1]
vkAI = [-x + 0j for x in vkAI1]

# overwrite imaginary fit with analytical value (not much reason to use the
# fit for this)

ckAI = [lam * gamma * (-1.0) + 0.0j]
vkAI = [gamma + 0.0j]

options = {**default_options}

NC = 4

with timer("RHS construction time"):
    bath = BosonicBath(Q, ckAR, vkAR, ckAI, vkAI)
    HEOMFit = HEOMSolver(Hsys, bath, NC, options=options)

with timer("ODE solver time"):
    resultFit = HEOMFit.run(rho0, tlist)

plot_result_expectations(
    [
        (resultFit, P11p, "b", "P11 Fit"),
        (resultFit, P12p, "r", "P12 Fit"),
    ]
);

A reaction coordinate approach

Here we construct a reaction coordinate inspired model to capture the steady-state behavior, and compare to the HEOM prediction. This result is more accurate for narrow spectral densities. We will use the population and coherence from this cell in our final plot below.

dot_energy, dot_state = Hsys.eigenstates()
deltaE = dot_energy[1] - dot_energy[0]

gamma2 = deltaE / (2 * np.pi * gamma)
wa = 2 * np.pi * gamma2 * gamma  # reaction coordinate frequency
g = np.sqrt(np.pi * wa * lam / 2.0)  # reaction coordinate coupling
# reaction coordinate coupling factor over 2 because of diff in J(w)
# (it is 2 lam now):
g = np.sqrt(
    np.pi * wa * lam / 4.0
)  #

NRC = 10

Hsys_exp = tensor(qeye(NRC), Hsys)
Q_exp = tensor(qeye(NRC), Q)
a = tensor(destroy(NRC), qeye(2))

H0 = wa * a.dag() * a + Hsys_exp
# interaction
H1 = g * (a.dag() + a) * Q_exp

H = H0 + H1

energies, states = H.eigenstates()
rhoss = 0 * states[0] * states[0].dag()
for kk, energ in enumerate(energies):
    rhoss += states[kk] * states[kk].dag() * np.exp(-beta * energies[kk])

rhoss = rhoss / rhoss.norm()


class ReactionCoordinateResult:
    def __init__(self, states, times):
        self.states = states
        self.times = times


resultRC = ReactionCoordinateResult([rhoss] * len(tlist), tlist)

P12RC = tensor(qeye(NRC), basis(2, 0) * basis(2, 1).dag())
P11RC = tensor(qeye(NRC), basis(2, 0) * basis(2, 0).dag())

Let's plot all our results

And that's the end of a detailed first dive into modeling bosonic environments with the HEOM.

Testing

This section can include some tests to verify that the expected outputs are generated within the notebook. We put this section at the end of the notebook, so it's not interfering with the user experience. Please, define the tests using assert, so that the cell execution fails if a wrong output is generated.

# Check P11p
assert np.allclose(
    expect(P11p, resultMatsT.states),
    expect(P11p, resultPade.states),
    rtol=1e-2,
)
assert np.allclose(
    expect(P11p, resultMatsT.states),
    expect(P11p, resultFit.states),
    rtol=1e-2,
