Accurate Long-Time Mixed Quantum-Classical Liouville Dynamics via the Transfer Tensor Method.

In this Letter, we combine the recently introduced transfer tensor method with the mixed quantum-classical Liouville method. The resulting protocol provides an accurate, general, flexible and robust new route for simulating the reduced dynamics of the quantum subsystem for arbitrarily long times, starting with computationally feasible short-time mixed quantum-classical Liouville dynamical maps. The accuracy and feasibility of the methodology are demonstrated on a spin-boson benchmark model.
