The influence of dissipation on the quantum-classical correspondence: Stability of stochastic trajectories

The quantum-classical correspondence in the presence of dissipation is studied. The semiclassical expression for the linear response function of an anharmonic system is expressed in a series containing classical stability matrix elements, which can diverge due to the chaotic behavior of stochastic t...

520 |a The quantum-classical correspondence in the presence of dissipation is studied. The semiclassical expression for the linear response function of an anharmonic system is expressed in a series containing classical stability matrix elements, which can diverge due to the chaotic behavior of stochastic trajectories. The presence of dissipation in most cases removes the divergence of higher-order correction terms, thus suppressing quantum effects and making the system more classical. The regime of system-bath coupling, which makes quantum dynamics completely classical, is obtained in terms of friction, temperature, and anharmonicity. Special cases when bath coupling may lead to enhancement of quantum effects are discussed.
