Dynamical Triplet Unravelling: A quantum Monte Carlo algorithm for reversible dynamics

We introduce a quantum Monte Carlo method to simulate the reversible dynamics of correlated many-body systems. Our method is based on the Laplace transform of the time-evolution operator which, as opposed to most quantum Monte Carlo methods, makes it possible to access the dynamics at longer times. The Monte Carlo trajectories are realised through a piece-wise stochastic-deterministic reversible evolution where free dynamics is interspersed with two-process quantum jumps. The dynamical sign problem is bypassed via the so-called deadweight approximation, which stabilizes the many-body phases at longer times. We benchmark our method by simulating spin excitation propagation in the XXZ model and dynamical confinement in the quantum Ising chain, and show how to extract dynamical information from the Laplace representation.
