Abstract We investigate circuit complexity to characterize chaos in multiparticle quantum systems. In the process, we take a stride to analyze open quantum systems by using complexity. We propose a new diagnostic of quantum chaos from complexity based on the reduced density matrix by exploring different types of quantum circuits. Through explicit calculations on a toy model of two coupled harmonic oscillators, where one or both of the oscillators are inverted, we demonstrate that the evolution of complexity is a possible diagnostic of chaos.

A multi-particle extension of the Arnol’d cat Hamiltonian system is presented, which can serve as a fully dynamical model of decoherence. The behavior of the von Neumann entropy of the reduced density matrix is studied, in time and as a function of the physical parameters, with special regard to increasing the mass of the cat particle.

We investigate the time evolution of the reduced density matrix (RDM) and its purity in the dynamics of a two-level system coupled to a dissipative harmonic bath, when the system is initially placed in one of its eigenstates.
