We present a scheme to efficiently simulate nonreciprocal many-body spin models using a non-Markovian open system. Our scheme utilizes a single quantum emitter coupled to a waveguide mode that is fed back to the same emitter after a time delay. With this coherent delayed feedback, an effective nonreciprocal interaction can be engineered, wherein the emitter at earlier times affects itself at later times, creating a scalable spin chain. We show that all the steady-state quantities of such spin models can be accessed through measurement of the emitter and the output field. Furthermore, using classical feedback that resets the emitter, quench dynamics from arbitrary product states can be simulated. We demonstrate striking features of nonreciprocal models, such as the Liouvillian skin effect, anomalous relaxation dynamics, and quasi-long-range order of output photons. Finally, we show that the proposal is amenable to experimental realization and robust to imperfections. Our work establishes a feasible way to scale up a nonreciprocal many-body system, and provides a new route towards generation of exotic states of light.
Quantum systems are invariably coupled to a surrounding environment. A common theoretical method to simplify the problem is to trace over the environment under a Markov approximation, which assumes that the environment holds no memory over the timescales that the system evolves under. In interacting many-body systems,...
When quantum particles interact, many-body phenomena that are hard to simulate classically emerge. Quantum analog simulation offers an alternative in which the target system's dynamics is directly realized in controllable quantum hardware. Here, we give a general protocol for simulating the Bose-Hubbard and anyon-Hubba...

Applications of quantum devices and simulators require an accurate understanding of their dynamics as well as the effects of environmental noise. While some sources of noise can be modeled as Markovian dissipation, coupling to resonators or vibrational modes often produces non-Markovian dynamics as well, making it diff...
Exciton-polaritons, hybrid light-matter quasiparticles formed when a material interacts with a confined electric field, have experimentally been shown to exhibit mesoscale coherent quantum propagation that remains robust at room temperature. However, an accurate and direct quantum dynamical simulation of this phenomeno...

We introduce and characterize a scheme for emulating non-Markovian quantum system-bath dynamics using the discrete electromagnetic field modes of a parametrically driven cavity. In this scheme, the character of a bosonic bath (the form of the bath spectral density) is tied directly to the shape of the real-time wavefor...

Quantum optomechanics (QOM) explores the interaction between a quantum field, often confined in a cavity, and the quantum motion of mirrors, membranes or material media, usually assumed slow enough with negligible particle production, which is the central concern of dynamical Casimir effects, and a drive laser field fo...
