Abstract

This paper proposes a distributed computing framework for solving the Lindblad master equation in large-dimensional cavity QED systems. By leveraging the sparsity of the jump operator and combining this approach with the Cannon algorithm, the computational complexity of non-unitary terms is reduced from O(MN3)O(MN^3) to O(MN)O(MN). For unitary terms, a combination of Taylor series approximation and the Cannon algorithm enables distributed matrix exponentiation, though scalability is limited by cross-processor communication. The proposed dynamic subspace construction method further reduces the Hamiltonian dimension: when nat=10n_{\text{at}}=10, the dimension is reduced to 5.63%5.63\% of the full Hamiltonian, with a memory footprint of only 0.32%0.32\%. Results show that this framework significantly accelerates non-unitary evolution, providing a feasible solution for simulating large-scale open quantum systems where the number of dissipative channels MM is much larger than the Hamiltonian dimension NN.
