Dynamics in the spin-boson model by maximum entropy moment imaging
The spin-spin time correlation function of the spin-boson model is studied using a maximum entropy imaging procedure founded on knowledge of early time derivatives or moments of the corresponding spectral density. The coherent-incoherent boundary is reproduced in agreement with the results of dynamical path-integral Monte Carlo and the procedure is shown to be stable numerically at both long time and low temperature.
