Abstract

Modelling quantum system is notoriously difficult, posing a challenge for studying quantum devices in real world settings, where interactions with surrounding particles inevitably influence the device. Our novel computational tool solves this challenge by automatically compressing this environmental influence, allowing approximation-free predictions.
