| contents | Simulation of open quantum systems is an area of active research in quantum algorithms. In this work, we revisit the connection between Markovian open-system dynamics and averages of Hamiltonian real-time evolutions, which we refer to as Hamiltonian twirling channels. By applying the Lévy-Khintchine representation theorem, we clarify when and how a dissipative dynamics can be realized using Hamiltonian twirling channels. Guided by the general theory, we explore Hamiltonian twirling with Gaussian, compound Poisson and symmetric stable distributions and their algorithmic implications. These give wide classes of Lindbladians that can be simulated in $Θ(t^{1/α})$ Hamiltonian simulation time without any extra ancilla or other quantum gates for $1\le α\le 2$. Moreover, we prove that these time complexities are asymptotically optimal using an information theoretic approach, which, to the best of our knowledge, is the first result of lower bounds on fast-forwarding simulation algorithms. |
