What is Non-Markovian Dynamics of a Single Excitation within Many-Body Dissipative Systems about?
We explore the dynamics of $N$ coupled atoms to a generic bosonic reservoir under specific system symmetries. In the regime of multiple atoms coupled to a single reservoir with identical couplings, we identify remarkable effects, notably that the initial configuration of the atomic excited state amplitudes strongly impacts the dynamics of the system and can even fully sever the system from its environment. Additionally, we find that steady state amplitudes of the excited states become independent of the choice of the reservoir. The framework introduced is applied to a structured photonic reservoir associated with a photonic crystal, where we show it reproduces previous theoretical and experimental results and it predicts superradiant behaviour within the single-excitation regime.
