Generalized CV Conjecture and Krylov Complexity in Two-Mode Hermitian Systems via Information Geometry

We extend the CV conjecture to quantum states of two-mode Hermitian systems using the framework of information geometry. Specifically, we conjecture that the Krylov complexity of a quantum state equals the volume of the Fubini-Study metric. To test this conjecture, we construct the wave functions for both closed and open two-mode systems. For the closed system, the wave function corresponds to the well-known two-mode squeezed state, while for the open system, we employ the second kind of Meixner polynomials to generate an open two-mode squeezed state. Remarkably, in both cases, the calculated Fubini-Study volume matches the Krylov complexity, providing analytic evidence for the generalized CV relation in this controlled two-mode setting. Our results establish a direct link between operator growth in Krylov space and geometric properties of quantum states, highlighting the potential applications of this framework in quantum information and quantum optics.

Krylov Complexity in early universe

The Lanczos algorithm offers a framework for constructing wave functions in closed and open quantum systems from their Hamiltonians. Since the early universe is inherently an open system, we employ this algorithm to investigate Krylov complexity across various cosmological phases: inflation, radiation domination (RD), and matter domination (MD). Our results highlight a clear distinction in Krylov complexity between the closed- and open-system methodologies. To accurately capture the influence of potentials during RD and MD, we examine a set of inflationary potentials, including the Higgs potential, $R^2$ inflation, and chaotic inflation, while incorporating violations of slow-roll conditions. This study is conducted in conformal time through the preheating stage. Numerically, we find that the evolution of Krylov complexity and Krylov entropy shows remarkable similarity across different potentials during RD and MD. Furthermore, we rigorously construct an open two-mode squeezed state using the second kind of Meixner polynomial. Based on this construction, we derive for the first time the evolution equations for the squeezing parameter $r_k$ and phase $ϕ_k$ in terms of the scale factor. Our analysis indicates that dissipative effects lead to rapid decoherence-like behavior. In addition, we observe that the inflationary universe behaves as a strongly dissipative system, whereas during the RD and MD epochs the universe exhibits weak dissipative characteristics. This work opens new perspectives for studying the universe from a quantum-informational viewpoint.

Inflationary power spectrum from the Lanczos algorithm

The generalized Lanczos algorithm can provide a universal method for constructing the wave function under the group structure of Hamiltonian. Based on this fact, we obtain an open two-mode squeezed state as the quantum origin for the curvature perturbation. In light of this wave function in the open system, we successfully develop a new method to calculate its corresponding power spectrum by using the Bogoliubov transformation. Unlike traditional approaches, we explicitly retain the Bogoliubov coefficients in terms of the squeezing amplitude \( r_k \) and the squeezing rotation angle \( ϕ_k \). As a result, the power spectrum of the open two-mode squeezed state will match that of the Bunch-Davies vacuum numerically. Furthermore, the derivation of the open two-mode squeezed state relies on the second kind Meixner polynomial (equivalent to the generalized Lanczos algorithm) and the symmetry of the Hamiltonian. Therefore, our research may offer a new insight into the calculation of the correlation functions through a group-theoretic perspective.
