Speed limits and thermodynamic uncertainty relations for quantum systems governed by non-Hermitian Hamiltonian

Non-Hermitian Hamiltonians play a crucial role in the description of open quantum systems and nonequilibrium dynamics. In this paper, we derive trade-off relations for systems governed by non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, focusing on the Margolus-Levitin and Mandelstam-Tamm bounds, which are quantum speed limits originally derived in isolated quantum dynamics. We extend these bounds to the case of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians and derive additional bounds on the ratio of the standard deviation to the mean of an observable, which take the same form as the thermodynamic uncertainty relation. As an example, we apply these bounds to the continuous measurement formalism in open quantum dynamics, where the dynamics is described by discontinuous jumps and smooth evolution induced by the non-Hermitian Hamiltonian. Our work provides a unified perspective on the quantum speed limit and thermodynamic uncertainty relations in open quantum dynamics from the viewpoint of the non-Hermitian Hamiltonian, extending the results of previous studies.
