Here we consider the problem of time reversal of a subsystem of discrete states coupled to an external environment characterized by a continuum of states, into which they generally decay. It is shown that, by flipping the discrete-continuum coupling from an Hermitian to a non-Hermitian interaction, thus resulting in a non unitary dynamics, time reversal of the subsystem of discrete states can be achieved, while the continuum of states is not reversed. Exact time reversal requires frequency degeneracy of the discrete states,or large frequency mismatch among the discrete states as compared to the strength of indirect coupling mediated by the continuum. Interestingly, periodic and frequent switch of the discrete-continuum coupling results in a frozen dynamics of the subsystem of discrete states.展开更多
