Quantum indirect damping autocorrelation functions

Boulil et al. [8] have obtained the following expression for the quantum indirect damped autocorrelation function in representation II ... 

Here, t/(f) is the reduced time evolution operator of the driven damped quantum harmonic oscillator. Recall that representation II was used in preceding treatments, taking into account the indirect damping of the hydrogen bond. After rearrangements, the autocorrelation function (45) takes the form [8]... 

Note that this last expression is nothing but the closed form [90] of the autocorrelation function obtained (as an infinite sum) in quantum representation III by Boulil et al.[87] in their initial quantum approach of indirect damping. Although the small approximation involved in the quantum representation III and avoided in the quantum representation II, both autocorrelation functions are of the same form and lead to the same spectral densities (as discussed later).
