The methods employ a mean-field\u0000approach to reduce the dimensionality of large-scale problems. Initially\u0000assuming the absence of correlations in the many-body state, this approach is\u0000built upon in two ways. First, we show how the mean-field approximation can be combined with matrix\u0000product operator methods to efficiently simulate the non-Markovian dynamics of\u0000a many-body system with strong coupling to multiple environments. We apply this\u0000method to calculate the threshold and photoluminescence for a realistic model\u0000of an organic laser.
