at zero temperature and zero bias, while for super-Ohmic ( s> 1) spectral densities this transition disappears. In this paper, we consider the influence of the phonon-bath spectral density on the nonequilibrium dynamics of a quantum dot with electron-phonon interactions described by the extended Holstein model. Using the reduced density matrix formalism combined with the multilayer multiconfiguration time-dependent Hartree approach, we investigate the dynamic response, the time scales for relaxation, as well as the existence of multiple long-lived solutions as the system-bath coupling changes from the sub- to the super-Ohmic cases. Bistability is shown to diminish for increasing powers of s similar to the spin-boson case. However, the physical mechanism and the dependence on the model parameters such as the typical bath frequency ωc and the polaron shift λ are rather distinct.
