Recent years have seen tremendous progress in the theoretical understanding of quantum
systems driven dissipatively by coupling to different baths at their edges. This was possible …

Recent experimental developments in diverse areas—ranging from cold atomic gases to
light-driven semiconductors to microcavity arrays—move systems into the focus which are …

By generalizing concepts from classical stochastic dynamics, we establish the basis for a
theory of metastability in Markovian open quantum systems. Partial relaxation into long-lived …

Tight bosonic analogs of free-fermionic symmetry-protected topological phases, and their
associated edge-localized excitations, have long evaded the grasp of condensed-matter …

Decoherence plays a major role in our current understanding of the conceptual foundations
of quantum physics. In many instances, decoherence is also a threat that must be countered …

Markovian open quantum systems display complicated relaxation dynamics. The spectral
gap of the Liouvillian characterizes the asymptotic decay rate toward the steady state, but it …

We study the quantum dynamics of a many-body system subject to coherent evolution and
coupled to a non-Markovian bath. We propose a technique to unravel the non-Markovian …

We study the dissipative dynamics of a fermionic superfluid in the presence of two-body
losses. We use a variational approach for the Lindblad dynamics and obtain dynamical …

Open many-body quantum systems have attracted renewed interest in the context of
quantum information science and quantum transport with biological clusters and ultracold …

The existence of multistability in quantum systems beyond the mean-field approximation
remains an intensely debated open question. Quantum fluctuations are finite-size …
