Shortcuts to adiabaticity (STA) are fast routes to the final results of slow, adiabatic changes
of the controlling parameters of a system. The shortcuts are designed by a set of analytical …

Open quantum systems (OQSs) cannot always be described with the Markov approximation,
which requires a large separation of system and environment time scales. An overview is …

Exceptional points (EPs) correspond to degeneracies of open systems. These are attracting
much interest in optics, optoelectronics, plasmonics, and condensed matter physics. In the …

A state of an open quantum system is described by a density matrix, whose dynamics is
governed by a Liouvillian superoperator. Within a general framework, we explore …

We develop from first principles Markovian master equations suited for studying the time
evolution of a system evolving adiabatically while coupled weakly to a thermal bath. We …

With the advent of quantum technologies comes the requirement of building quantum
components able to store energy to be used whenever necessary, ie, quantum batteries. In …

Markovian reservoir engineering, in which time evolution of a quantum system is governed
by a Lindblad master equation, is a powerful technique in studies of quantum phases of …

Quantum information processing offers dramatic speedups, yet is susceptible to
decoherence, whereby quantum superpositions decay into mutually exclusive classical …

We propose a method to accelerate adiabatic dynamics of wave functions (WFs) in quantum
mechanics to obtain a final adiabatic state except for the spatially uniform phase in any …

Exceptional points (EPs) are degeneracies of classical and quantum open systems, which
are studied in many areas of physics including optics, optoelectronics, plasmonics, and …
