Colloquium: Non-Markovian dynamics in open quantum systems

HP Breuer, EM Laine, J Piilo, B Vacchini - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2016 - APS
The dynamical behavior of open quantum systems plays a key role in many applications of
quantum mechanics, examples ranging from fundamental problems, such as the …

Dynamics of non-Markovian open quantum systems

I De Vega, D Alonso - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2017 - APS
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 …

Quantum non-Markovianity: characterization, quantification and detection

Á Rivas, SF Huelga, MB Plenio - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
We present a comprehensive and up-to-date review of the concept of quantum non-
Markovianity, a central theme in the theory of open quantum systems. We introduce the …

[BOOK][B] Open quantum systems

A Rivas, SF Huelga - 2012 - Springer
To write an introduction to the dynamics of open quantum systems may seem at first a
complicated, albeit perhaps unnecessary, task. On the one hand, the field is quite broad and …

Measure for the degree of non-Markovian behavior of quantum processes in open systems

HP Breuer, EM Laine, J Piilo - Physical review letters, 2009 - APS
We construct a general measure for the degree of non-Markovian behavior in open quantum
systems. This measure is based on the trace distance which quantifies the distinguishability …

Quantum resource theories

E Chitambar, G Gour - Reviews of modern physics, 2019 - APS
Quantum resource theories (QRTs) offer a highly versatile and powerful framework for
studying different phenomena in quantum physics. From quantum entanglement to quantum …

Probing the relaxation towards equilibrium in an isolated strongly correlated one-dimensional Bose gas

S Trotzky, YA Chen, A Flesch, IP McCulloch… - Nature physics, 2012 - nature.com
The problem of how complex quantum systems eventually come to rest lies at the heart of
statistical mechanics. The maximum-entropy principle describes which quantum states can …

Entanglement and non-Markovianity of quantum evolutions

Á Rivas, SF Huelga, MB Plenio - Physical review letters, 2010 - APS
We address the problem of quantifying the non-Markovian character of quantum time
evolutions of general systems in contact with an environment. We introduce two different …

Dynamical maps beyond Markovian regime

D Chruściński - Physics Reports, 2022 - Elsevier
Quantum dynamical maps provide suitable mathematical representation of quantum
evolutions. When representing quantum states by density operators, the evident …

Floquet states in open quantum systems

T Mori - Annual Review of Condensed Matter Physics, 2023 - annualreviews.org
In Floquet engineering, periodic driving is used to realize novel phases of matter that are
inaccessible in thermal equilibrium. For this purpose, the Floquet theory provides us a recipe …
