Quantum decoherence plays a pivotal role in the dynamical description of the quantum-to-
classical transition and is the main impediment to the realization of devices for quantum …

The advent of quantum devices, which exploit the two essential elements of quantum
physics, coherence and entanglement, has sparked renewed interest in the control of open …

This work is concerned with determination of the steady-state structure of time-independent
Lindblad master equations, especially those possessing more than one steady state. The …

The control of quantum systems is of fundamental scientific interest and promises powerful
applications and technologies. Impressive progress has been achieved in isolating quantum …

Over the course of the past decade, decoherence has become a ubiquitous scienti? c term
popular in all kinds of research, from fundamental theories of quantum physics to …

Holography is a cornerstone characterization and imaging technique that can be applied to
the full electromagnetic spectrum, from X-rays to radio waves or even particles such as …

Geometric and holonomic quantum computation utilizes intrinsic geometric properties of
quantum-mechanical state spaces to realize quantum logic gates. Since both geometric …

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 …

Low-field nuclear spin singlet states may be used to store nuclear spin order in a room
temperature liquid for a time much longer than the spin-lattice relaxation time constant T 1 …

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 …
