The origin of the phenomenological deterministic laws that approximately govern the
quasiclassical domain of familiar experience is considered in the context of the quantum …

The Handbook of Feynman Path Integrals appears just fifty years after Richard Feynman
published his pioneering paper in 1948 entitled" Space-Time Approach to Non-Relativistic …

The dynamical evolution of a quantum register of arbitrary length coupled to an environment
of arbitrary coherence length is predicted within a relevant model of decoherence. The …

Reviewing macroscopic quantum phenomena and quantum dissipation, from the
phenomenology of magnetism and superconductivity to the presentation of alternative …

Work belongs to the most basic notions in thermodynamics but it is not well understood in
quantum systems, especially in open quantum systems. By introducing a novel concept of …

In this paper, the exact non-Markovian dynamics of open quantum systems in the presence
of initial system-reservoir correlations is investigated for a photonic cavity system coupled to …

Squeezing of a thermal bath introduces features absent in an open quantum system
interacting with an uncorrelated (zero squeezing) thermal bath. The resulting dynamics …

We develop a nonrelativistic formulation for the quantum dynamics of an electron coupled to
its own radiation field. For this purpose, we have applied the Feynman-Vernon approach to …

The damped harmonic oscillator is a workhorse for the study of dissipation in quantum
mechanics. However, despite its simplicity, this system has given rise to some …

The dynamics of an open quantum system exhibiting the quantum Brownian motion is
analyzed when the coupling between the system and its environment is nonlinear, and the …
