Recent years have witnessed an explosion of interest in quantum devices for the production,
storage, and transfer of energy. This Colloquium concentrates on the field of quantum …

Since the pioneering works by Landau, Zener, Stückelberg, and Majorana (LZSM), it has
been known that driving a quantum two-level system results in tunneling between its states …

Over the last decade impressive progress has been made in the theoretical understanding
of transport properties of clean, one-dimensional quantum lattice systems. Many physically …

Quantum dynamical maps provide suitable mathematical representation of quantum
evolutions. When representing quantum states by density operators, the evident …

We explore the role of exceptional points and complex eigenvalues on the occurrence of the
quantum Mpemba effect. To this end, we study a two-level driven dissipative system …

The dynamical convergence of a system to the thermal distribution, or Gibbs state, is a
standard assumption across all of the physical sciences. The Gibbs state is determined just …

The field of classical stochastic processes forms a major branch of mathematics. Stochastic
processes are, of course, also very well studied in biology, chemistry, ecology, geology …

Open systems of coupled qubits are ubiquitous in quantum physics. Finding a suitable
master equation to describe their dynamics is therefore a crucial task that must be …

Derivation of a quantum master equation for a system weakly coupled to a bath which takes
into account nonsecular effects, but nevertheless has the mathematically correct Gorini …

Quantum Thermodynamics is a continuous dialogue between two independent theories:
Thermodynamics and Quantum Mechanics. Whenever the two theories have addressed the …
