Introduction to the Time Evolution of Open Quantum Systems
by Angel Rivas, Susana F. Huelga
Publisher: arXiv 2011
Number of pages: 101
Description:
We revise fundamental concepts in the dynamics of open quantum systems in the light of modern developments in the field. Our aim is to present a unified approach to the quantum evolution of open systems that incorporates the concepts and methods traditionally employed by different communities.
