Fluctuation and dissipation in memoryless open quantum evolutions

Abstract
Von Neumann entropy rate for open quantum systems is, in general, written in terms of entropy production and entropy flow rates, encompassing the second law of thermodynamics. When the open-quantum-system evolution corresponds to a quantum dynamical semigroup, we find a decomposition of the infinitesimal generator of the dynamics, that allows to relate the von Neumann entropy rate with the divergence-based quantum Fisher information, at any time. Applied to quantum Gaussian channels that are dynamical semigroups, our decomposition leads to the quantum analog of the generalized classical de Bruijn identity, thus expressing the quantum fluctuation-dissipation relation in that kind of channels. Finally, from this perspective, we analyze how stationarity arises.
