Number of steady states of quantum evolutions

arXiv:2404.00440 · doi:10.1038/s41598-024-64040-5

Abstract

We prove sharp universal upper bounds on the number of steady and asymptotic states of discrete- and continuous-time Markovian evolutions of open quantum systems. We show that the bounds depend only on the dimension of the system and not on the details of the dynamics. A comparison with similar bounds deriving from a recent spectral conjecture for Markovian evolutions is also provided.
