Thermalization of quantum systems by finite baths
Jochen Gemmer, Mathias Michel
We consider a discrete quantum system coupled to a finite bath, which may consist of only one particle, in contrast to the standard baths which usually consist of continua of oscil…
Non-Markovian quantum dynamics: Correlated projection superoperators and Hilbert space averaging
Heinz-Peter Breuer, Jochen Gemmer, Mathias Michel
The time-convolutionless (TCL) projection operator technique allows a systematic analysis of the non-Markovian quantum dynamics of open systems. We introduce a class of projection…
Emergence of thermodynamic behavior within composite quantum systems
Guenter Mahler, Jochen Gemmer, Mathias Michel
Entanglement within a given device provides a potential resource for quantum information processing. Entanglement between system and environment leads to decoherence (thus suppress…
From Pure Schroedingerian to Statistical Dynamics
Jochen Gemmer, Mathias Michel
Many processes in nature seem to be entirely controlled by transition rates and the corresponding statistical dynamics. Some of them are in essence quantum, like the decay of excit…
