Quantum master equation from the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis
Peter O'Donovan, Philipp Strasberg, Kavan Modi +2
We use the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis to derive a quantum master equation for a system weakly coupled to a chaotic finite-sized bath prepared in a pure state. We show tha…

First Principles Numerical Demonstration of Emergent Decoherent Histories
Philipp Strasberg, Teresa E. Reinhard, Joseph Schindler
Within the histories formalism the decoherence functional is a formal tool to investigate the emergence of classicality in isolated quantum systems, yet an explicit evaluation of i…
