Unification of Stochastic and Quantum Thermodynamics in Scalar Field Theory via a Model with Brownian Thermostat
T. Koide, F. Nicacio
We present a systematic procedure to derive a quantum master equation for thermal relaxation in real scalar field theory, expanding on the method proposed in [Koide and Nicacio, Ph…

Physical consequences of Lindbladian invariance transformations
Yohan Vianna de Almeida, Fernando Nicacio, Marcelo F. Santos
On its own, the invariance properties of Markovian master equations have mostly played a mathematical or computational role in the evaluation of quantum open system dynamics. Becau…

Complete Positivity and Thermal Relaxation in Quadratic Quantum Master Equations
F. Nicacio, T. Koide
The ultimate goal of this paper is to develop a systematic method for deriving quantum master equations that satisfy the requirements of a completely positive and trace-preserving…
