Open quantum systems : an introduction

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the quantum Markov process in closed quantum systems and time evolution in open quantum systems as a mathematical structure, and present a mathematical model for the non-Markovian case.

Between classical and quantum

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss three ways in which classical physics has so far been believed to emerge from quantum physics, namely in the limit h -> 0 of small Planck's constant (in a finite system), and through decoherence and consistent histories.

Concepts and Methods in the Theory of Open Quantum Systems

TL;DR: The central physical concepts and mathematical techniques used in the theory of open quantum systems are reviewed and the corresponding dynamical evolution equations are derived for the Markovian as well as for the non-Markovian case.

Procedures for Converting among Lindblad, Kraus and Matrix Representations of Quantum Dynamical Semigroups

TL;DR: In this article, eigenvalue methods are presented by which canonical Kraus and Lindblad operator sum representations can be computed for quantum process tomography, the statistical estimation of superoperators and their generators, from a wide variety of experimental data.
