When Are Open Quantum Systems Needed and Basic Language. Reduced Dynamics# Lindblad Equation Derivation. What Are The Approximations Used. Properties of The Lindblad Equation# Decoupling Between Coherences And Diagonal Elements How to Solve The Lindblad Equation and Properties of The Steady-state Depending On Time and Students Interests The Following Examples Will Be Studied# Decoherence a Undesired Effect of The Environment. Decoherence In Quantum Information and Quantum to Classical Transition. Sometimes The Environment Is Useful (enaqt, Quantum Transport, Quantum Biology) Quantum Thermodynamics# Multiple Environments Are Even Better. Quantum Heat Machines and Thermalization. Determining If Quantum Provides Any Advantage Quantum Noise# Effects in Quantum Technologies# Noise and Open Quantum Systems. Measurements and Open Quantum Systems. Learning Outcomes# at The End of The Course The Students Will Know# 1. How to Model a Non-isolated Quantum System and to Obtain Basic Intuitions Regarding Its Behavior. 2. Be Familiar With Basic Modeling of Noise. 3. How to Write and Solve The Dynamical Equations of a System Under The Influence of Its Surroundings, Starting From a Microscopic Model. 4. Be Familiar With Basic Modeling of Decoherence.
