Recent years have seen tremendous progress in the theoretical understanding of quantum
systems driven dissipatively by coupling to different baths at their edges. This was possible …

Open quantum systems (OQSs) cannot always be described with the Markov approximation,
which requires a large separation of system and environment time scales. An overview is …

Quantum mechanics provides the most accurate microscopic description of the world around
us, yet the interface between quantum mechanics and biology is only now being explored …

We propose a method to study the thermodynamic behaviour of small systems beyond the
weak coupling and Markovian approximation, which is different in spirit from conventional …

Chain-mapping techniques in combination with the time-dependent density matrix
renormalization group are a powerful tool for the simulation of open-system quantum …

We identify the conditions that guarantee equivalence of the reduced dynamics of an open
quantum system (OQS) for two different types of environments—one a continuous bosonic …

Quantum systems are invariably open, evolving under surrounding influences rather than in
isolation. Standard open quantum system methods eliminate all information on the …

In the past decade, much theoretical research has focused on studying the strong coupling
between organic molecules (or quantum emitters, in general) and light modes. The …

A quantum system weakly coupled to a zero-temperature environment will relax, via
spontaneous emission, to its ground-state. However, when the coupling to the environment …

We study the sensitivity of thermometric probes that are composed of N spins coupled to a
sample prepared at temperature T. Our analysis extends beyond the weak-coupling limit into …
