Stochastic Feshbach Projection for the Dynamics of Open Quantum Systems.
We present a stochastic projection formalism for the description of quantum dynamics in bosonic or spin environments. The Schrödinger equation in the coherent state representation with respect to the environmental degrees of freedom can be reformulated by employing the Feshbach partitioning technique for open quantum systems based on the introduction of suitable non-Hermitian projection operato...
متن کاملNon-Markovian stochastic description of quantum transport in photosynthetic systems
We analyze several aspects of the transport dynamics in the LH1-RC core of purple bacteria, which consists basically in a ring of antenna molecules that transport the energy into a target molecule, the reaction center, placed in the center of the ring. We show that the periodicity of the system plays an important role to explain the relevance of the initial state in the transport efficiency. Th...
متن کاملQuantum Mechanics of Open Systems and Stochastic Maps
The time dependence is completely described by the unitary matrix U(t, t0), or equivalently, by the hermitian Hamiltonian matrix H(t). This type of evolution is natural, but it is not the most general nor adequate for many applications such as relaxation phenomena and irreversibility. Quantum systems can rarely be thought of as being in total isolation. A system which is interacting with its su...
متن کاملStochastic description of delayed systems.
We study general stochastic birth and death processes including delay. We develop several approaches for the analytical treatment of these non-Markovian systems, valid, not only for constant delays, but also for stochastic delays with arbitrary probability distributions. The interplay between stochasticity and delay and, in particular, the effects of delay in the fluctuations and time correlati...
متن کاملopen quantum systems
Quantum mechanics must be regarded as open systems. On one hand, this is due to the fact that, like in classical physics, any realistic system is subjected to a coupling to an uncontrollable environment which influences it in a non-negligible way. The theory of open quantum systems thus play a major role in many applications of quantum physics since perfect isolation of quantum system is not po...
