Non-Markovian dynamics of open quantum system with memory

Journal Article · · Annals of Physics

Highlights: • Non-Markovian master equation for open quantum system with power-law memory is proposed. • Non-Markovian dynamics of two-level quantum system with memory is described. • Solutions of non-Markovian quantum master equations are derived. • Complete positivity and bi-positivity in non-Markovian quantum dynamics with memory are described. • Exact solution of non-Markovian equations of system with memory is proposed. In this paper, non-Markovian generalization of master equation for open quantum system is proposed. Non-Markovian dynamics of two-level quantum system with memory and interaction with environment is described. To describe this system, the Gorini–Kossakowski–Sudarshan equation for open quantum states is generalized by taking into account power-law fading memory. The non-Markovian quantum processes with power-law memory are described by using integration and differentiation of non-integer orders. Complete positivity and bi-positivity in non-Markovian quantum dynamics with memory are described. An example of two-level quantum systems with power-law memory is suggested. Exact solution of the non-Markovian master equations of two-level open quantum systems with memory is derived.
