Contents:
Quantum theory of irreversibility: open systems and continuum mechanics / Geoffrey L. Sewell -- Selected apsects of Markovian and non-Markovian quantum master equations / Karl Lendi -- Apsects of open quantum dynamics / Antoine Royer -- Concepts and methods in the theory of open quantum systems / Heinz-Peter Breuer, Francesco Petruccione -- Decoherence-free subspaces and subsystems / Daniel A. Lidar, K. Birgitta Whaley -- Controlled quantum open systems / Robert Alicki -- Three different manifestations of the quantum zeno effect / Paolo Facchi, Saverio Pascazio -- Progressive decoherence and total environmental disentanglement / Lajos Diósi -- Dynamics of dissipative quantum systems: from path integrals to master equations / Joachim Ankerhold -- Quantum entropies in a classical context / Mark Fannes -- Irreversibility and the foundations of quantum mechanics / GianCarlo Ghirardi -- An attempt at relativistic spontaneous localization / Alberto Rimini -- The quantum jump approach and quantum trajectories / Gerhard C. Hegerfeldt -- Irreversibility, resonances and rigged Hilbert spaces / Ioannis E. Antoniou, Manolo Gadella -- Markovian master equations and resonances in quantum open systems / Andrzej Kossakowski -- A new topology for an axiom of quantum mechanics / Arno Bohm, Sujeewa Wickramasekara -- The importance of boundary conditions in quantum mechanics / Rafael de la Madrid -- Time asymmetric quantum mechanics and relativistic resonances / Piotr Kielanowski -- Irreversibility in the framework of Hermitian and non-Hermitian treatments of resonance states / Cleanthes A. Nicolaides.
Summary: This set of tutorial reviews is dedicated to all aspects of irreversibility and time asymmetry in quantum mechanics. The main themes addressed are: - theoretical aspects of quantum irreversible dynamics - open quantum systems and applications - foundational aspects of irreversible quantum dynamics - asymmetric time evolution and resonances This volume will benefit graduate students and researchers looking for a readable account of the current status of the field. It is also suited for lecturers looking for advanced material for their courses and seminars.
