Theory of Open Quantum Systems, Paperback by Breuer, Heinz-Peter; Petruccione.... Theory of Open Quantum Systems, Paperback by Breuer, Heinz-Peter; Petruccione, Francesco, ISBN 0199213909, ISBN-13 9780199213900, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Assuming that readers have no more than a basic understanding of quantum mechanics and of elementary concepts of probability, Breuer (physics, Albert-Ludwigs U.) and Petruccione (quantum research, U. of KwaZulu-Natal) join forces to give graduate students, academics and researchers with fundamental questions in the field and its applications. They begin by reviewing probability in classical and quantum physics, covering classical probability theory and stochastic processes and quantum probability, then turn to density matrix theory, explaining quantum master equations and decoherence. They then cover stochastic processes and dynamics in Hilbert space, stochastic simulation methods, and applications to quantum optical systems; non-Markovian quantum processes such as projection operator techniques and dynamics in physical systems; and relativisitic quantum processes, including measurements in relativistic quantum mechanics and open quantum electrodynamics.
