Lecture Notes on the Theory of Open Quantum Systems
by Daniel A. Lidar
Publisher: arXiv.org 2019
Number of pages: 131
Description:
This is a self-contained set of lecture notes covering various aspects of the theory of open quantum system, at a level appropriate for a one-semester graduate course. The main emphasis is on completely positive maps and master equations, both Markovian and non-Markovian.

Principles of a 2nd Quantum Mechanics: Indeterminism, Non-locality, Unification
by Mioara Mugur-Schächter - arXiv.org
A qualitative representation of microstates is established quite independently of the quantum mechanical mathematical formalism. The foundations of an intelligible reconstruction of the Hilbert-Dirac formulation of Quantum Mechanics is developed.

Realism-Completeness-Universality interpretation of quantum mechanics
by Petr Hajicek - arXiv
The book gives a consequent and mathematical formulation to the interpretation of quantum mechanics that is often met among practical physicists. The book ought to be accessible to students that finished the standard course of quantum mechanics.

Quantum Transients
by A. del Campo, G. Garcia-Calderon, J. G. Muga - arXiv
Quantum transients are temporary features of matter waves before they reach a stationary regime. Transients may arise after the preparation of an unstable initial state or due to a sudden interaction or a change in the boundary conditions.

Quantum Dissipative Systems
by F. Guinea, E. Bascones, M.J. Calderon
An interesting topic of quantum mechanics is the study of open quantum systems. By it, we mean a simple quantum system, described by one or a few degrees of freedom, interacting with a background characterized by a continuum of excitations.
