Quantum Dissipative Systems
by F. Guinea, E. Bascones, M.J. Calderon
1998
Number of pages: 81
Description:
One of the most 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.

Shortcuts to Adiabaticity: Concepts, Methods, and Applicationsby D. Guery-Odelin, et al. - arXiv.org
Shortcuts to adiabaticity are fast routes to the final results of slow adiabatic changes of the controlling parameters of a system. The shortcuts are designed by a set of analytical and numerical methods suitable for different systems and conditions.

Introduction to the Time Evolution of Open Quantum Systemsby Angel Rivas, Susana F. Huelga - arXiv
We revise fundamental concepts in the dynamics of open quantum systems in the light of modern developments in the field. Our aim is to present a unified approach to the quantum evolution of open systems that incorporates the traditional concepts.
