Description:
This text will survey the foundations of quantum mechanics, basic techniques for its application to the real world, and a number of standard examples. The design of this course is based upon the assumption that you have already had a previous (undergraduate) course in quantum mechanics.

Quantum Dissipative Systemsby 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.

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.
