Approach to equilibrium in Markovian open quantum systems
Abstract
In this paper, we study the evolution of Markovian open quantum systems, whose dynamics are governed by the von Neumann-Lindblad equations. Our goal is to prove the return-to-equilibrium property for systems of infinite degrees of freedom under quantum detailed balance condition.
