Lecture 2: Open quantum systems

Laurent Sanchez-Palencia

Matteo Carlesso

These lecture notes aim to provide a clear and comprehensive introduction to using open quantum system theory for quantum algorithms. The main arguments are Variational Quantum Algorithms, Quantum Error Correction, Dynamical Decoupling and Quantum Error Mitigation.

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.

Jan Dereziński, Wojciech De Roeck

The main aim of our lectures is to give a pedagogical introduction to various mathematical formalisms used to describe open quantum systems: completely positive semigroups, dilations of semigroups, quantum Langevin dynamics and the so-called Pauli-Fi
