Abstract
We consider an open quantum system governed -body Lindblad equation and study mean-field limits in this setting. We prove that the -particle dynamics converges, in the sense of quantum relative entropy, to the tensorized solution of the limiting nonlinear equation. More precisely, we establish explicit bounds of order on the relative entropy between the -particle density operator and the corresponding product state, thereby providing a quantitative propagation of chaos.
