We study the decoherence induced by the environment over a composite quantum system, comprising two coupled subsystems A and B, which may be a harmonic or an upside-down oscillators. We analyze the case in which the B-subsystem is in direct…

We study decoherence of one, two, and $n$ non-interacting qubits. Decoherence, measured in terms of purity, is calculated in linear response approximation, making use of the spectator configuration. The environment and its interaction with…
We have in mind a register of qubits for an quantum information system, and consider its decoherence in an idealized but typical situation. Spontaneous decay and other couplings to the far environment considered as the world outside the…
It has long been recognized that emission of radiation from atoms is not an intrinsic property of individual atoms themselves, but it is largely affected by the characteristics of the photonic environment and by the collective interaction…
We study the dynamical behavior of two initially entangled qubits, each locally coupled to an environment embodied by an interacting spin chain. We consider energy-exchange qubit-environment couplings resulting in a rich and highly non…
We solve for the dynamics of a pair of spins, coupled to each other and also to an environmental sea of oscillators. The environment mediates an indirect interaction between the spins, causing both mutual coherence effects and dissipation.…
The interaction of a quantum system with its environment causes decoherence, setting a fundamental limit on the suitability of a system for quantum information processing. However, we show that if the quantum system consists of coupled…
It has been claimed that decoherence of open quantum systems explains the tendency of macroscopic systems to exhibit quasiclassical behavior. We show that quasiclassicality is in fact an unremarkable property, characterizing generic…
