We develop a mathematical description of the decoherence caused by "spin baths", such as nuclear spins or magnetic impurities. In contrast to the usual oscillator bath models of quantum environments, decoherence in the spin bath can occur…
A qubit (containing two quantum states, 1 and 2), is coupled to a control register (state 3), which is subject to telegraph noise. We study the time evolution of the density matrix $\rho$ of an electron which starts in some coherent state…

Effective descriptions accounting for the evolution of quantum systems that are acted on by a bath are desirable. As the number of bath degrees of freedom increases and full quantum simulations turn out computationally prohibitive, simpler…
We study the evolution of spin-orbital correlations in an inhomogeneous quantum system with an impurity replacing a doublon by a holon orbital degree of freedom. Spin-orbital entanglement is large when spin correlations are…
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…
