Input-output theory is a well-known tool in quantum optics and ubiquitous in the description of quantum systems probed by light. Owing to the generality of the setup it describes, the theory finds application in a wide variety of…

Non-relativistic quantum theory of non-interacting particles in the spacetime containing a region with closed time-like curves (time-machine spacetime) is considered with the help of the path-integral technique. It is argued that, in…
An integration by parts formula is the foundation for stochastic analysis on path spaces over a (finite dimensional) Riemannian manifold or over $R^n$, from which we may deduce the operator $d$ is closable and define the Laplacian operator…
Path integrals have, over the years, proven to be an extremely versatile tool for simulating the dynamics of open quantum systems. The initial limitations of applicability of these methods in terms of the size of the system has steadily…

The structure of transformation semigroups on a finite set is analyzed by introducing a hierarchy of functions mapping subsets to subsets. The resulting hierarchy of semigroups has a corresponding hierarchy of minimal ideals, or kernels.…
