Memory effects arise in many complex systems, from protein folding, to the spreading of epidemics and financial decisions. While so-called non-Markovian dynamics is common in larger systems with interacting components, observations in…

Entanglement in continuous-variable Gaussian systems is a key resource, and common reservoirs can both suppress and generate correlations. Existing work focused on pre-entangled states or Markovian baths, leaving open whether separable…

The emergence of memory is a hallmark feature of non-Markovian dynamics. However, the type of memory -- classical or quantum -- required to realize certain dynamics remains unknown. We study the quantum homogenizer as a minimal model of…
