We propose that nonequilibrium quantum criticality in open systems at both zero and finite temperatures can be described by a master equation of the Lindblad form. We derive this equation from a system coupling microscopic to a heat bath.…
The majority of quantum open system models in the literature are simplistic in the sense that they only explicitly account for that part of the environment that directly interacts with the system of interest. A quantum open system with an…
We consider quantum systems, whose dynamical symmetry groups are semisimple Lie groups, which can be split or decay into two subsystems of the same symmetry. We prove that the only states of such a system that factorize upon splitting are…
We show that the Hilbert-Schmidt distance, unlike the trace distance, between quantum states is generally not monotonic for open quantum systems subject to Lindblad semigroup dynamics. Sufficient conditions for contractivity of the…

Non-equilibrium steady states are a focal point of research in the study of open quantum systems. Previous variational algorithms for searching these steady states have suffered from resource-intensive implementations due to vectorization…
We study gauge fixing in the generalized Gupta-Bleuler quantization. In this method physical states are defined to be simultaneous null eigenstates of a set of quantum invariants. We apply the method to a solvable model proposed by…
