We describe how to characterize dynamical phase transitions in open quantum systems from a purely dynamical perspective, namely, through the statistical behavior of quantum jump trajectories. This approach goes beyond considering only…

Simulation methods based on stochastic realizations of state vector evolutions are commonly used tools to solve open quantum system dynamics, both in the Markovian and non-Markovian regime. Here, we address the question of waiting time…

We investigate the relation between non-Hermitian Hamiltonian and Lindblad dynamics in nonequilibrium open quantum systems. Non-Hermitian models can extend phase diagrams and enable sensing advantages, but such effects often rely on…

We describe our recent proposal of a path integral formulation of classical Hamiltonian dynamics. Which leads us here to a new attempt at hybrid dynamics, which concerns the direct coupling of classical and quantum mechanical degrees of…

We formulate a discrete two-state stochastic process with elementary rules that give rise to Born statistics and reproduce the probabilities from the Schr\"odinger equation under an associated Hamiltonian matrix, which we identify. We…

We define the hitting time for a model of continuous-time open quantum walks in terms of quantum jumps. Our starting point is a master equation in Lindblad form, which can be taken as the quantum analogue of the rate equation for a…

The dynamics of open quantum systems is often modelled using master equations, which describe the expected outcome of an experiment (i.e., the average over many realizations of the same dynamics). Quantum trajectories, instead, model the…

We investigate a novel type of conditional dynamic that occurs in the strongly-driven Jaynes-Cummings model with dissipation. Extending the work of Alsing and Carmichael [Quantum Opt. {\bf 3}, 13 (1991)], we present a combined numerical and…

Recently it has been shown that the evolution of open quantum systems may be ``unraveled'' into individual ``trajectories,'' providing powerful numerical and conceptual tools. In this letter we use quantum trajectories to study mesoscopic…

Hamiltonian theory of hybrid quantum-classical systems is used to study dynamics of the classical subsystem coupled to different types of quantum systems. It is shown that the qualitative properties of orbits of the classical subsystem…

For the time development of a single system in the quantum jump approach or for quantum trajectories one requires the conditional (reduced) Hamiltonian between jumps and the reset operator after a jump. Explicit expressions for them are…

The stochastic methods in Hilbert space have been used both from a fundamental and a practical point of view. The result we report here concerns only the idea of applying these methods to model the evolution of quantum systems and does not…

We present a method to study rare nonadiabatic dynamics in open quantum systems using transition path sampling and quantum jump trajectories. As with applications of transition path sampling to classical dynamics, the method does not rely…

We investigate quantum walks in multiple dimensions with different quantum coins. We augment the model by assuming that at each step the amplitudes of the coin state are multiplied by random phases. This model enables us to study in detail…
